    I'm torn and don't know what to think, I read that pizza is bad because it has flour, cheese and meat on it but then I see that the US congress deems it a vegetable source for children in schools!?

    As a daycare provider this drives me up a wall!!!! Pop tarts are also considered a fruit serving!!!!

    For the record, my reply to this thread was sarcasm, I actually thought the OP was joking...

    If the OP wasn't being sarcastic, then an alien has now possessed him, and everyone should reset their passwords. :angry:

    Everything is bad for you. Even water makes it hard for you to drop weight (or so I've read on these forums.)

    Twinkies, Ho Hos and ding dongs- but if we have a zombie apocalypse and these are the last things I am totally eating them :laugh:

    But Ho Hos and Ding Dongs aren't bad. The chocolate outter coating (unlike Twinkies) keeps the bad stuff from getting in. Right? :wink:

    Yeah like all the fat toxins that float around in the air while you are cooking it and are then absorbed by other foods.... such as twinkies... :wink:

    Yup! Oh and ranch dressing is a dairy serving. And ketchup if given in a 1/4 cup serving can be considered a vegetable.

    I was being sarcastic in the OP, but there's seriously a lot of foods that I would not even know there were negative stigmas to (other than specific individuals having allergies to specific foods) without boards like these. Especially in their "whole food" forms.

    Hey definitely! Bluebery PopTarts = not-so-fresh fruit

    I still say tomato is a veggie though, so marinara is totally veggie, not fruit


    Pizza is all food groups, unless you are too picky about toppings! :grumble:

    I hope you wear sunscreen and that air isn't polluted.

    Seriously, I drink 16-17 8 oz. glasses of water a day, it helps keep things flowing.

    the worldwidewebs have convinced me that all food is "bad" but that i can still eat some "healthy" things like cauliflower, lettuce, water, and celery. i dont bother with anything else at this point.

    Don't forget about water toxicity, and it is possible to drink too much water and throw off your sodium/potassium balance.

    Stop eating,drinking, and go curl up in a hole in the ground!
