As a Doctor* I think I am qualified to offer dietary advice. It is generally accepted that fruit is healthy. It follows that food is healthier if you add fruit. If you are concerned about eating a bowl with scoops of ice cream then just top it off with a piece of fruit – voila instant healthy food.
I was also once assured by a biology teacher that we have a second stomach for dessert; no matter who much we ate for the main course, there is always room for the sweet course.
Likewise oatmeal is good for you, so the combination of fruit and oatmeal known as oatmeal raisin cookies are extra healthy.
You can also rest assured that Candy Floss (Cotton Candy) is on the list of healthy alternatives, at least if you go to a US carnival. This article in Newsweek lists unhealthy fairground foods and at 200 calories, Candy Floss seems positively benign compared to the deep fried cookies and chocolate.
* Actually a Doctor Who Fan, but the last couple of words seemed like unnecessary detail to add in the main post.
Just keep telling yourself that. I suppose my stuffed french toast is healthy too cause it has marmalade in it (oranges) right? Or if I put blueberries or strawberries on top?
Hmmm I think Ill have to check the food pyramid again for the reality of this Dr.’s plan.
All I say is phew, finally someone tells it how it is - I have been saying this very thing for years but no one ever believed me!
It is reassuring to know that the strawberry, citron and mango Berthillon ice creams I repeatedly ate in Paris is a form of health food. Thanks, Doctor (Who Fan).
