I didn't get any either! I don't eat any of those foods (except for bacon), so I have no idea!

I don't agree that saturated fat is "the truly unhealthy kind." It needs to be limited, but it's important for hormones and possibly skin-cancer fighting. It also doesn't seem to be as related to heart health as scientists once thought.

Staying away from sugar and candy is easy for me. But bacon? Ooooh. Not so easy. Bring on the bacon!

3/5

ahhh, i really love that quaker granola though. And it's the cheapest price per ounce at the store. I should probably start mixing it with a lighter cereal.
