When I get to the end of the article and it says in large print
> Why you shouldn't exercise to lose weight
and then the heading over a video
> The science is in: exercise isn't the best way to lose weight
I can't help thinking that this kind of web journalism is itself just junk food. /rant
Anyway, I wonder what the author would call breakfast in Spain. I was recently in Barcelona, and the breakfast there was, just as my wife remembered from years ago in Valencia, chocolate croissant with cafe con leche, where "leche" is what we'd call condensed milk, and they give you three tube-shaped packets of sugar to go with it. I looked for a good while to find an "English" breakfast, i.e. eggs, and they served them with French fries.
edit: To clarify my rant, I wasn't objecting to the claim about exercise, so much as the presentation. It's the endless gravy train of tabloid-style "x is good/bad," at once patronising and pandering, which only further undermines its credibility by claiming that "the science is in." Oh really, the science is in this time. I'm glad we can finally put this behind us.
