Default Diet doubts over counting calories


Duh. If you go by the logic that all you have to count
is calories, then 70 calories of Doritos are as good for
you as 70 calories of prunes. It doesn't take a brain
surgeon to see the garbage in that notion. I've been
saying this on this newsgroup for a long time now.

Don't just look at the calories, look at the nutritional
content.
Don't just count how many calories you will take in,
think about how you will burn them up.
