... Is it possible that the cellulose-laden Parmesan cheese was not grated, that it was never originally constituted as a solid block? ... Anything is possible. Have you ever bought a no-name brand at the dollar store? I did once and I wouldn't have doubted it. My video cites a brand that was found to have no cheese at all!
THE GRATE UNKNOWN

That's an enlightening video. Thanks!
1. Cellulose is organic, like Buddy Hackett. 2. Wood, Newmie ... Wood. Wood is good. 3. We need roughage in our diets, so there you have it in a tasty form. 4. We should purchase some packaged grated cheese and have it analyzed by a lab. 5. Wood pulp can move, baby!

1. Cellulose is organic, like Buddy Hackett.
- But it's not edible!
- Not only does too much make your turds float--
- It will also make you fart.
2. Wood, Newmie ... Wood. Wood is good.
- Natalie Wood is good, but not wood pulp!
3. We need roughage in our diets, so there you have it in a tasty form.
- Only soluble fiber is beneficial.
- Inulin is the best I've found. Prebiotic too!
4. We should purchase some packaged grated cheese and have it analyzed by a lab. 5. Wood pulp can move, baby!

1. As you point out, too much cellulose makes your turds float and it will also make you fart. The connection, I guess, is that the turds are loaded with flatulence. Makes sense? Cou' be! 2. I could listen to you talk about cellulose all day.

1. The cellulose used is a plant derivative, not wood pulp. 2. It is FDA approved and safe. 3. Some brands add too much but it is still harmless. 4. Your 'evidence' is a CBS morning show quoting a sensationalised article. 5. One brand doing the wrong thing isn't evidence of widespread wrong doing.

1. The cellulose used is a plant derivative, not wood pulp. - What's important is digestibility.
2. It is FDA approved and safe. - An oxymoron
- At time$, thi$ make$ it $afe.
3. Some brands add too much but it is still harmless. - It depends on which doctors you ask.
4. Your 'evidence' is a CBS morning show quoting a sensationalised article. - You can find many more sources if you look.
5. One brand doing the wrong thing isn't evidence of widespread wrong doing. Well Krafted response, Hawkeye-Costanza.

Cellulose is harmless, it's in all types of fruits and vegetables. Next thing you will be bringing 'big pharma,' into the argument.

You are right about some fruits. That white stringy stuff inside citrus fruits is also indigestible fiber.

what's the status of the calzone? who is having one for lunch today? I had one for dinner tonight. I started at IHOP which was giving away free pancakes all over the country. The crowd outside and full parking lot turned me off from staying there.
One block away is the restaurant with the $11.50 spaghetti calzone! I was drawn there by a tractor beam and ordered one. The spaghetti was baked inside and didn't do much for the calzone IMO. It was definitely the best of the three, however, thicker and fuller and with more marinara sauce plus free breadsticks. It also was the best deal on pizza toppings--$.70 and they were more geneous amounts. I'll go back, but no spaghetti guts next time!

I ate another $5.99 calzone last night. It will be my last for a while. I got up this morning and weighed in at 400 pounds.

I've still never had a calzone. Much better than a pizza, especially if you're not fond of tomatoes. Usually, they don't include them and give you a cup of Marinara sauce. Almost always they include ricotta cheese, usually a pizza extra. My bargain $5.99 is made from a 12" pizza round. I would say that only about half of the Italian restaurants in a given area even offer them. It takes longer to bake them correctly than a pizza. That's why the $6.99 that was delivered in a half hour was such a disaster.

They have two sizes of cannoli, but I was unable to find any calzones on their online menu. I called to find out if they still make them and had to leave a message.
I talked to them during their slow period. Yes, they have calzones, but only on their lunch menu from 11:00 to 3:00. π π π π π π π π π π π
sounds like a party!

Elaine ordering a calzone at the movie theater concession stand: "Do you want Marinara sauce?" "Does it contain real tomatoes?" "It's tomato-flavored!" "What is it made of?" "It's red!"

I found out my favorite calzone place will allow you to substitute Alfredo for Marinara. I'm definitely going to try that next time. I don't care much for tomatoes.

Not your cousin who could communicate only by blinking? Of course not. What was I thinking? She's in France.
As far as tomato shrinkage, they wouldn't have had this problem if they hadn't watered them so much. You see, that's what water does. It shrinks things.

If the Soup Nazi ran a calzone place: Customer: "I'd like to substitute Alfredo for Marinara."
Soup Nazi: "Alfredo? Arrivederci!"
