"You can't have cake for breakfast. You can have fried cake with syrup!" -Bob Saget

ManateeGag: SilentStrider: WHERE DID THEY GET CHOCOLATE CAKE?!?!?!

Then, the children who were singing praises to me, LIED ON ME!

And my wife sent me to my room ... which is where I wanted to be in the first place ...

FTFY :)

Dad is great! He gave us chocolate cake!

What? You mean eating a carb filled sweet is better when your blood sugar is low rather than when it's high like right after dinner?!? Color me shocked.

"eating refined flour and sugar on a regular basis is one of the worse things you can do for your health," Tallmadge said.

I agree. Better to just eat the chocolate straight.
Aand get Ms. Rettner an editor.

Ummm, noooo.... I'm pretty sure it was Bob Saget. I heard him do it when he was on the Red Neck Comedy Tour. I love his comedy. Too bad he died of that heroin overdose a few years ago.

Finally. Science comes around to my point of view.

You're serious, aren't you?

I asked for the vegetarian

With grapefruit juice

It has eggs and milk, it is good for you. I still use this live.

Dad is great... (pops)

Thank you. It's been years since I thought of that meme. STILL good for a laugh.

There's probably LESS sugar in it than a bowl of cereal, anyways.

I would not be at all surprised if this were not literally the case.

Especially if it's bacon chocolate cake (new window)

ManateeGag: THAT'S NUTRITION!

DAMMIT MANATEE! And the Boobies, too. Nobody (but me) is supposed to be old enough on the interwebs to get this reference!!!!

(just glad I read the thread before I posted)

This works when looking at carrot cake; because if carrots are good for you, carrot cake must also be good for you.

I love you.

loved that bit.
"and my children who had been singing praises to me...lieeeed on meeee, saying nuh-uh, we asked for eggs and he made us eat this!"

Sounds like what fat biatches eat.

There is NO Farking 'A' in biatch-E-S!!

Would have been nice if they gave the macronutrient breakdown of each of the breakfasts.

FTA:

In the study, obese participants who ate a breakfast high in protein and carbohydrates that included a dessert were better able to stick to their diet and keep the pounds off longer than participants who ate a low-carb, low-calorie breakfast that did not include sweets.

So, the first breakfast was higher in calories overall, which were made up of protein, unnamed carbohydrates (starch?), and a dessert which would have been more starch and sugar.

The second breakfast is low-carb, meaning it could have been vegetables, fats, or proteins. But later in the article they imply the first one had more protein than the second, which leaves you wondering if the second group ate pure fat. It seems kind of hard to eat low-carb without accidentally getting some protein.

Another thing to consider is what the health outcomes of each of these groups was in spite of weight loss or gain. I have been on a lowish carb vegetarian diet and lowered myself out of the very high pre-diabetic range (A1C 6.4) into a normal area (A1C 5.4) and have actually gained a little weight in the process. My cholesterol and liver levels all moved into the normal range, as well.

I had leftover chocolate cake for breakfast this morning, so I'm getting a kick out of these replies.

/yes, it was delicious and moist

"I had never before seen a conniption. I do not want to see it ever again."

Oznog: There's probably LESS sugar in it than a bowl of cereal, anyways.

I would not be at all surprised if this were not literally the case.

I did some math (ouch). A batch of peanut butter cookies (48 cookies) has 1 cup of sugar (48 tsp). So one tsp of sugar per cookie. A small glass of OJ is four tsp.

I knew those crazy french were on to something with their pain au chocolate and nutella on baguettes

"I would never, in a million years, recommend cookies or cake for breakfast," said Katherine Tallmadge, a registered dietitian and author of "Diet Simple" (LifeLine Press, 2011), who was not involved in the study.

She's just pouting because she wasn't included.

/Actually, that's the only intelligent comment in this article.

Chocolate Cake..It's perfect for those times when you can't intellectualize where the cooking apparel is..

/wherever it is..It's DOWN STAIRS..

This is why I don't go to news articles to get any information about nutrition at all, and I'm perennially confused by the regular fark flipfloping food greens. They're always hard selling either hope or fear, when all I want is simple understanding.

Also, 3/4 cup of any packaged granola is 10-20g sugar, or 1.5-3 tsp, out of 34-44g total carbs. (Of which surprisingly little is fiber.)

Three cookies loaded with peanut butter would probably have a much higher nutritional value than most cereals, which have a pathetic amount of protein.

That reminds me... I finally saw that routine on HBO, after growing up hearing it on vinyl. The expressions added so much to it. =D

fire shot from her eye sockets ... and began to burn my stomach ...

What is this leftover chocolate cake you speak of?
