I couldn't agree more with this article.

The low fat dogma had everyone over the last 20 years quaffing down orange juice, apple juice, and any kind of juice in unprecedented amounts by merely saying, "oh, don't drink soda. drink juice as if it were water. it has no fat, don't worry about it." Jeez, soda has no fat either and its less calories than a glass of orange juice, right?

I'm the first to admit that I'm prone to have my sweets occasionally. Food for thought here. If I were to cut out a can of Coke and a glass of orange juice, that's about 400 calories. Now, with that 400 calories, I can eat about 1.5 cups of rich ice cream.

So, for now, it's goodbye to soda and juices for a while. I'll settle for a cup of ice cream and an orange.
