    Me too! But to answer the question- beer's "fattening" because it's high in calories and simple carbs. Calories (especially from alcohol) and simple carbs are coverted by the body to sugars upon ingestion. If your body can't use them immediately it stores them. Those stores in excess = fat.

    I'm not saying give up your boozing (I certainly haven't) but make room for it in your daily allowance. :drinker:

    **notice**

    There are varieties of meat - polar bear. For instance, raw (Alaska Native) meat -polar bear - contains 130 calories per 100g (36 cals per oz). This makes it about average for foodstuff.

    I've actually always wanted to try bear. Not like I'm ever going to go to a place where they can exact their revenge, besides a zoo.

    But whatever alcohol you drink has to be burned before going back to burning calories, be it fat or whatever is in your gut. Beware, but enjoy. Cheers.

    Damn, I clicked to see who was eating bear!!! Oh well :-) Info on beer:

    It's been estimated that a man drinking five pints of beer a week consumes the same number of calories as someone getting through 221 doughnuts a year (UK Dept of Health).

    With seven calories per gram, alcohol has almost the same calorie content as pure fat! Yet alcohol has no nutritional value, and despite its calorific content, may actually make you feel more hungry instead of less, as it lowers your blood sugar.
    Spirits, wine and light beer and light cider have less calories than regular beer and cider. A single vodka and coke, rum and coke or gin and tonic is 120 calories, while a shot (25ml) of whisky is around 55 calories. A medium-sized glass of wine (175ml) contains about 125 calories, although a bottle would be over 500 calories.(Drink Aware Website, UK)

    I hope this helps :-)

    I would say that it is both beer and bear; however all I really know about is the bear. I had it once a long time ago and it was greasy and stringy. I assume it was from an older bear. I have since found out that if you want to eat bear meat, get a young one because the meat on older bears can get wormy. Now there's a thought that will help keep your weight down... :sick:

    I learned this tidbit of info while in AK recently.

    I would stick to a 64 cal beer, or learn to like vodka and diet coke ( which really isn't that bad!) and if someone ever tried bear let me know!LOL!
