No wonder we are a nation of unhealthy fatties, this is from ‘Scotland on Sunday’ I find it hard to believe that people actually believe whats in this report ONE in ten Scots believe a dollop of tomato ketchup counts towards the government’s five-a-day fruit and vegetable target for a healthier nation. New research into the country’s eating and drinking habits has also found that ten per cent of Scots think wine makes a contribution.
More than half – 56 per cent – count chips, roast potatoes and mash when adding up their daily intake. The survey of about 5,000 consumers, carried out by the Health Food Manufacturers’ Association, has raised serious concerns about the effect the recession is having on people’s diets, with more opting for junk food and ready meals. But it also reveals the public’s continuing levels of confusion – and unwillingness to heed the advice – about the government’s nutritional health target. Two-thirds of Scots – around 3.6 million people – were opting to fill up on TV dinners and takeaways and not eating the recommended five portions of fruit and vegetables a day. Many said they were choosing tomato ketchup to help them hit their five-a-day target. Although tomato ketchup has natural health benefits, it is offset by its artificial salt and sugar content. Carbohydrate-rich potatoes also do not count towards the target as it lacks natural fibre. Fife-based nutritionist and author Carina Norris, said the fact that people believed tomato ketchup, wine and potatoes counted towards the five-a-day fruit and vegetables was “very concerning. It’s good that people know the message that it is five-a-day, but we really need to get the message out about what it is and what a portion is,” she added. Yes Ketchup is one of your Five a day…. wait is this april 1st…? no….. shudder!!!!
Vancouver Canucks @ Minnesota Wild . Over the past few years, I have really got in to the hockey…… …. The Fights help !!! Dont know how credible this is, as I cannae find it on any other news source/website. but this is from The Register. “A group of around 20 Swedish Weight Watchers participants who’d gathered in the programme’s Växjö clinic to “see how much weight they had lost” found out the answer was not enough to prevent the floor from collapsing under their combined bulk. One shaken heavyweight explained to the Smålandsposten newspaper: “We suddenly heard a huge thud; we almost thought it was an earthquake and everything flew up in the air. The floor collapsed in one corner of the room and along the walls.” The Local adds: “Then floor then started to give way in other parts of the room. Shortly thereafter, the smell of sewage began to waft up into the room.” Weight Watchers consultant Therese Levin unsurprisingly concluded: “We’re going to have to find replacement premises.” ®” Hmmmm, I dunno not sure this really happend. what do you think? Still snowing, over two weeks now, this is a pretty gnarly satellite photo of the UK, covered entirely of snow.
