I love it! I'm thinking of voting for Al this November. I used to love MAD Magazine back when I was a kid. And I agree, I trust cows more than chemists as well.

Rep Power: 1 | The issue with re-freezing meat is not that bacteria can grow while it's frozen (it can't), but the thawing and refreezing makes the meat break down easier once it is re-thawed, making it a good breading ground for staph. So, if you don't maintain really good cooking and holding temperature discipline, you can have a problem.

Rep Power: 1 | I love the one, "carbohydrates cause you to gain weight". More people tell me that "carbs are fattening" but it really all comes down to calories in the end, there is really no magic diet. In my opinion an eating plan that eliminates or severely limits any category is doomed for failure, you just can't live like that.
