Not sure I am in the right forum topic so if I am not please let me know.

Anyway, I remember as a kid my mother trying some pretty interesting diets, to name a few:

Peanut Butter and olive oil
boiling orange peels
Apple Cider Vinegar
Lemon Juice concentrate before every meal

LOL the list could go on and on.

What are some silly fad diets that you remember, and look back on now and think "WTH were people thinking?"
