I still like them WITH butter - will not eat them with margarine....
And your point is? If I was to spend as much time worrying about what
I eat as some people I observe on this site do, I may as well quit
eating and/or living. You are consumed by your dietary regimen.
The point is to eat sensibly and healthy overall. The body is a
wondrous machine, capable of screening, filtering producing and
blending most anything it needs or does not need, including things
that may be on the unhealthy side. I agree avoiding excesses of these
ingredients, but the most undesirable of all food additives is MSG.
Might as well eat poison. The other thing I avoid like the plague, is
anything that has the word diet in it. Give me the real thing, not
some processed food that has been depleted of beneficial elements, and
substituted with additives to improve taste.
The real point is to enjoy life, the food you eat and quit worrying
about every minute ingredient that goes in the gut. Worry is more of
a cause of stress than poor food choices, so less worry and more
laughter and enjoyment of life is a better pill to swallow and follow.
So, yes Rice Krispie treats are great and I will continue to enjoy
them on occasions.
As far as the fat issue goes, a little more research into the
saturated fats versus polyunsaturated fats will help one determine the
right choice here. Natural animal fats are by far much better,
healthier from both a scientific and common sense approach than
processed, heat treated, hydrogenated polyunsaturated vegetable oils.
Olive oil is a monosaturated fat, and is beneficial as well. Virgin
Coconut Oil is an even better choice for cooking and the diet.
In fact, it has been proven that saturated fats are actually
beneficial to the heart and vascular system. Plaque buildup, when
properly analyzed, is actually a buildup of polyunsaturated fats, NOT
saturated fats as they would have us believe. Here again, the
disinformation campaign racks up a victory by pinning plaque buildup
as caused by saturated fats.
The food industry which founded and still funds in large part, the
American Heart Association, is still kept in their back pocket. To
this day, they continue to be the primary proponent of and for the
hype and disinformation about the fat issue over the past 50+ years.
The whole Heart Healthy labeling campaign has been perhaps the most
successful ad campaign Madison Ave has created, and a major source of
revenue for the AHA.
A whole generation has been educated/misinformed to believe that
saturated fats are bad for us, while polyunsaturated fats are good for
us. Big pharma also reaps the benefits from promoting statin drugs to
lower cholesterol, which has also suffered a smear campaign. The body
will produce a certain amount of cholesterol that it requires,
regardless of our lowered intake. Those levels are unique to each one
of us, and do not always fit within the "guidelines" of the mandated
cholesterol schedule. Even the statin drug ads make light of this
source of cholesterol when they pronounce the two sources - family and
food.
The dairy industry is a whipping boy as well. Why are there so many
laws on the books not allowing the public access to raw milk? For
thousands of years, and still in rural populations, man has consumed
raw milk with no ill effects. It wasn't until the pasteurization and
homogenization of milk, together with the introduction of
polyunsaturated fats that Coronary Heart Disease made into medical
journals in the 1920's. Improvements in refrigeration, which were the
primary reason for pasteurization, are no longer an issue - so why
continue to deny raw milk to the public.
Read up on low fat and skim milk for a real eye opener. If one was
educated as to the source and the manufacturing process used for these
types of milk touted as being healthy substitutes for whole milk, it
would literally turn your stomach upside down. Hydrogenated milk fat
is added back into these diluted blends for "taste," otherwise it
would be awful to drink.
For truthful information on cholesterol, I recommend the book "The
Cholesterol Myths" available for a nominal fee from the Weston Price
Foundation.

PS - Why would someone use the micro to make Rice Krispie treats? You
can't control the melting process. It's much easier and faster to use
the stove. So your assumption is just that - an assumption.
