Which type of food is worst for you?

Hint: only one of these options is THE problem with the global diet at the moment, and Horizon has just knocked one out of the park in my opinion.

All in moderation.
Also, pie.

Not working.

As I don't really like Coke and I can't eat cheesecake, it has to be butter.

I watched Horizon too. Agree with Leeds, it was a compelling argument.

It was indeed a compelling argument and I was pleased to see them pointing out that the sample size of their experiment was too small to draw firm conclusions from.
Makes a nice change for this sort of program to point out such things.

Watched it last night - so had a full fry up and no sugar in my tea this morning - so not mixing fat and sugars ;)

Every now and then I would have a fry up but it was one of those blue moon occasions. If we did things in moderation it was all okay. I am trying to get it back to that state.
