There are no guarantee's, especially in a product that comes from a climate that is insect flush.ChipChocolatePancake wrote: »haha homemade chocolate may not be any healthier than store-bought, but at least I can guarantee there are no insect legs in it!
I dunno, insect legs are probably good sources of protein, and surely 'clean'?

Just think how pissed off the "clean eaters" are going to be 20 - 40 years from now (or whatever number gets them to the golden years) when they realize, it was all for nothing...
Actually you are wrong here. I'll explain why - once we leave certain foods from our diet we pretty much don't care about them.
I stopped eating ice cream when I was I think 14 - 15 years old. I would get severe chest congestion. The doc asked me to stop eating it for some time because they wanted to pin point the cause of these flares. Ice cream was the reason.
Anyway fast forward to 2015, I don't miss it one bit. It's been 28 years I haven't eaten ice cream.
I agree with you in a case of a medical issue, where you just can't eat a food without an adverse reaction. The instance I am referencing are groups who avoid certain foods because they think it will make them healthier and or better then the rest of us.

If eating high quality food is a major regret as you are lying on your deathbed, what a sad, empty life that must have been! That probably won't crack the top 5,000 things I'll have on my mind during the last moments of my life...
Must be great being such a special snowflake...

Glad it worked that way for you. I have some foods I'm highly allergic to, and there's still times I really want them even though I haven't had them in over 15 years. Luckily ice cream is not one

Anyways, OP, I'm not exactly a clean eater, but I do really try my hardest to not eat processed stuff/fast food, and I often make my own (healthier?) versions of things...haha homemade chocolate may not be any healthier than store-bought, but at least I can guarantee there are no insect legs in it!
Idk, OP came back and didn't seem in the least concerned that she insulted people.
She seemed pretty proud of insulting her friends, and tried to insult others in here multiple times during the thread.
Homemade chocolate?0 -
I am a clean eater. I shower everyday and wash my hands before every meal. To the cookie dough and pizza bingers who justify their behaviour by "keeping within their calorie goal" I ask a simple question: How long do you think that I would live if all I ate was 1.5 cups of white sugar everyday? It is exactly my calorie requirement so I have to assume from some of the posts here that it would be perfectly acceptable.
Please point out any one post that has suggested anyone is binge eating on cookie dough and or pizza??
Anyone recommending eating in moderation has not a single one time said they were binging or eating their ENTIRE daily calorie goal in that fashion regularly.
Reading comprehension- not your strong suit it seems.
Now I want cookie dough!0 -

Look people..she stated she needed inspirational clean eating friends since that is her goal. Insulting her for not being like you says more about you, then her. Let's lift up, and not knock down. We are all in this together with different goals. If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all. It is counterproductive to this site's goal, which is to help one another.0

The site's goal is to help one another?
Helping one another is knocking a friend who logs cookie dough in the diary publicly... yea that's helpful0 -

The thing is, everyone's standard for food is not the same, and I think that's why people on both sides aren't going to understand. What someone may think of as being fine to eat someone else may consider "bad" to eat. I mean, there were a couple instances I had 70% dark chocolate at breakfast. It wasn't even that much (less than an ounce), but a couple people (not on MFP) that knew I ate that thought that I shouldn't be doing that at breakfast.0

i guess you still don't get it..
food is not good or bad, so there is no need to assign a moralistic value to it.
food is just energy that fuels your body, period, end of story.0 -

I like sauerkraut... basically fermented, rotten cabbage.
