Couple of years back, a friend started raving about a book he'd read that linked blood PH to everything from obesity to cancer, and recommended a low-acid diet to compensate. Since then, i've heard cancer (all cancer) blamed on everything from mold to wheat gluten. I'm becoming very suspicious that this is all just a huge conspiracy by the soy industry... :suss:

It's my wifes turn at Taekwondo tonight so it is something simple. B.L.Ts yum bacon. My wife is the real cook in the house since both her and our youngest son can not have any wheat.
Ohh did I just say that?
If you ever listen to Bob and Tom, the comedian Jim Gaffigan (he has a Comedy Central special called 'Beyond the Pale') has a bit talking about going to a breakfast buffet, opening up one of the metal bins and finding loads of bacon. Then he talks about how one wants to consume all the bacon there, but politely takes only about 3 pieces. I don't eat pork products but when my husband and I first went to a breakfast buffet with endless bacon, I thought my husband was going to cry.

Sex: Wife in third :sigh: tri-mester-Oh wait I was confused:~ Yes Male. Food: What I wanted was a Chicken Fried Steak with gravy, fries, and fried okra Sleep: Shooting for 10:30pm Boy, I sure was wanting a chicken fried but it just didn't happen tonight. There just an't nothing like covered in some good gravy (white not that fake brown stuff) and splattered with Tabasco.:-D And top it off with some good cold sweet ice tea. God, I love Texas.
God Bless, Jason

My sister in law, the 'vegetarian' for about 10 years snuck a couple of fried chicken legs according to my mother in law. Oh, how I want to tease her. Southern fried chicken is the best though. I am not a fan of okra but I love collard greens.

When I was in undergraduate school I saw a presentation of grad students and the research they were doing about the isoflavins in soy and how they helped prevent some cancers. I was convinced.

I've heard about some of the other effects of isoflavins... not too sure i want to up my intake much. I'm pretty comfortable with my current bra size, if you know what i mean... :rolleyes:

Umm..I haven't heard about any link between isoflavins and bra size but that would explain A LOT in my case.....

The way i heard it, isolavins are seen as something close to estrogen by the body, a fact that has sparked all sorts of fun newspaper articles speculating on how the prevalence of soy products is turning the US into a nation of girly-men... ...hilarious as that thought is, it's just the sort of poorly-researched, sensationalism that makes me skeptical of most health reporting in mainstream media. Besides, i have plenty of other reasons and opportunities to avoid soy proteins***** (though i do love the occasional bowl of miso soup). *soy lecithin on the other hand is pretty hard to avoid. Check your cupboard - it's in all sorts of things. A friend of my folks is allergic to the stuff, and pretty much has to avoid all prepared food because of it.

;) Setting here reading this set of questions and reply's, and got to remembering something I heard awhile back. It goes something like this: "When the person is laying in a hospital bed dieing, one who has eaten and drank all the healthy foods and the healthy drinks and done all of the healthy exercises. What are they going to complain about that sent them to the hospital to die of?" That is not a direct quote mind you. I don't remember the exact wording on it. By the way if you are wondering, yes I'm watching my dietary intake and I still eat meat of somesort most days. (Never could stand that tofu.) ;P :cool: :rose: As for the sex - haven't had it in 17 years. :omg:

Sex: Male Food: Spaghetti Pie (OMG! Heaven on a plate!) Sleep: Tonight by 9:00 I bet you were all wondering about my comments regarding sex and I'm really only wanting to talk about spaghetti pie and to quote something shog might say... "I reached up, picked some cheese off my chin. Adjusted the Oakley sunglasses on my head and smiled pleasantly while I watch my children play on the green hillside. That's some fine spaghetti pie!" I'm exhausted from a marathon on the elliptical, I'm male and I'm going to sleep very well tonight.:cool: Are your emotions regarding dinner anything that could possibly compare with mine? If so, share what you had. If we get enough interest then we can post the source code for our dinners of interest. I already checked mine into SVN just to keep it safe but after eating as much as I ate I feel like a real Tortoise. -ba-dump-bump- :rolleyes: I'm trying really hard to get Chris to award me the MVE (most valuable eater) so give me lots of 5.0's. If you give me ones may you get the runs!:laugh:

I don't get nearly enough of any of them.:-D Ahem... Male. Bacon (crispy, not flaccid). About 5 hours a night, with a 30 minute power nap after work.

Southern fried chicken
Just to make sure you know: Chicken Fried Steak is not chicken. It is like a ground beef steak battered and deep fired like a chicken. One should try it even if one is a veg-head(:laugh: just playing). The gravy is a big part to the taste of the dish.

You spending time in Longhorn country should know that answer.

Can you recommend a good substitute?
Uh. That's ironic. I would suggest meat. Fancy that. Suggesting meat as a substitute for tofu. How ironic. It's usually the other way around, you know. Actually, I wouldn't suggest meat either. That book, The China Study, that Roger and I are reading (not like together, I mean, we don't even live near each other and we're not that kind of folk, if you know what I mean), anyways, animal protein. Shiver. That book has totally changed my eating habits. Marc

Are you insinuating that there is a cause affect between preventable diseases and personal wealth? (no wonder I’m so health :) ) Couldn’t happen to have anything to do with personal habits? I say that knowing full well that no one is to be held accountable for their personal decisions any more. :|

No need to insinuate. There's studies showing the relationship, well, not necessarily to personal wealth but at least cultural wealth.

Well, of course personal habits are capable (at least in theory) of bucking any trend. But psychohistory, The Foundation, and statistics don't work by lloking at personal habits. :) Marc
