Isn't that the limit? It was so disgusting, I couldn't read the entire article. Now, people get "addicted to the fats in food?" Ridiculous! In fact, it isn't fats that make one put on weight. It's sugar. Fats are actually good for the body. The brain is mostly fat. Deprive the brain of fats & the brain cannot function properly.

Sugar & carbs are the body's worst enemies.

Just wait, it only gets worse.

Here is the applicable part of the DW TRIAL THREAD GLOSSARY...

COKEYS=What happens to your keyboard when you read a humorous reply on FR and SPEW your favorite sugar-laced beverage on your keyboard. First, your fingers stick to the keys, then later, you end up with multiple replies and repeating characters due to the keys sticking. Later you end up buying a new keyboard.

DESPERADO SNACK= (AKA Party-Mix) What you do for food after being addicted to the net and FR for so long that you eat and sleep at the PC. Finally you get so addicted you won’t even get up to go get FOOD, so, you turn the keyboard upside down and shake it out over a piece of paper. You then funnel the crumbs into your mouth.

SWEET-TREAT= What you get if you just SPEWED on your keyboard and now you are thirsty and hungry. You quickly make a funnel out of paper and turning the keyboard upside down, funnel the Mixture of PARTY-MIX and COKEYS into a cup, then DRINK IT.
