Wegmans brand, Newman's Own, or homemade. That's it for me.

I think I just had an out-of-body experience thanks to my visceral disgust at the idea of sweet spaghetti sauce.

It's true. We refrigerate it all the time and it's fine! Elizabells is right - it doesn't crystallize or get weird in texture, just a bit thicker.

I don't care what people put it on as far as their own meals go, but you'd be better off not even asking me if I want any, because the answer is literally always "no". I just can't stand it.

Mayo, or malt vinegar.

I don't ordinarily comment on children's appearances, but the first thing I said out loud during this episode was, "that actress is hitting puberty already". She's just filling out like any normal girl going through it, but the costumers putting her in bulky clothing hides that to make her body appear more like the…

Lord, no, but thanks for the laugh! I've always hated to run.

There are many people who are immunocompromised, whether from HIV/AIDS or a number of other diseases. I worry constantly about a friend of mine with severe Crohn's because her immune system is so fragile as a result of her chronic disease, because although her mother got her vaccinated as a child, she could still…

Also, Walmart just got busted recently because they pay their workers so little that they have to rely on food stamps.

How is that a straw man? I'm asking you sincerely. Do you actually think it's inherently healthier to be skinny? I'm honestly not trying to pick a fight with you. I want to know your thoughts.

I'm lucky enough to make the kind of income that allows me to follow the meal plan I worked to set up with my GP and that I have five grocery stores within 10 minutes of my house, not to mention one that I can walk to from my office. I also have the free time on weekends to cook for myself so I can bring lunches to…

Yeah, me too. I'm glad I cut down on the drinking, if only because at least I'm not putting so many empty calories into my body. Honestly, I got fat because of a variety of factors - hormonal birth control, binge drinking, the wrong psych meds, too many desk jobs. Losing weight has been really hard, and I haven't been…

So it's healthier to be skinny, even if you drink too much and smoke a pack of cigarettes a day?

Of course! I mean, why just admit that we don't like to look at fat people?

I have a longtime friend with severe Crohn's disease. She has to rely on a feeding tube for her subsistence because basically the only things she can have are like, bread and cookies. Whenever she cooks for her boyfriend, she tastes the food and has to spit it back out again immediately. Crohn's sucks.

And that's all great advice, if you can afford it, the ingredients are available to you, and you have the time and energy to do this. But there are many people whose time is consumed with working 3 jobs to make the rent, or who are disabled and can't get out much, or who live in the inner city where there are…

That is demonstrably untrue.

I always drank diet soda, mostly for the caffeine, but I realized I mostly just like drinks that are fizzy and cold and couldn't care less about the sweet factor. So I've switched to seltzer and it satisfies all those soda cravings for me.

My dad's a pharmacist and has pretty much stated outright that based on his continuing education readings, hormonal birth control is a huge factor in women's weight. I've been on the pill since I was 17 - not PCOS, thank god, but I do suspect I have PMDD - and although it's just one factor in the weight I've gained…

My antidepressant is fortunately weight-neutral, but I was on some in my late teens and early 20s that gave me an extra 20 pounds or so. I think that made me even more depressed at the time.
