Ok so in defense of dumbasses, we don’t always understand the question. Eg, whose left? In those cases we don’t want to make your clarify the question and drag things out, so we give you what we hope is an unequivocally clear response. It comes from a deep-seeded fear of miscommunication resulting in too many mailboxes with their flags on the wrong side or whatever. We apologize for the pedantry, though. I get that it’s annoying.
Lol. That one makes me strip a gear.
I switched from from beer to flavored carbonated water. This was 18 years ago though and the options were pretty limited back then. Mostly it was just artificially sweetened garbage. I’d rather just have a club soda and add my own fruit or juice to taste. But these days it’s just easier to buy Polar or whatever.
This research didn’t seem to investigate trans fats, but rather the effect of unprocessed food that’s high in fiber vs processed food that’s low in fiber.
The last book I read that discussed fats is a bit out of date (The Story of the Human Body: Evolution, Health, and Disease by Daniel Lieberman), but it has an interesting explanation of the differences between saturated, unsaturated, and trans fats. Then the author reveals the plot twist that well… maybe the different fats don’t actually make that much difference once they’re in the body and that current research is still unclear.
I know it’s for advertising but there’s a paranoid little corner of my mind that imagines insurance companies paying for some of these, uh, “user insights.”
I’ve only heard that second one in Swedish. I don’t know if it’s originates from Sweden, but it rhymes.
Thanks for the link. That was a really good read. Even better on Doctorow’s own site, I think, because of all the extra links he provides.
One key to happiness for me is to start from the assumption that I’ve been unclear.
