A grumpy rant

Православни икониикониWithout going into much detail and backstory, I am annoyed, and you get to hear it.  (Short story, I didn’t word a statement particularly well and got smacked around a bit and I’m in no mood to even respond.)

I like whole milk.  I’ve been a whole milk drinker my whole life.  I will continue to enjoy it.  If I had kids, I would serve it to them.

This apparently makes me a potentially terrible parent and an idiot.

Yes, a cup of whole milk has 46% calories from fat.  But when you put it into the context of a 2000 calorie diet, that’s 3.5%.

So rather than demonize whole milk for that 46%, why not look at the big picture of your fat calories are in a day?  Or better yet, over the course of a week??

I will admit I am having an “I love cheese” day today.  I will have some high fat counts by the end of the day.  But I’m quite certain tomorrow is going to be an “I love carrots” day.
