Yeah...what's worse are the sushi rolls with a million tiny orange flying fish eggs on top...(I think of Nemo everytime..)

haha yea ive had those before. they have a weird texture.

hey fruit is just ripened ovaries...so wtf eggs cant be worse than that.

haha, touche. No but really.......balut? I can barely even look at pictures.
 
i remember seeing a couple of weeks ago a bit on 60 minutes about resveratrol. some researchers believe that with som tweaking, this stuff can be used to lengthen life, since it would basically keep people healthy without adopting healthy habits.

i'm skeptical, but imagine if this actually happened? i think it could be controversial.

welcome to the south....probably ten times as much rain as you guys are used to...
and 1.5 hour presentation?!?!?! wtf...mine isonly 20 minutes.

Actually I am back at UCLA right now which is why I am angry that it is raining... in Virginia, I completely understand... It actually started lightly snowing after my VCU interview... but here in SoCal, it is not supposed to rain...
 
No TV... actually I still need to catch up on the last 3? PP...

Was there a new grey's last week? I forgot to check!😱
The only shows i watch now are House (ive been kind of slack with this lately though), and the Biggest loser.

Glory, you joined this thread afterwards, but pianola and I discovered that Berk's name is Jane... not Rachel...

Dang. All along I thought her name was Rachel D. Berken, I guess her real name is Jane Doe Berken

Yeah, salmon egg sushi rolls taste much fishier and are even bigger. What's balut?

I read that there's an exotic and quite expensive dish in Taiwan, where neonatal mice are dipped in goblets containing very expensive liquor, and then the eaten, followed by the drinking of the liquor. It's called "Drunken Mice" or something like that.

When I went to my professor's house for dinner, she served us some salmon roe and potato spread... it was actually pretty good... I believe it is some sort of Greek dish... maybe some of the greek 2013ers knows what it is called?

they brought that up in the clip, i think they said you'd have to eat some insane amount in order to get an effective amount of resveratrol.

haha, i probably would. But seriously, how can you call diabetes a disease of age when you have kids being diagnosed as early as 8, 9, 10 years old (maybe younger). Thers a reason they dont call it adult-onset diabetes anymore.

lol type 1 vs type 2?....when they are that young it has to be type 1..right???
 
what about when you get up there in age?? 80?

what about it? is 80 the magic number for your arteries to fill with plaque? if you eat a healthy diet and maintain healthy cholesterol, then it wont ever be deposited and you wont ever have heart disease.

There may be more of a case with diabetes, seeing as you get older it may be harder to exercise, but even then, diabetes isn't caused because of your old age. there will always be ways to exercise. you dont need to be running marathons. there are ways for elderly people to exercise appropriately and it still has the same benefits. And you can still eat healthily....

note: i'm talking about type II here, not type I
