[QUOTE="KennyA, post: 2747567, member: 517579"] I did a talk last year to a local group about low carb. the talk involved a meal and they said they'd do a low-carb meal. The problem was that they were convinced that low-carb was low-fat. Was a pie alright? How about pasta? Then I was asked if vegan was OK? I think I suggested some roast meat and a salad about six times, but was told that they'd do me something low fat. In the end I received some boiled (skinned) chicken and steamed vegetables. What I used to think of as invalid food. I honestly think that no matter how many times I said it, they simply didn't understand that I didn't care about fat.... "because fat is bad innit". [/QUOTE]
