John Tierney chews the fat

Tierney is a contrarian
science columnist. I like that since most scientists
are sheep. Fact is, no one can keep up with
everything in every specialty so most people,
including scientists and doctors, rely on what
"experts" in other sub-fields say. One expert speaks,
thousands follow and pretty soon you have a
"scientific consensus" based on the flimsiest of
foundations.
Nutritionists are the absolute worst. "Baaaaa!" You have to drink eat glasses of water a day. Don't eat eggs. And what could be more obvious than the obvious: Fat makes you fat. Or does it?
