    This is about the dumbest reply I've ever seen. The stick can't be fiber unless you eat it. Inserting it as a suppository will give you no fiber whatsoever. Now, if you eat the stick, you'll need to weigh it first, but at least you are getting fiber that way. :tongue:

    Anticipating your next question….the stick is considered fiber.

    Yeah, I'm not going to trust Wikipedia. I'll just ask the homeless guy under the bridge. Thanks anyway.
    You won't trust Wiki but you'll trust an internet message board.

    The answer is that McDonald's is delicious and parents should let there kids have some from time to time.

    I was starting to think I was the only one who remembered this from her previous life.

    I demand proof of your claim that you have to eat it and that the stick does not provide colon-clearing benefits after being inserted you know where. And the source better be a homeless man under a bridge WITH a shopping cart. :drinker:

    Is there a scientific paper that shows carb consumption increases rudeness? Geez. Someone spent time writing back and offered a perfectly good answer and that's how you reply? :grumble:

    Sugar is a carbohydrate. Fiber is a carbohydrate. You see them listed on food labels because of regulations, laws, etc. You don't see other carbohydrates listed, like starch, because again, the food manufacturer is not required to do so by regulations, laws, etc. Thus the discrepancy between sugar plus fiber grams and carbohydrate grams.

    Now go ahead and ask that old guy under the bridge if he agrees.

    Wikipedia is not a perfectly good answer unless the question is "Would you please give me a mountain of possibly false information?"

    So you will ask on a random internet fitness forum and trust those answers, but you won't trust what's on wikipedia????
    Am I missing something?

    OP is a reincarnation. This may be a mispost, but in OP's previous mfp existence, she made some rather um, foolish, claims about parents whose their children eat food from McDonald's. So foolish that she deactivated mid-thread, only to come back months later to share this thread (and the drunken prison one) with us.

    Is it 2006? Wikipedia is a perfectly good source if you follow the citations. Something needs sources? Take it with a grain of salt.

    Wikipedia is a better source than someone's random, personal blog. The site IS also edited by professionals, not just randoms. It's been years since anyone could pull up a page and write whatever they want. Registration's required, certain article require vetting before an editing goes through, etc.

    You don't trust Wikipedia... so you ask an internet forum full of random people.

    Yeesh.

    At least follow the source links on Wikipedia.

    Maybe we should start a new thread just for JLaw gifs. I'll post the mint spilling one over and over.

    OP I'm not sure what your deal is, you ask a question, someone writes you an answer, an you spit in their face about it. You could have easily just not responded if you didn't like it. Seems aggressively rude.

    this ^^ there are many great people on this site with A LOT of knowledge about this stuff. You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar!

    I love the people who think wikipedia is a bunch of falsehoods because they heard someone say so one time. You could always consult Encyclopedia Britannica, but then you'd also receive information that is less accurate.

    http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/08/02/seven-years-after-nature-pilot-study-compares-wikipedia-favorably-to-other-encyclopedias-in-three-languages/

    And I'm still laughing at the obvious exaggeration by OP that wikipedia has led her astray too many times.
