How I linked my comments to carcinogens? You said I claimed that salt was a carcinogen and the posts you quoted showed that wasn't true.


Quoting you from page 1:

Really.   You have seen the results of its accuracy for years?  How so?  Did you chemically analyze your loco moco from Zippys?

I record every calorie, gram, milligram, protein, carbs, sodium, etc. of everything I eat, every day.  I use My Fitness Pal every day.  I know if I'm hitting or missing based on what the scale, bodyfat, clothes, and mirror tell me. I also have a salt tooth, so my diet is pretty high in sodium.  Not a good thing.  So, do I know for a fact the app I use is 100 percent accurate?  No.  Do I have a pretty good idea?  Yes.  Do I know more about it than someone who has never used it?  Absolutely. 


On what basis do you say the app is not accurate?

BB now has the ability to see the results of its (myfitnesspal's) accuracy for years!

Yet he doesn't for sure if its accurate.  

 :D

Ozmo claims the app is inaccurate, but cannot say how.   :)

And if you're being honest, you'd add "100 percent."  But only if you're being honest.

Didn't I just tell you that critical thinking is not your thing?  

There is no guarantee that any method is 100 percent accurate.  It takes a real cognitive deficit to conclude the preceding statement means any method is not accurate at all.  

Didn't I tell you thinking in general is not your thing?

6 pages of this thread is evidence of it.  But carry on, I say this little rabbit hole of yours can reach 9 pages by Saturday.

Good point.  Although I don't believe it will end there. 

It may, but we truly have no basis for knowing this.

No basis?  You don't believe government regulation creeps?  You've never seen that happen?

Running low on red herring?

Scan pickled herring with your app for years and you will know its accurate then you can say you don't know for sure it is.  Then face palm again.

Or if you weren't so dam LAZY, you can do the chemical analysis yourself tonite.

Not saying that, but don't people vote in for their government.

You get the government you vote for after all.

I agree.  Or the government you don't vote for, given our abysmal voter turnout.

Look in the red herring section.  Maybe there's a bar code for it too.   :D

Maybe.  Bar codes are awesome.  You would really love them, because you don't have to manually input anything.  Just scan right from your phone.  Perfect for a lazy man.   :D

Then they could put them on menus.   Wait, that would bankrupt the chain restaurant industry.
