Maybe Dougie was right and if we switched to 1 Kcal spray we could enjoy the same culinary delights as him

Listen to this drivel. Spuds a "Super Food"

Sian Porter, consultant dietitian and spokesperson for the British Dietetic Association, agrees: "Many people forget to include drinks - including alcohol - when they are watching what they eat. It's easy for these calories to add up as they are being consumed as a liquid."

Sian Porter, the Potato Council's consultant dietitian, told the Daily Express: 'It is important to have a wide variety of foods in your diet but sometimes our heads are turned by new things and we underestimate old favourites like potatoes and how they compare to other, often more expensive "superfoods".'

Here is Sian promoting margarine while in the employ of the Fat Panel, a shill outfit for the margarine industry.

"Dietician Sian Porter from The Fat Panel shows you how to follow your favourite chefs meal the healthy way."

I reckon the retailers are panicking about their 'Frankenfat' sales too...I can pretty much win a bet with myself each week in my Tesco's that out of a whole aisle of the chilled dairy food-There'll be a 'Maintenance/repair' sticker on the middle section where all the real butter,lard and beef dripping is kept and hence,removed,It's ALWAYS that section and never the one next to it where all the low fat spread shite is stored and it's been happening for a couple of months now and at least once a week...I DO smell a rat.

As you guys know, when a human being or animal eats too much they do not waste the food, it does not pass through them. They store the excess food as body fat err... saturated fat. This is how we are supposed to work. In fact if this does not work, you are in trouble health wise big time. And yet we are told sat fats will block up our arteries and kill us. Only in a world this crazy could we have ever believed that BS. That being said, I fell for the BS big time for over twenty years. Result type two diabetes and two heart stents.

Hardly a good advert for low fat is she   but still she may dissuade others from going the low fat route which is one positive
