My wife and I were watching some cooking show on TV the other day and they were visiting a Thai restaurant here in the states and she commented about how much oil and sugar they use in all the dishes. I knew they used a lot of oil, but I never realized the sugar. I eat whole fat greek yogurt every weekday morning. I have tried the reduced fat stuff in the past, but they add so much sugar and artificial sweetener to it that I honestly feel like the whole fat stuff is actually healthier for you! Have you ever heard the theory about how MSG really isn't bad for you and it was a hit piece by corn growers or something like that (I don't remember exactly).

This is absolutely true. your statement reminded me of a fad in the late 90's where there was a craze to have low-fat or no-fat alternatives to everything and everyone was reading labels ONLY for the fat content. I fell victim to this as well and we are all idiots I guess because in lieu of fat, they were throwing a ton of sweeteners in there that as it turns out is much worse for you than fat is!
