Grumble
May.31, 2006, filed under Miscellany
So I’m finding myself somehow sidling into planning my diet (no, this is NOT a get into your bikini diet) based not only on whether foods are protein or carb and alkali or acid forming; now I’m somehow considering the GI as well.
I’m fairly sure I didn’t agree to this. I haven’t got the spare brain capacity to worry about whether I’m about to eat a pork chop in the middle of an insulin spike, for fuck’s sake.
Plus it seems that no one can agree where to draw the line between moderate and high GI. I’m happy to stay, mostly, off the high GI foods — they make me feel bloated anyway. That’s why I only eat green bananas. Maybe that’s what I should do. Ignore the stupid lists and go on what my body tells me.
My body tells me that the maple syrup on toasted plastic bread I had yesterday was pretty high GI.
Oh, incidentally. Ythy? Got some stupid advert advice for you. According to the Warburton’s ad campaign, their bread is “scientifically proven to control kids’ hunger.”
So there you go. Bet you didn’t know you needed to eat special bread tested by scientists to make sure it stops you feeling hungry, or that there are breads that don’t stop kids feeling hungry.
