As kids, our parents made us drink carrot juice (which I personally liked a lot!). We turned very orange from that. Our grandma is a doctor and her opinion was that it was completely okay to be orange from carrots. It dos however look funny. But don't drink or smoke with that!

Negative calorie foods are a reality. True, I don't think an apple could be negative calorie either, but is it so unbelievable that some foods take more energy to burn than they provide? Yes. Ones that don't provide energy aren't called "food". Someone else noted that the FIRST bite might be "negative calorie", and there's something to that concept: eat frequently and you raise your metabolism due to the ongoing digestion. There's an element of truth in there. But it doesn't extend out to mean "eat as much as you want and lose weight." If I ate my cotton shirt right now, do you think my body would digest it using fewer calories than it gets from the shirt itself? I have no idea. But like your questions about "negative calories", that question has no place in a serious discussion of how to lose fat and keep it off. Here's a homework assignment for you. Look up glycemic index and insulin resistance. See if those won't be more helpful to you than "negative calories" were. Oh, and while you're at it, look up the Cabbage Soup Diet. I think that was premised on the "negative calorie" theory! Wendy |

I hate to admit this, but I like scrapple...sliced thin, fried and served
with ketchup with eggs for breakfast. Haven't had it in years...my mother's family is from Pennsylvania Dutch country and we always used to have it at my grandmother's along with shoo fly pie which is truly wonderful. However, the same culture that invented these two wonders also loves something which does have my vote for the worst food ever...souse. I don't even know if I spelled it right...but it is some kind of clear gelatin into which is molded all sorts of gross organ meats, red somethings (peppers or pimentos) and I think onion and cabbage. It just makes me ill thinking of it. I used to get so grossed out as a kid watching the adults chow down on it. I don't even know if it is high fat/low calorie or what...it is just gross.
