Re: Pinterest Pinning Leads to Pounds Gained....

[Guest guest]

So is the food network, which pretty much promotes high fat high calorie

high sugar foods also a problem? And what about Bon Appetit and other foodie

magazines? If these are a problem, then do healthier sites promote

healthier eating? Playing devil's advocate here because I do agree that it's

tempting to try those gorgeous recipes but how often do people actually do it.

Interesting opportunity for graduate research! How influential is Pinterest?

This is the kind of thing that bugs me. Even Nutrition Daily 90% of the

recipes posted are for a sweet of some sort. Dessert use to be for Sunday's

maybe. Holiday's and Grandpa's visits, now it is a daily occurrence. Fruit

was always available but cookies a real treat.
