South Beach Diet....... WTF is this nonsense, and why does it seem to reappear every few months. It was bad enough 3 years ago when all the goofy little hippie restaurants opened here with the south beach menu. Now its apparently back, only this time slightly revised. Who eats this crap? Its not even that healthy if you are an even moderately active individual. The whole plan lacks a reasonable supply of sodium, carbs, potassium, and.... OH YEAH, TASTE. Its amazing. It takes things that should taste good and then denudes them of all flavor. In addition it blends things into the most god awful textures ever. Quinoa pasta al dente.... I think not! Then there was this beast featured under quick breakfasts. 1 Mini pita 2 Slice tomato and place on top of pita 3 Sprinkle with spinich 4 Top with 1 egg Bake 5 minutes at 350 5 Top with Feta Pita..... yup tasty Tomato....tasty Spinich.....goes well in things Egg....incredible and edible Feta.....makes it betta NOPE. Pure crap. Had no flavor what so ever. At least its healthy. That would be the case at least assuming you can choke it down. Egg over easy, filled with chunks of tomato pulp, spinach, whole wheat pita, with just a hint of feta chunks..... It feels like what embryonic stem cells look like......... pre-harvest. With that my list has been amended. Michael Moore Agatston - author of the south beach diet Oprah are now the top three people I most want to punch in the face. So congrats to you hippie boy. You now officially annoy me more than Oprah. Fat women and hippies all over the world will see through this some day and will be angry. Hell hath no fury like a fat ladies scorn.
