My daughter is skinny as a rail and doesn't exercise and she eats these things too. Actually we eat alot more stuff like this now than we used to, and we're much healthier. Back then I weighed 42
pounds more. So based on these experiences, I just can't agree with alot of the carbophobic ideas floating around.
It just seems as if the heaviest and most unsuccessful people are obsessed with steering clear of carbs, while the more fit and successful people eat them all the time. Why is that? Some may say that it's genetics and that they can get away with that naturally, but I think that this is the exception and not the rule.
