Eat all the fat parts of ... wot?

Seems to me that if you ate those bright orange, cloud-shaped, chicken-of-the-forest mushrooms, you'd at least appear to be what you eat.

Just suggestin'.

But aside from the limits of stretching out your vertebrae, stretching out your neck is not likely to do much either this generation or next.

Tell that to these people.

And I spent one summer eating pages out of the Encyclopedia Brittanica, and I didn't get one jot smarter. "You are what you eat" my ass.

You should've eaten the American version. Fewer calories.

Yeah, well, abuse biology for the sake of an easy point.

Actually LaMarck was much deeper than this oft misused example, and there is quite interesting evidence of a more subtle "LaMarckism" that's been discovered the last decade.

Well I inherited all this money from a Nigerian leader who died in a plane crash, car crash, etc, and conveniently left me a huge inheritance of $25 million for the small fee of $5,000. I am still waiting for it to arrive, but am sure it will, so I will gladly pay you Tuesday, if I can buy into your most awesome business today.

"you get fat by eating fat" is like saying your neck grows longer by stretching for low-hanging leaves.

Actually, that's not the part of Lamarckian evolution that biologists have problems with. Rather, it's the corresponding idea that you'd then pass that slightly longer neck on to your children!

Reminds me of the Catholic birth control pill - put it between the girl's knees and never let it go.

Sew your mouth shut, works wonders.

I still favor the fatty chicken diet - eat all the fat parts of a chicken that you can, feel sick and nauseous and completely full the rest of the day, lather, rinse, repeat.

"Fat-free" is a recipe for feeling famished. "you get fat by eating fat" is like saying your neck grows longer by stretching for low-hanging leaves.

(PS - but I really don't know what I'm talking about and never had to worry about losing weight)
