If you're like me, you've often asked yourself, "Why do Italians live longer and stay so trim while consuming daily portions of pasta?" Perhaps you even read the recent article debunking the notion that pasta makes you fat. Vindication for feeding my daughter pasta every day! (The truth is, she's at a picky stage where she won't eat much else.)
Yes, for me, it's comforting to see occasional examples of common sense and good science triumphing over fads and false hype. And yet it seems so challenging for logic to gain any traction when up against superior marketing.
