EFF sorry. I know this isn't the right place for this, but I couldn't find a help button. I just wanted to let you know there are some bugs in the challenge I'm doing. (3 servings of vegetables a day)...

EFF I just wanted you to have some feedback.

Do wheat tortillas contain extra sugar?
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Great question. Many wheat tortillas do have added sugar, e.g. Mission brand tortillas and Mayan tortillas. However there are some great brands that I love that don't have added sugar like the...

saidaj Well, I live in Mexico and the tortillas that my mom buys are handmade and not store bought. Thus, there is no label.
Is Simply Lite Low Carb Dark Chocolate Sugar-Free 50% Cacao okay for this challenge? Is it healthy or best to just skip it?
-
DietID_TeamDietitians I would suggest skipping it because one of its main ingredients is Maltitol, a sugar alcohol or sweetener. Though it is not as sweet as sugar, it’s still an artificial sweetener, which you should...
-
AlexB Okay cool! Thank you. I just usually have one square of super dark chocolate.
-
annefood It's best to just skip it. Sugar alternatives tend to cause gastrointestinal issues when eaten in excess. I eat 100% cacao chips with dried fruit for a little dessert sometimes. No added sugar or...
What do you think are the biggest issues in food today?
Is it in food production? Distribution? Access? Waste? Consumer education? Legislation? Something else entirely? Would love to hear what you guys think.
-
katewilson I'm voting food waste but I'm thrilled to see how much efforts are being put behind it now
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter I still feel the dietary guidelines are inadequate. If the USDA could consider the public over corporations, we'd have better direction.
-
sugardetoxme It's two parts for me. Food waste is obviously huge. If good food was about actually feeding people then we wouldn't have hunger, but food has become a business. But let's also talk about the big...

Curious about your opinions on latte art - true artistry or wasted effort?
I can appreciate a good latte or cappuccino even without the decorative foam flourish.
Just give me my coffee!

DietID_TeamDietitians I tend to love it. It feels so much more special than just a drink to start your day. When a barista spends an extra few seconds on latte art, it makes me feel like the latte is made with more...

JenniferEmilson Too true!
So does drinking milk count?
-
bananazen92 Apparently, there was a study that this was not healthy for you, actually. According to the study, drinking eight glasses of water a day, even when you aren't thirsty can stop your gag reflex. This...
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter @bananazen92- I'm not aware of this study but I would take it with a grain of salt. Everyone requires different amounts of water depending on various factors (ex. physical activity, age, stress...

ritujat thanks! @darkchocolatepeanutbutter and @bananazen92
