The commie government agency THE FDA, wants to regulate the cheese on a pizza.

[Moonglow]

I prefer to know how many calories I eat at each meal it's called weight control. I also like to know the ingredients I am purchasing along with fat content for any future strokes I'd like to avoid..

If you are eating a pizza, you don't give a shit about weight control.

Why not?

 

[Sun Devil 92]

So sad about you flyover folks having to eat federally regulated “pizza”.

We have real, unregulated pizza here in NY.

Great.

How about you get some morals too ?

When I go to the local A&W, their menu, which is posted on the wall above the pass through from the kitchen, lists the calories for all their meals. I don’t know if it’s a legal requirement in Ontario but the information will certainly make me think twice about ordering both French fries and onion rings with my Mama burger.

The idea that asking a restaurant chain to post caloric content on their menus is an onerous burden is bullshit. All pizza joints have “house” choices with set ingredients and all big chains have test kitchens. The set menu is designed and dictated by head office, they’ll add the nutritional information to the next printing and it’s done. No ones asking them to provide exact information for every variation of their custom order combinations.

It’s tougher for the one-offs to provide the information but cheap and easy for the big chains.

One slice of pizza is actually a good balance of carbs, fats and protein, and as the crust is very air-filled, it actually isn't as calorie dense as other foods.

Pizza isn't unhealthy in itself... eating it 5 days a week however....

Morals?

 

[Skull Pilot]

You know lawyers would make it something to sue over.

Look at the moron who sued over the length of a subway "footlong"

Why The Subway 'Footlong' Lawsuits Fell Short

And the scary thing is that Subway actually had to settle to pay off the lawyer fees for the plaintiffs.

Yea....and
2X4s are not really two inches by four inches

Lawyers do what they do

Requiring nutritional information on what we eat is not the end of the world. Accuracy parameters can be established

Or people can just choose which stores to patronize and we can leave the feds out of it.

Why is your solution to the problems caused by more government always even more government?

Or people can just patronize establishments that comply with fire codes on their own and comply with the health code

Who needs government?

Fire codes involve actual danger and implied sets of standards for letting the public into a space.

Sorry, but that is not even in the same ballpark as having to estimate on your own the caloric content of your burger.

Argumentum ad absurdum.

Public health and safety

Safety?

A high calorie pizza is a safety hazard?

I agree. The bacon and pepperoni are high fat, as is the cheese, but with veggie toppings and proscuito instead of bacon, it’s not a terrible choice.

I generally eat clean and organic but I do occasionally get a yen for some good French fries or a nice pizza. It doesn’t mean I don’t care about my health or my weight. All things in moderation.

Most mozzarella is low fat skim milk cheese food used in the industry because it cost less than fat milk food product.....

It depends what you have put on it....I use lots of tomato sauce I make, herbs I grow and I make to dough myself to control how much if any of salts and oil goes into the crust...The oil is to make the crust crispy and dark.. So we usually have deep dish...and low fat mozzarella cheese, mushrooms and ham or pepperoni..which turkey version have a lower fat content..

I do I have books of list of calorie content for food products, been doing it since the 1970's when I decided to stop being a fat kid...

Grilled chicken is zero points on weight watchers, makes more room for the buffalo sauce of the bbq chicken pizza.

I was on weight watchers in the later 1960's I was so big, at 11 I was at 186 pounds...

Today's weight watcher experiment for dinner is if riced cauliflower can actually be a substitute for real rice (0 points per cup cooked vs. 5 points per cup cooked)

makes more room for the chicken sausage (5 points per link)

it works if you stay on it, and try not to be too far over on your weekly point allotment.

Down 21 lbs since january.

It also makes you want to work out as you "buy" more points via exercise.

I can remember a oven broiled hamburger patty was allowed when I was first on weight watcher at eight years old..

Now everything is allowed, but it has a point value assigned to it.

and booze is a lot of points.

I gain weight in the winter because of less physical activity but I usually stay around two hundred and thirty. When I could work full time I was usually at two hundred....I don't drink booze my worse is soda pop..
