    I am SO CONFUSED!

    Dairy kills us all, especially Mayo, because that's the whitest of dairy products and should be avoided along with Avocados which contain no fat and are thusly sabotaging us and leading to cankles.

    Dude, now _I'M_ confused. Mayo is a dairy product??? I thought it was made out of eggs and oil. But if there is an animal that shoots Hellmann's out of its teats, PLEASE identify it for me so that I can adopt one and let it live in my shed with the lawn mower. I love me some mayo!

    Yeah, I was going to question that but I couldn't find the original quote and didn't want to riff off an out-of-context statement.

    Eggs are considered a dairy product.

    No. :angry:



    Sorry Jules.

    but but but but.... chickens come from farms and farms have cows and cows give milk so that must mean that everything on the farm is then considered a milk by-product, thus classifying it as dairy, right?

    right?.... bueller?....... bueller?

    The Bodybuilding.com article is especially interesting.

    I woudl jsut like to thank you all from the bottom of my dairy and fruit filled heart. This has made my day.


    Also I wonder if I worship a the giant cow in the sky (my current reigious belief of "cheesism and ice creamism but not togetherism") then does anythign have calories? I'm pretty sure it means my body is made up of little rainbows and the lucky charms marshmallows. just saying.

    only the rainbows coming out your butt have calories. that's how they propel you through the day, protecting you from falling into great vats of mayo and shielding you from dairy that will leap into your mouth and kill you with one mighty stroke of the string cheese if you're not careful!

    Don't EVER question me likiti!! Everything I say is true...


    (And the "Mayo is a dairy" was an old thread, but golden. And the OP truly believed it... b/c it was white. Reminds me of the post along the lines of "You pee out the fat. That's the stuff you see floating in the toilet. That's how you lose fat.")

    Internet Gold is what this is.

    Clearly dairy is deadly, or can at least put your eye out:

    thats also why i dont eat shop bought bread; the grains of wheat are milled very very fine so they are quickly broken down, i find that bread does not fill me up as an hour later i would just get hungry , and i only eat wholemeal

    also fruit whole has more fibre than drinks and the pasteurisation of smoothies in shops leads to a decrease in mintonutrients so it is less nutritious

    Some of you people have a strange fixation with rainbows...

    ...and butts...

    ...and even more disturbingly the combination of the two.

    I tried finding the "Mayo is Dairy b/c it's White" a couple times now, but I think somewhere along the lines it was deleted by the Mods b/c it got vicious.

    haha really? this study is BS...the sugars that you get from blending or juicing are NOT the same and do not have the same effect on your body as processed sugar in cookies, sweets etc. ive been juicing and blending for 5 years...Ive lost 100 lbs, Im more fit and active than I have ever been and my blood tests are excellent....

    :huh:

    I'm juxt wondering what company pays you to say this stuff.

    I wish a company DID pay me for this...

    Fruit doesnt have any sugar in it...sugar is something that can only exist if you refine something...a banana doesnt have sugar it has a holistic nature to it...if you refine the banana you can get sugar from it...but when its a BANANA it doesnt behave like refined sugar because its a banana...they are totally unrelated...

    the food industry has trained people to think about 1 nutrient in an item...cant have fruit its got too much sugar...cant have avacado its got too much fat...really? God put these fruits and vegetables on the planet to eat and give us a healthy life...so eat them and be healthy!

    bump I missed the food industry training course. Dat gum it!

    To be honest, the eggs are really dairy is a MFP joke based on another thread.

    My question about eggs is this :: If your remember the jingle, "Brown eggs are local eggs and local eggs are fresh" ...then what are the white eggs that my backyard flock lays? They must be the dairy eggs because they're white like milk.

    The pastel colored eggs from the Ameraucanas - well, those must be from aliens.

    its very healthy...just knock out the dairy...and use coconut milk or almond milk instead of milk/yogurt....my son also loves smoothies...now if i could only get him to drink a green smoothie!

    Blueberries = the cure for green smoothie aversion!! My 7-yr-old will drink a smoothie that has a bunch of spinach in it (along with some kind of fruit, like bananas/strawberries, etc) - but the color sometimes turns him off.

    If I through in some blueberries, it makes the color more appetizing. Although, the other day, he was out with a family friend who bought him some juice. He chose the Odwalla Super Food juice that is VERY green. And he loved it. So... maybe he's gotten over the color issue at this point.

    We should stop peeling and shelling food items then! If god wanted us to eat peeled oranges/bananas/watermelon/nuts/etc he would have grown them already peeled and shelled. Even better! Cows would grow up cooked!
