Nope, it actually does take a few more calories to eat than it has, the real work comes from digesting it which burns the colories.m3thod wrote:

The energy needed to eat celery is more than that gained from eating it.

It's false.

You can't eat it's liver (polar bear) as it's poisonous.Noobeater wrote:
If you were to eat nothing but Rabbit meat then you would die from lack of vitamins, over a long period of time of course.
You cannot eat raw polar bear as it contains tiny tiny worms that survive digestion and eat you, you actually waste away after eating polar bear raw.

I don't think there is anything you could solely survive on - there is no perfect food. There's near perfect grains, proteins, veggies, but nothing you could eat and survive on (except maybe blood?). I'd say that's common sense, not a random fact.Noobeater wrote:

There's a difference between calorie consumption and no food. Starvation means you don't get any food. You would eventually have problems from severe malnutrition of you ate/drank nothing but celery and water. True and it's been proven. The celery it's self virtually has no negative calories - essentially neutral for amount you eat to energy needed to consume it, but it's the fiber it has that's quite hard to digest that uses the most work and burns the most calories - resulting in negative calories.m3thod wrote:

You're a fucking dickhead, in a moment of brainfart I tried to without realising where I am. Now everyone in this computer room is staring at me quizzically. Yes I'm talking about you you nosy bitch, stop looking at my screen!xBlackPantherx wrote:

It costs a lot to brew? Fuckin' Hell they're doing it REALLY wrong. Not only is it the beer equivalent to off dishwater but it costs a fuckload and takes a long time to make?Locoloki wrote:

Does Loco mean Budweiser as in USA or Budweiser as in Czechoslovakia? Apparently the Czech one is pretty awesome.Ty wrote:

Also what are they saying "gives it a taste"? Budweiser doesn't have a taste and if it does it's certainly not drinkable. It's made from rice for fuck's sake!
Also I feel I should point out - beer shouldn't be aged, it's not wine. Certainly a lager like Budweiser should never be aged.
I take it you watch the show??loubot wrote:
1. The cable show Ghost Hunters, they never find a ghost (ok maybe one per season usually the last episode).
2. I get pissed off watching Ghost Hunters because they waste an hour of my time but I keep watching.
3. For what ever reason, Ghost Hunters in on my TIVO's Season Pass Manager list
Nice explanation. I've never had either beer. Thanks.Ty wrote:
You're thinking of "Budvar" and yes Budvar is very nice. There was a bitchfight between American Budweiser and Czech "Budweiser Budvar", exacerbated by their similar slogans - "The Beer of Kings" vs. "The King of Beers". It's known as "Czechvar" in Canada and the US. I don't understand the argument, they're easy enough to tell apart:
If it has a grassy smell, a smooth full taste and a hoppy finish you're drinking:
Budvar.
If it initially tastes of nothing then starts tasting more and more like watered-down industrial cleaner you're drinking:
Budweiser.
Know your beers.
