More on fruit and tortillas

I also find that I can make a nice little dessert [censored] by
wrapping the fruit in a tortilla with spices and
sweetening and baking it. This is kind of an
improvisational thing, so it's kind of "do your own
thing." If you get the low-fat tortillas, even us
perpetual dieters can have the occasional "pie."

LOL sort of a nonfried empanada.

NO, you CAN'T! Carbs make you FAT!

Having lost nearly 40 pounds by following a low-fat balanced
diet supervised by my dr, I regard all this low-carb stuff
with a large grain of salt. As far as other "diet" plans,
all I can say is "been there, done that, lost some, gained
it back" After the time I have spent learning better habits,
I think I am going to have a lot easier time keeping it off.
Believe it or not, doughnuts and brownies no longer even
LOOK good to me. Anyway, if it works for you, fine, but
don't jump on every bandwagon that passes by.

calories a day with no carbs and you will become a schizo

from all the food groups and you will be a normal HEALTHY-
HAPPY human being.

He usually runs a weekly sindicated newspaper column, but
you can also find his articles on the net. ;-)

Glad you liked it as much as I did, and thanks to the OP

Oh, he has LOTS of books out, the guy's been
around for years, and he's one of my favorite
humor writers. 🙂 Some are compilations of older
articles, so people can do some catch-up reading.
Particularly funny were _Dave Barry's Guide to
Guys_ and _Dave Barry Does Japan_.

Here's the URL to where his recent columns can be
found:

If one wants even lower carb, use pre-made eggroll skins to
make [censored].
:-) Tortillas are kinda thick.

Then why not do real corn tortillas, which have more fiber
than any "whole wheat" tortilla?

And taste a lot better.

On the occasion that I eat tortillas, I do. ;-)

But somehow, I just don't think that corn tortillas would
make good fruit [censored]. <G>

Someone brought some delicious apple flautas to a brunch at
school on Friday. They were basically apple pie mixture
wrapped in a tortilla and then fried.
