HUH, Mr. Smartypants??

"Italian researchers say eating pizza could protect against cancer."

I mean...what possible motive for lying could they HAVE? So they're Italian. so WHAT?

It's PIZZA and it just might save your LIFE..

1. I doubt Dr. Atkins says anything about it.

He's dead.

[sus]

2. oh suuuure he is. Just like Elvis and Andy Kaufman. uh-huh. (wink-wink.)

3. I will admit he may still be alive...

Living in some cavern under his old mansion.

Then again, he may very well have cracked his head after slipping on that patch of ice and actually be dead.

4. It's not the pizza per se--, its the TOMATO SAUCE!!!

Tomato products have been shown to impart a protective affect due to their leukopenes against prostate and certain other forms of cancer.

IT IS NOT THE PIZZA, the crust, the cheese, the toppings. ITS THE TOMATO SAUCE. So, your jab at the low carb king, is highly misplaced. Tomatoes and other fruits and vegetebles are a hallmark part of low carb diets.....

6. But .. But

Well-made pizza has less sauce on it than you'd think.

10. THis is an Italian study... Italian pizza is not at ALL like the American

CRAP...... (with its grotesquely thick crusts and garbage cans worth of cheese and topics....)

5. It's the lycopine in the tomatoes

which are to be found in abundance on pizza. :9

You don't have to eat pizza to get the lycopine, though it certainly is pleasurable.

I occasionally eat thin crust pizza.

7. Pizza is good for you

I don't care what the scientists say. Just make your own and go light on the cheese and greasy toppings. At that point it's just bread, dairy, protein, fruit and vegetables in a compact package. It tastes good too. :)

9. Make your own whole grain dough, and it's absolutely a perfect food.

8. Who cares?

I don't care what the guy said (or would say) about anything. And that's all that matters to me.

11. but...but..he had such good things to say about YOU...
