That's ridiculous. How much is too much? I put it on most everything and even lick the knife. Been eating butter for over 60 years.But moderation is key. Too much of it is not good.
I put it on most everything
That's ridiculous. How much is too much? I put it on most everything and even lick the knife. Been eating butter for over 60 years.
What's too much? I eat butter every day. I love butter.
I don't understand this moderation thing everybody keep using as an excuse.
Butter is good for you, margarine is not.
I'm obviously , but if you insist on believing that government approved, chemically induced, vitamin and mineral fortified fake food is better for you then real, God given food is, then go for it.You're right!
Butter IS good for you and is better than oleomargerine.
But still, like most everything else, it has to be eaten in moderation. I'm not trying to stop you from doing it. Eat all you want, as much as you want.
Butter DOES have that irresistable unmistakable flavor and taste that's described and unmatched by no other fat, but it is an animal fat, which is usually high in cholesterol.
Here's an exerpt from Cardio Vascular Institute in a literature pamplet in collaboration with the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, given to me by my nutristionist, who, in turn, was suggested that I see by my cardilologist.
It reads as follows;
Fats and oils - How do they affect cholesterol?
Eating a lot ofthe wrong kind of fat raises the choolesterol level. One of the best ways to lower your cholesterol level is to avoid foods that are high in saturated and transfat, and to use unsaturated fats instead. (Examples are listed on page 4.)
Saturated fats, like stick butter, are more solid; unsaturated fats like olive oil or liquid margerine, are more liquid. Saturated and transfat raise your blood cholesterol more than anything else you eat - even more then cholesterol itself!
Unsaturated fats do not raise cholesterol and may even lower cholesteral in the blood. But remember, that unsaturated fats are still high in calories!
Eating a lot of any kind of fat leads to being overweight, and even THAT will raise your colesterol.
From page 4;
Saturated fats raise cholesterol!
These items should be limited in your diet;
meat
butter
high-fat cheese
milk - whole and 2%
condensed or sweetened milk
cream
ice cream
coconut oil
palm oil
Unsaturated fats;
When you need a fatk, choose unsaturated!
Monosaturated fats;
olive oil
peanut oil
avocados
canola oil
peanut butter or other nut butters
nuts (in moderation)
Polyunsaturated fats;
sunflower oil
corn oil
sesame oil
safflower oil
soybean oil
tub or liquid magerine
*Some low-fat options are higher in sodium. Thyese foods SHOULD BE CONSUMED IN MODERATION. Check the labels for sodium content. Follow you doctor's advice about sodium.
So you see, Grindre, I'm not making any of this up.
Even the fats that are low in cholesterol should be used and eaten sparingly. What do you think?
No raw clams for me, but raw oysters I can eat forever.
Now, that's interesting. I don't believe I've ever heard anyone say that before.
Say more, Buzz. Why?

I like walnuts, pecans, peanuts, almonds and cahews, but what is balut?
Not something I would eat unless starving and near death.

AMEN! If the gubmit has their filthy hands in the decision making process anything, you can be assured there will be a high failure rate attributed to junk research by some favored vendor, larger donor/supporter, stinking relative, etc. No bias to political party, just facts based on decades of supporting data for both parties.If you want it screwed up, give it to the gubmit.I'm obviously , but if you insist on believing that government approved, chemically induced, vitamin and mineral fortified fake food is better for you then real, God given food is, then go for it.
You won't catch me eatin' it.
That's all I have to say about it.

Okra is at the top of my "DO NOT EAT" list. Tripe stew, spam on a flat top grill and raw oysters on the half shell top my list of favorite foods. Margarine is a lubricant for machinery, not a food. Flies will not even eat it.
Awe hell no!!!!!! I wouldn't even eat that THEN!!!
There are many other things that you can get your hands on to eat if you were that hungry. NOT THAT!!!
Even those pic look horrible, creepy and horrendous!!! I had to get off that page because those pics of it was beginning to make me throw up!!!
Wow. Those are harsh words for what's considered normal in another culture.
Pure cane sugar is steady coming back as a real sweetener in regular sodas and other sweet products.
High fructose corn syrup is or seems to be on its way out as far as it being used as an ingrient in a host of consumer products. heath awarnness advocates have made it know that this ingredient is not a favorable one, especially in cold cereals for children.
Nutrasweet was suposed to have been more healthy when iyt was first introduced in the early '80s. Now Splenda is supposed to be better, but i think that is just speculation right now.
Nectresse contains other additives besides monk fruit
But monk fruit is not the only ingredient in Nectresse, nor is it even the primary ingredient. The first and most abundant ingredient in Nectresse is actually erythritol, a sugar alcohol commonly derived from corn, the vast majority of which has been genetically modified (GM) in the U.S. And the second ingredient in Nectresse is sugar, which is refined and more than likely comes from GM sugar beets.
The third ingredient in Nectresse is monk fruit, which McNeil explains is extracted using a natural process involving both water and heat rather than chemicals -- this is good. But the fourth and final ingredient in Nectresse is molasses, which once again is a sugar that more than likely was derived from GM sugar beets -- producers that use sugar from sugar cane, after all, typically indicate this on their ingredient labels.
Nectresse, not so natural after all
So three out of the four ingredients used in Nectresse appear to be derived from bioengineered crops, and two of these ingredients are refined sugars. And since erythritol is a sugar alcohol, as well as the most abundant ingredient in Nectresse, McNeil can legally claim under U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines that Nectresse contains zero calories per serving.
