Oh, okay. So Wiley figures it’s only men who are annoyed by being told that they should eat something ‘because it’s good for them’. News flash: not.

“food to take you to you bliss”: Somewhere along the way, I’ve missed this part. I think all of that began with the invention of the TV flipper and the ability to blast thru commercials. Guess I’m lucky, at least that way.

Real men do eat quiche, Wiley.

Real men eat whatever they damn well want. Come to think of it, so do real women. Seems like too many women have no idea how refreshing it is for a guy to take one on a dinner date and not listen to her whine for 30 to 45 minutes about all the things she can’t have on the menu.
She says we’ll both have the steak, with mushrooms and onions, au gratin potatoes, brocolli, and a beer.

Wow, Kate has the answer to such hot wind. Just so everyone is still warmed up. So now we are promoting healthy eats? Oh well, it will lead to more stories a little off the ‘for real’ track.

My wife is an excellent cook and cooks “healthy” almost all the time. All the meals, even he good stuff is delicious.
My problem isn’t that I eat too much of the bad stuff; I eat too much of the good stuff.
Nonetheless, I am convinced that there is nothing one can do to broccoli to make it fit for human consumption. I must have tried it 25 different ways and still can’t find a way I can even tolerate.

One of the things I hate most about the internet is the need so many people have to make an argument out of anything and everything, and do so with the childish tactic of applying bizarre absolutes to refute anything that’s been said.
“Not ALL (men/women/lawyers/athletes, whatever the topic is) are like that!”. Well, duh. You cannot apply anything to any group of people, no matter how much it’s based in fact, and have it apply to universally.
Child, please. Citing an exception does not disprove the rule. Grow up.
Then there’s the hilariously insipid attempt to employ a tired old quip as a counter point, only to have it ironically support the other’s point. We see that here with, “real men don’t eat quiche”. My only hope here is that it was meant to be ironic. Have you bothered to look at the ingredients for making quiche? It’s almost nothing but fatty, artery-clogging junk that has almost no nutritional value.

The quiche thing was an ‘80s parody about “real men.”If you’ve got something to prove you’re a wannabee.

My wife is vegan. We share approximately 0% of our food. Actually, I’ll force feed myself some of her steamed vegetables as a side dish, because I should, but that’s about it. She won’t even share my rice, pasta or potatoes, because they’re “empty calories.”

I once hid fresh spinach in a salad to get a friend to eat one of the foods she hated.
as to quiche – though there is much in quiche that could be considered ‘unhealthy’…. it is made with eggs. An egg. High in iron. High in protein. High in vitamin A. A large egg is 70 calories. 50% of your daily allotment of B12.
I like eggs. And here’s a list of some of their eggy goodness … from the Canadian Egg Marketing Board located at www.eggs.caIron
Carries oxygen to the cells, helps prevent anemia – the iron in eggs is easily absorbed by the body
Vitamin A
Helps maintain healthy skin and eye tissue; assists in night vision
Vitamin D
Strengthens bones and teeth; may help protect against certain cancers and auto-immune diseases
Vitamin E
An antioxidant that plays a role in maintaining good health and preventing disease
Vitamin B12
Helps protect against heart disease
Folate
Helps produce and maintain new cells; helps prevent a type of anemia, helps protect against serious birth defects if taken prior to pregnancy and during the first 3 months of pregnancy
Protein
Essential for building and repairing muscles, organs, skin, hair and other body tissues; needed to produce hormones, enzymes and antibodies; the protein in eggs is easily absorbed by the body
Selenium
Works with vitamin E to act as an antioxidant to help prevent the breakdown of body tissues
Lutein and zeaxanthin
Maintains good vision; may help reduce the risk of age-related eye diseases, such as cataracts and macular degeneration
Choline
Plays a strong role in brain development and function
