When we were kids, my dad was an egg fanatic. I was all about the bacon. Now that I'm older, it makes no sense to me that two eggs fill me up more than half a pound of bacon does. And somehow, bacon costs six dollars while eggs are only two.

Ehhh animal fat isn't the killer they've made us all think it is. Sugar? Incredibly high sodium content? Far too many carbs? And then all the preservatives? These are the kinds of things that clog arteries.

Half right.

You know what clogs arteries?

Taking in more calories than you expend. From any source.

What's interesting though is that the sugar and meat industries have both been spending decades lying about the other being the "real culprit."
