Why are there several threads a day from people worrying about eating fruit and the sugar, when there are several more a day for cake recipes and they usually get 3 pages of "YAY!" responses?

Surely there is no reality in which cake is better for you than fruit. No matter what the cake, or what the fruit.

    i know!!

    Id be very surprised if anyones ever got fat from eating too much fruit and vegetables
  • In regards to weight loss, the source of the calories do not matter. However, fruit will tend to be more dense in micronutrients than cake.


    I believe people freak out because MFP sets a "sugar limit" which should be disregarded unless you are diabetic. The "OMG I ate too much fruit" threads are pretty frequent it seems.
