Eggs Now Being Sold As Heart Healthy

WebMD supports frying eggs in oil? Almost raw? Are those salmonella-free yolks? How can you tell? You can’t. You take the risk. WebMD pandering to white people. Eating eggs makes them happy?

ABOUT THAT ICE-CREAM for breakfast diet

Even though I categorize this as the AFC ICE-CREAM DIET and although the ice-cream I ate and continue to eat now and then is animal-free, it is not a diet – at least not for me.

While most people make smoothies, that is they add ice to the blender ingredients, that’s usually too cold for me, so I use mostly cold ingredients and make a shake instead.

Beer Nut And Walnut Ice-Cream

BEER NUT AND WALNUT ICE-CREAM Of course this is a high fat ice-cream, but compared to others it’s more nutrient and fiber dense.
