eggs n bacon

[Scott]

how come every time there is an obesity story running on the news, you know the ones where they show clips of fat people from the waist down (..is one of them you!!) they also have a close up of some bloke tucking into eggs and bacon?

Is it just a case of those two foods being linked (in the average persons mind) to greasy fry ups with shitty oil and plenty of it or are these foods somehow unhealthy?

It reminds me of an argument I read on muscletalk years ago when a couple of guys had a go at someone coz he ate fried eggs, they slagged him off and said he should make an omlette out of the eggs instead! they didnt seem to grasp that the eggs would still be cooked the same way.
I eat more eggs than Im suppose to according to mainstream views and I also eat the healthy living bacon (no tail of fat on it and lower salt). so am I just a big fat heart attack waiting to happen

I think its as you said, people just associate egg and bacon with a big greasy 'fry up'

Try buying the Omega enriched eggs. They feed the birds on see like they are supposed to eat rather than corn (flax seed i think) so they end up being pretty dam healty. a for bacon......the bad fats are one thing thats not too good but i think its the type of meat it is too, processed.

I'm starting to think more and more along the lines of the less we mess with meat the healthier it is. Kill it, cook it eat it.

Saying that, will I stop eating bacon? no fucking way!!!! just dont eat it every day!

They can`t show the real foods that cause the problem becuase that would be advertising the chocolates & drinks etc and the companies would sue

I did notice that switching from the cheap eggs to free range that the yolks are so much more yellow. Havent tried the omega ones yet.
Shit that you pay double for free range eggs compared to the value ones, that gets right on my tits being the tight arse I am.

so there maybe a case with the bacon then, due to it being processed?

yeah, I have read articles in MD and in the paper about BACON GIVES YOU CANCER - basically any processed meat isn't meant to be particularly good for you, same with 'smoked' foods. I think, like always it comes down to 'everything in moderation' aaaah old nan is a wise old girl

IMO bacon a couple of times per week is not going to do much harm, especially if your taking your fish oils, evening primrose oils, and eating fish, fruit veg etc. it's all about balance.

oh and its strange, other people have said to me how the free range eggs were lighter....i always thought they were darker orange!

Free range darker I've found. The old woman that used to live across from me sold her eggs, or rather her chickens eggs. they just used to potter about in an enclosure with pleanty of grass. The chickens not the eggs. Very tasty indeed, not these anaemic (sp) ones you sometimes buy. I bought her old chicken sheds when she moved and converted one into The Dog House. I sometimes call upon the Power Of The Chicken.
Cookies right. The shit they sell as a breakfast in a box should be made illegal. Bring back raw cattle blood and oats.

[Scott]

kellogs should be disbanded and shot for starters. Fuckin evil bastard of a company. Lying, evil, tossers. the rest of the breakfast cereal brigade are about as bad.
their products are full of shit and their advertising is full of shit.

oh and kelly holmes as well...... sell out. I used to like her until I saw her whoring herself for kellogs 'implying' (but not saying) that by not giving their breakfast candy to your kids was going to fuck up their lives
the worst part is that she knows thats a load of shite.
