ATLANTA — Bread and rolls are the No. 1 source of salt in the American diet, accounting for more than twice as much sodium as salty junk food like potato chips.

That surprising finding comes in a government report released Tuesday that includes a list of the top 10 sources of sodium. Salty snacks actually came in at the bottom of the list compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

"Potato chips, pretzels, and popcorn — which we think of as the saltiest foods in our diet — are only No. 10," said CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden.

Breads and rolls aren't really saltier than many of the other foods, but people tend to eat a lot of them, said Mary Cogswell, a CDC senior scientist who co-authored the report.

A few years ago, coffee was supposed to kill us but a couple of years later, it was found to actually be good for you.
At one time, peanut butter was bad for you....what-ever.

Peanut butter is IF you are allergic to peanuts.   :sad:

Don't get me started on the peanut nonsense.
Libs always go over board with crap like this.

Five years ago, at a San Francisco elementary school, a nurse stood by to ensure that the children scrubbed their hands as they arrived, while their packed lunches were confiscated and searched for nut products. The measures were a precaution to protect a 5-year-old boy at the school who had a severe nut allergy.

In 2006 a town in Connecticut felled three hickory trees more than 60 feet high after a resident learned that the trees leaning over her property produced nuts and complained that they posed a threat to her grandson, who had nut allergies. (Read TIME's top 10 medical breakthroughs of 2008.)

Recently, a Massachusetts school district evacuated a school bus full of 10-year-olds after a stray peanut was found on the floor.

The world will be in deep do do if someone is allergic to water.   What about the people that are allergic to milk, are they going to pull all the milk out of the schools.   :cursing: 

Back home they were going to cut down a 200 year old tree for a new road.   The people made them build the road around it.   Now something like that I have no problem with.   Now we (I) know most lib's are allergic to work, do we all stop working.  Who the hell is going to pay taxes.   :lol:

You know, more than twice the the amount of people are allergic to milk than are peanuts.
This is what happens when the media runs with a story, all the lib sheep panic and want to ban it, or outlaw it.
