    uuum Olive oil bad??? Not where I come from .. All I use is olive oil
    Just because you use it, does not make it healthy.

    Do you want to tell that to the entire Mediterranean region? They live longer than anyone else (except maybe the Japanese), and they live on wine and olive oil. And the science backs this, not anecdotes.

    human beings invented science to control the masses

    In...a little late.

    BTW, everything is bad for you and you're all going to die...I've done my research.

    Well, that's partially true.

    It's 100% true...food is bad, beverages are bad, air is bad...everyone should just do themselves a favor and stop eating and breathing....

    the derp in this thread is astounding....

    I can't help but wonder if I'm feeding an owner of under-bridge real estate though.
    Oh i know how you feel. Lots of those types on this thread. In fact, i'm talking to one right now....

    Hahahaha. I LOVE it.

    Being called a troll when one disagrees. Nice try.
    I think it's funny that the trolls on this thread are the same 4-5 people over and over, and they are names that i recognize from trolling my posts last time i was on this site regularly, over 6 months ago. Trolling is what you guys do; it's not news to me.

    I have nothing to add that hasn't been said by people who have proven time and time again they know what they are talking about...

    Oil and Milk bad...hehe

    OP give it up I mean really...oil bad...that's why my blood panels have gotten so much better after ensuring I have changed my intake to include lots of olive oil, protiens and decent amounts of fruits and veggies along with whatever else I want including pizza, KFC and chocolate.

    Excuse me as I go make some pumpkin pie for my husband and the boys at work....after I eat my 3 eggs and 4 slices of bacon...pst eggs cooked in bacon FAT is yummy.

    Shucks. :blushing:

    Consider this: You get these so called 'trolls' over and over in whatever you post. Perhaps you should consider reevaluating what you post. People don't come out of the woodwork just to troll Rocbola.

    "Oh ****, Rocbola posted! Let's get over there and troll the thread!"
    "Hell yes!"

    Please provide evidence that oil is health compromising.
    You have been trolling on almost every post since i started on this site over a year ago. I have provided you with peer reviewed studies many, many times. I stopped trying to convince the willfully ignorant a long time ago. This thread was simply a short rant, not trying to convince anyone of anything.

    Well, clearly.

    I am not willfully ignorant. I consume olive oil and milk as part of what I consider a healthy diet. If you have evidence to the contrary I would really appreciate it if you could show me.
    Thanks :flowerforyou:

    Why so much hate? Are you all so anti-fruit that you think it will burn a hole in your stomach if you eat it? Nah, i think it's that you are all so addicted to oil and dairy that you get upset with any information that contradicts the lie you have been telling yourself. It's called "cognitive dissonance"

    You are assuming that non-vegans don't eat fruits and vegetables...
    Let me get this straight, you watched two movies (Forks Over Knives and Fat Sick and Nearly Dead) and now you have it all figured out... LAMO!!!

    Asking somebody for evidence that what they are saying is true is not trolling. He's also not the only one who asked.

    Just a FYI there are no bad foods. Individual foods need to be judged by their place in a complete diet.

    My conclusion.. after many.. "discussion" on there. is that are foods that are bad for one individual but not another. And no one should be telling another person that their observation of how food affects them is wrongs. if I say I eat X and Y happens therefore I cannot eat X because of Y.. and someone has a study or an opinion that is different or is not affected that way, I am automatically wrong, unless I have a better study to prove my point or a better formed well written out opinion. While i do think there are certain food everyone should avoid (would neverrrr post that list here. lol), I am more inclined to go with food being individual and affecting us all in such a way.. Even those of us without a food illness, allergy or other food-impacted disease. We really know so little about food and how it affects us, that even studies are just guides. I've read a ton of "studies" that claim to know the truth.. all contradicting each other. lol Just go through these forums for examples of them. Hey look at this study, X is bad for you.. no no no X is good for you, see here is study showing otherwise.. Confusing, counter productive and often without real merit.

    Actually, I'd never suggest one post lies. I suggest you reconsider your delivery of such opinions you have. Presentation is important.

    I keep reading things from people who say that "i've done my research, and decided to cut fruits out of my diet, because carbs are bad"

    But then they think that olive oil and milk are health foods!!!!

    And then they struggle and wonder why...

    OH MY GOSH. NO. You are posting YOUR truths. You can not argue with the RIDICULOUS amount of success people have had on this site. A very high number of them do not adhere to YOUR truths, yet have had success.

    Omg, there's a post about calories in cigarettes? Lol that's a record breaker and btw, olive oil is indeed healthy lol, so is grass fed organic milk .... I have a few quams with the average American store brand milk... But that could be considered nit picking lol

    Incorrect. I'm a vegan that converted after giving a whole foods diet a proper trial run. I thought "Forks Over Knives" was bull**** vegan propaganda the first time i saw it. The only reason that i was open minded about trying it is because i had known a cocky-as-hell vegan who told me about all the health benefits she had when she switched over. Even though i thought she was stuck up, i figured i would be ignorant to not be open minded. Then i found out for myself.

    What foods should everyone avoid? Not talking about specific individuals with specific issues - the remaining population?

    Have I trolled or attacked you in this thread? You may be confusing me with someone else, but I don't recall every post.

    In this particular post, you've made unsupported claims, personally attacked me, and dismissed my request to support your position.

    You are also misinformed. Please deactivate your account.
    First off, if misinformed people would have to deactivate their account, most of you wouldn't be here.

    Second, all i implied was that fruit is not something to cut out of your diet, and that olive oil and milk are not health foods.
    Why so much hate? Are you all so anti-fruit that you think it will burn a hole in your stomach if you eat it? Nah, i think it's that you are all so addicted to oil and dairy that you get upset with any information that contradicts the lie you have been telling yourself. It's called "cognitive dissonance"

    That's a new one.

    Usually it's sugar addicts....now we have oil addicts.
