What if there is something about growing up to be violent that leads to a craving for sugar? what if they do not have sugar available in the home on whatever <i>day of rest</i> they observe? The study stated that, <i>Confectionery consumption was reduced to a binary variable (every day = 1, less often or never = 0) owing to small numbers in the violence variable.</i> ???? <i>owing to small numbers in the violence variable.</i> Are they complaining that there is not enough violence? Are they admitting that the numbers are too small to draw any conclusions from, no matter how politically correct? I could make every meal mostly sugar, but fast one day a week, or have only healthy food the one day that Granny visits, or something else. I could write a book on a <i>Sugar Diet</i>, with a day of fasting, for weight loss and violence prevention. I could appear on Oprah. She could include my book in her book club. all i have to do is think positively, after all, it isn't any more ridiculous than <i>The Secret</i>, is it? I love your last paragraph. Sweeeet!
