Just saw a Bob Evans commercial for a dinner of chicken and noodles, on top
of mashed potatoes, on top of a biscuit!

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Well, I don't think I would have liked it even when I didn't limit carbs. I
always thought meals shoujld have one of those, potatoes or noodles or
biscuits. Now it seems like a pile of rat poison.

It is a meal clearly built on the old food pyramid structure. :-)

A foundation of bread, then starch in potatoes, then PASTA in the
noodles, and a little of that evil meat on the top.

I don't know when they started this food pyramid thing, but in the 60's and
70's a "balanced meal" had one starch (potatos or ONE slice of bread), one
or two veggies and some meat. Meals always started with a salad. I assume
people loaded up on the meat for "seconds" rather than the starches, and if
they wanted to lose weight, they'd cut down on the starch and the meat.
That's why more people were thin back then. IMO, anyway.
