A friend who isn't into lifting for diet at all sent me this. He is just a very politically active mofo. Kudos to him.

Interesting read...I've sent the articles to some of my colleagues in fitness. Thanks for the post.

Definitely a good read..

It's something I've noticed for a long time, but never went and actually researched.

Just look, there's a "dollar menu" at most fast food places... even beyond that, look at PEANUT BUTTER. 2 bucks can net you 3500 calories!
