"And tell me, sir, why are YOUR sources unbiased?
Truth is they aren't.
These sources support the "eat pop tarts and ice cream" crowd if anyone was wondering. There are many, many other valid viewpoints on nitrition, presented by people who aren't obnoxious like Aragon. "

Divisive Topics Are Better Suited For Groups, Not the Main Forums
Divisive topics, particularly those that seek input from or are relevant only to a select group of users, are better placed within an appropriate Group rather than the Main Forums. For example, topics relevant to only one religion should not be placed on the main forums but rather within a group related to that religion. We reserve the right to move any topic to a relevant public Group which interested members may join if they wish to continue to participate.

"Most of the members of MFP are adults, so why does it seem like this site is full of 12 year olds? I forgot this wasn't Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter. . .and it seems that so have most of you.. Making fun of each other and being mean is some of the problems we see with most social media sites. Why do we have to bring it to MyFitnessPal? This site is for health and wellness. To make fun and hurt others on here is disgusting. I am very disappointed in those who have been participating in these things on here. you think it's bad when kids bully each other? It's happening here. from adults. Don't act like children. Re analyze your behavior and act like an adult rather than a prepubescent teens. I wouldn't worry about your kids participating in things like this, rather if you find yourself doing this what kind of example are you? Kids know better, why don't you? "
