Read the original article, not this piece of news junk. The author of the CBS news piece conveniently neglected to mention that these findings about diacetyl were observed in in vitro cell cultures and not in any actual living organisms. Yes, it is interesting to see how diacetyl affects the formation/dissolution of beta-amyloid plaques, but to make such gross extrapolations from the test tube to the human body at this point is just crappy journalism.

Well, fruit juice makes people fat too. I think the general rule of thumb about feeling well and being healthy is to avoid eating anything manufactured by Big Food: General Mills, Nabisco, Quaker, Kraft, Nestle, Frito-Lay, Coca Cola, etc. Anything made by these companies is manufactured primarily for shelf life stability and attractiveness. Then they load it up with as much hydrogenated fat, sugar and salt as they can pack into a single bite to mask the flavor of all the chemical additives.

This is the single embodiment of everything wrong with America today:

My problem is polishing off a bag of potato chip or pop corn in front of the computer.

I have to keep up my walking habit.

I agree.With the crap they put into our food.I'm surprised that we are not glowing in the dark.

Another habit .I got to back off on the mayo.
