Reply to Impact of a Low-Insulin-Stimulating Bread on Weight Development—A Real Life Randomised Controlled Trial — rye bread from milled whole grain (control) or a medium-carbohydrate, low-insulin-stimulating bread (intervention). Significant weight reduction was observed in the intervention group. by Meatrition
Interesting, because the group getting the low-insulin stimulating bread lost weight, even though the two breads were similar in calories.

Reply to Study finds increased risk in 12,924 young adults (20 to 44Y) for cardiovascular disease, like hypertension, diabetes, and obesity by giuliomagnifico
I'm not surprised, most kids now have a cellphone, laptop etc. I didn't get any of that stuff until I was around 15 years old...
I spent most of my childhood being bored playing outside, sports or biking around the neighborhood.

You're inferring intent. It has to do with trademarks and product packaging regulations, nothing more.

Which is irrational, since these spellings are due to trademark laws.

I've always been partial to Melk, myself. It has twice the daily serving of Vitamin Z and no pesky nutrients to worry about!

in Austria, horse is the best meat, especially for our national to-go-food
"(pferd[e])|leber|käs|semmel".
pferd[e] = horse[s]
leber from laiber. laib = loaf
käse = cheese (it has the size of a cheese-loaf, before sliced)
semmel = kaiser.
don't be confused by the käseeberkässemmel, where cubes of Emmentaler cheese are added, before the leberkäs is baked in the oven.
both the leberkässemmel (without "pferde"), and the käsleberkässemmel are made from pork. confusing, but delicious.
ceterum censeo "unit libertatem" esse delendam.

So any portmanteau? Microsoft? Verizon? Velcro? Podcast? Cosplay, internet, brunch, botox, email, electrocute. Must be pretty annoying seeing all these made up words everywhere. You know all words are made up, right?

Intu is vile, everything they touch turns completely soulless. They took over the MetroCentre and removed all the plants and fountains and turned it into a clone if every other drab shopping center.

Yeah, now everyone who read this thread has the potential to start calling dresses frocks if they were to develop foreign accent syndrome
