Re: Let Them Eat Cake

Hey - don't growl at me, Floydy, I wasn't criticizing you.

It just makes me wonder sometimes who these survey people consult - and why do the younger generation think they know so much about us oldies?

They do not cook or eat much fruit or vegetables.
Chocolate cake is a favourite and the sugar and fat content makes your weight stable.
I think Elderly people like me,..should eat what they like when they like.




Oooooohhhh - I like the thought of this - bring it on !!!

Re: Let Them Eat Cake

None of us are getting out of here alive and we are already getting on a bit .
Old people who are thin are usually very old .
So they can eat cake etc
There are not many really old overweight people they just don't live that long .

So if you are 70 you have already had a good run for your money .

Its is the overweight young I feel for .
And there are so many of them they will not make old bones .

ST, I agree with you. I think, you are what you eat.

I eat cakes occasionally but l make them myself, not shop cakes that are filled with chemicals and other tack. Cakes have fats and eggs in them which l think you need.

My doctor told me off for eating butter but l have eaten it all my life and have been very healthy. I have good skin and people think l am much younger than my age.

There are lots of younger people who probably look older than us! They eat stupidly and probably aren’t in the best of health either!
