On May 12th, 2005, he wolfed 252 bananas, 8 coconuts, 4 pineapples, 48 walnuts, 10 pounds of carrots, and 6 pounds of raw peanut butter. As a result, he gained 2.4 pounds, which he considers small compared to the amount of food he consumed. --— Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew Lin (talk • contribs)
warning - do not do what andrew says, i did not know he had done this yesterday but his face was red and he was sweating perfusely, not a good thing by any means --- agata bugaj — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew Lin (talk • contribs)
You are not at all qualified to make a judgement about my experiment. Firstly, you still believe bananas make you fat even after I proved otherwise. And secondly, you continue to consume non-natural foods (artificial sweeteners). --— Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew Lin (talk • contribs)
ok u win but what'z the deal with stuffing bananas aren't they expensive --— Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew Lin (talk • contribs)
Sure bananas cost money, but it's still better than eating fast-food 4 or 5 times a week, like I used to. Besides I have nothing to do with my money anyways. --— Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew Lin (talk • contribs)
Let me clear up this debate on bananas. Naturally, it would appear Asians genetically have a body that is more apt to eating large amounts of carbs on a regular basis. This is because for some hundreds of thousands of years, they have been developing under a high-carbohydrate diet, namely one high in rice and vegetables. This may be why you can eat that many bananas without much of a weight gain. If Agata or I repeat the same experiment, we may not see the same result. - Janet Fisher — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.2.247.45 (talk • contribs)
Thank you very much. Well, whatever the reason, it's good to know my favorite food won't cause any weight gain for me! - Andrew Lin (— Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.170.0.238 (talk • contribs) ---

Stop Drinking Soda means to stop drinking carbonated beverages containing either refined sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and/or aspartame, and in some cases sucanat as well. All of these ingredients are known to cause diseases in humans that can be prevented outright by Stop Drinking Soda --— Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew Lin (talk • contribs)
Recipe for All-Natural Soda: Add about 100 grams of Sucanat (high in vitamins and minerals) or 0.5 grams of pure Stevia (calorie free) to each 1 liter of seltzer water. Serve cold. --— Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.170.0.238 (talk • contribs)
