Dinner last night.

[Melchizedek = Michael]

I am down to twice a year at most...between the oil for the skillet and all of the sour cream I use I have enough fat to dampen the sugar spike.

Doesn't work like that! The only way to dampen the sugar spike is don't eat the sugar/starch!

Wrong. The several decades of pushing diabetics to go low fat was always complete BS...as all the efforts to get people to cut fats, which has a lot to do with the current diabetes outbreak.

I didn't say a thing of low fat! When you cut carbs you have to up fats for the energy you lose by cutting carbs!

When you eat a lot of carbs make sure to intake fat. The experts will not tell you that, they tell us to always eat as little fat as possible. They know better, they lie to us.

You eat a lot of carbs,you're going to get a huge insulin response! Not good.

You are either an idiot or a liar....I have no way to know what is the failure.

It's not rocket science, the more carbs you eat,the higher you spike your blood sugar.

There's nothing wrong with pasta, bread or potatoes as long as they're eaten in moderation and you're willing to go for a walk. The Mediterranean and Japanese diets are packed with carbs.

Given the number of people who have diabetes the general ignorance is not OK.....but then again the reason we got here is almost certainly largely due to 50 years of the elites pushing high carb low fat diets. That food became so cheap and plentiful has helped, but that is going away.

High-fructose corn syrup and processed sugar is in all of our food. That's a lot worse for us than a small plate of pasta or a bowl of rice. I will never give up pasta and bread. They're the 2 things I'm really good at making myself.

I dont think we know that HFCS is evil, but it might be....this big thing is that they pushed high carb low fat when they should have pushed limiting added sugar, especially when not taken with fats. I am also very sceptical of the pushing fruit, which is often natures candy, and should be taken in moderation.

First Course: Leftover really good Ezell's roll split and then smeared with a really good crock cheese.

Stuffed with cold one day aged Ezell's deep fried chicken liver.











It is good.

Tagliatelle is my favorite homemade pasta because I like how wide and rustic it is. I haven't made it in a while but it can be topped with anything. Pancetta, Shiitake, dandelion greens, just to name a few. I treat it like spaghetti by using a light sauce.

My problem as an American is I'll eat an entire plate of it.

WoW....You have been nice to me for several posts in a row. I shot you a like to encourage more of this.

Second Course: Two day aged potato salad with bacon, eggs and a deluxe lightly ground mustard. I have taken to using a light touch on the mayo, as Paula Deen advises.
