    I happen to love black licorice. However, let me give you my "big five":
    a. Organ meats
    b. Milk chocolate
    c. "the whites": Bread, rice, potatoes
    d. gravy and mayo
    e. Anything manufactured by Frito Lay

    Great.. there goes my gravy & mayo covered chocolate bars.

    How can black licorice lead to belly fat? As far as i know, no one has ever eaten it. They just buy it and leave it sitting around like some kind of edgy, hipster badge.***


    ***None of this is true. Black licorice is AMAZING, and I was eating it way before it was cool to eat!

    I'm sorry, I'm just not sure we can be friends any more. :sick:

    I like pretty much all those things except asparagus. Im on the fence about quinoa.... i like it in some things but most people do the wrong things with it in my opinion.



    black licorice are pretty much the only jelly beans or gum drops that have any decent flavor. but thats a whole other can of worms i guess.

    What about the guy at work on Atkins eating...gasp...I shudder to say it: Pork Rinds dipped in Hellman's Real Mayonnaise. This has to make the list.

    Commence dry heaves...

    What if Mike and I share the black licorice and you can have all the red licorice?

    I am confused as to why so many people believe rice and potatoes lead to belly fat. If rice and potatoes are making you fat it's the oil you fry it in or the butter you put on it.

    This might be acceptable as long as it's only the Australian style strawberry licorice, that doesn't actually taste anything like licorice whatsoever.

    Good God, I'll agree with organ meats but everything else are regular staples on my list! I only wish I could get away with eating Fritos every day of my life as well.

    Licorice is just disgusting in any flavor. As are Swedish Fish and anything else that is really rubber passed off as tasteless candy. Ble-urgh!:noway:

    I hate how Cauliflower gets such a bad rap. It's so good for tightening up your skin as you lose. Everyone hates it, and it stinks when you cook it, sure, but there's a reason some people lose 100 lb and look great, and others need surgery for the excess skin. I'll keep my daily cauliflower, thanks.

    However, let me give you my "big five":
    a. Hot Dogs
    b. Licorice of course
    c. Brussel Sprouts
    d. Head Cheese
    e. Bologna

    Black licorice can go. I won't fight that hard on the rest of them, but I will participate in the quinoa pasta black market. But asparagus has to stay. It's fabulous prepared correctly.

    I support your ban of licorice, you're on your own for the rest.

    8 ½ out of 10 scientists agree with outlawing all 5. tongue0015.gif

    Whoa - back the train up a minute. Is the female scientist the 1/2 person in your statement?

    I do not believe it is due to gender, but the fact she does not have gloves. True story. Upside, she does not have to perform probes like the Doc in Fletch--->some consolation.
