    I think we need a bit more context - what was the article about and why did they say to avoid them?

    Sounds like all kinds of stupid to me.

    Add that article to your ignore list.

    in the immortal words of my husband ..." THEY CAN SUCK IT! "

    the net-net BOTTOM LINE: C A L O R I E S. Period. Stay within your calorie range, exercise and eat what you want that is as healthy as possible. If you're eating equal calories of a freakin' MANGO instead of SOUR PATCH KIDS or PEANUT M&Ms, then consider yourself doing GREAT! :) Natural raw fruits and veggies are WAY ahead of most people's ballgames! :)

    Yeah, whatever the article is talking about they are just recommending some fruits and veggies over others. They're not saying it's unhealthy to eat them, but it's just slightly better to eat the others.

    Even more reason to add it to the ignore list, then!
