They have velveeta in Australia?  Sorry about that!

It's sold as Kraft "Cheddar" - but as I understand it is the same product.

I actually have a couple of bricks of the stuff in my emergency rations. God forbid that I ever have to use it for food.

I quit drinking them about 2 1/2 months ago. I've trimmed my diet up big time, by going with calories as lean proteins, whole grains and vegetables mostly, and shed about 25 lbs. of fat since the middle of Feb.

I drink my diet sodas every day for the most part. They haven't adversely affected MY weight loss over the last year.

Same here. I still eat apples too. From Wiki:

"Fructose is broken down by the body slowly and is converted into
SUCROSE and GLYCOGEN. Fructose is often recommended for, and consumed
by, people with diabetes mellitus or hypoglycemia, because it has a
very low Glycemic Index (GI 23) relative to cane sugar."

My Doc did say to stay away from corn/potatoes/white rice (brown is good/wild better), those are the worst.
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't eat apples. Really love Fujis. I limit rice/potatoes to MAYBE once a week and corn, fuggedaboudit.

Velveeta is mentioned if you listen closely !
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
