Sorry, I couldnāt find the original publication.
Eating a buttery pastry like a croissant every day can āsilentlyā increase the risk of serious heart problems, a study has found.
Researchers at Oxford University monitored volunteers who ate a diet high in saturated fat including croissants, cakes and sausages. Another group consumed healthier fats, such as salmon or nuts.
After 24 days, the group given food higher in fat were given an MRI scan and blood tests. Neither group were found to have gained weight, but those on a diet higher in fats saw their cholesterol rise by 10 per cent on average. There was also a 20 per cent rise in the amount of fat stored in the liver, which increases the risk of type 2 diabetes. The group who ate healthier fats saw a drop of 10 per cent in their cholesterol during the same period.
Lead researcher Nikola Srnic, from Oxford University, said: āItās the type of fat, not the amount of fat, thatās important.
āIt is interesting how you can see such a change so quickly, within three weeks. For diets that were higher in saturated fat we asked people to increase consumption of butter, whole fat dairy products, cakes and pastries. The polyunsaturated fat diet is higher in fats from fish, certain vegetable oils and certain nuts and seeds. āHe added: āThe results suggest that a diet high in saturated fat may negatively change cardiovascular disease risk factors even when a person does not gain weight. On the other hand, we saw protective effects if a person ate a diet high in polyunsaturated fat.ā

's OK, I'll respect the code of secrecy, I wasn't aware it was such a sensitive issue
I first heard this unappealing term in a Beach Boys song (Sloop John B) many years ago and looked them up to discover that āGrits are a type of porridge made from coarsely ground dried maize or hominyā.

well that sounds good
Porridge??? We don't eat no dang porridge in the South.
Grits are just ground corn.
If you've ever had polenta it's basically the same thing. And for God's sake don't try instant grits as a first timer. Stone ground, slow cooked are the only way to go. Especially with shrimp and gravy on them.
Porridge. I swear.
The Scots ears have pricked up.
Sweet cornā¦ground up into a smooth paste?
Are they gritty? Grittiness is one of the worst āmouth feelsā second only to fibrous/long hair-in-food.
If such a thing was available in my local Fortnum & Mason, I wouldnāt.
Ah yesā¦drive out all the nutritional value with long duration cookingā¦.
The Scots are on their way to your houseā¦theyāre not wearing any undies
There's an outfit near here that makes them from different corn. White, yellow, red even purple. Slightly different tastes and textures. They're not a smooth paste but not gritty either. Well, someone who doesn't know how to cook them can end up with gritty grits. Somewhere in between. We don't eat them for nutritional value, they're more of a filler. Plain grits don't have much flavor at all, most people season with salt and butter if you're not eating them with something else.The Scots ears have pricked up.

My girlfriend is of Scot descent.....so they're already here not wearing any undies
Grits are rich in iron and vitamin B. If cooked correctly, that are not gritty. Very popular in the south, especially with a little butter and sugar.The Scots ears have pricked up.

I am an oatmeal man myself and have never cared for the taste of grits.
