Questionable Advice.

I remember some years ago when I’d put a lot of weight on and was seriously dieting, there was a standard piece of advice given by those in the know:

‘If you feel like munching between meals, don’t eat high fat, high salt, high calorie foods like crisps; satisfy your craving with a piece of fruit instead.’

Oh yeah? Whenever I eat a piece of fruit to satisfy my craving, I immediately get an even bigger craving for something savoury like a packet of crisps or a cheese sandwich. I just had a plum.
