Ketsueki Kumori That's fair. Female genital mutilation (also known as female circumcision) is equivalent to amputating most of the penis. It is very rare, and criminal, in most countries today, although there are a few holdouts (including some with a pravalent illegal practice).
Understandable. The clitoris has the same nerve endings as the foreskin. So it's clear that as a man it's easy to understand being as that's something we don't have either. But there is a difference. On the male, the entire erogenous nerve bundle is removed(because it is on the outside) while the female, even if the clit is "removed" still retains almost all of it because for her, it is mostly internal and only a small tip of it shows. An outfit called "Clitoraid" capitalizes on this and restores the clit by merely bring more of it to the surface. Unfortunately for the men, there is nothing left of the foreskin to work with.
@ OriginalPiMan The amount of skin removed from the penis results in the loss of sensation equivalent to removing most of the penis The nerves are, after all, in the skin.
lochinvar00465 I'm no expert, and you clearly feel strongly about the topic of male circumcision, but I would have thought that since circumcised men are quite capable of orgasm through penile stimulation, and mutilated women would have at least _significantly_ greater trouble experiencing an orgasm through clitoral stimulation (if it is possible at all without medical intervention), that the two procedures are not as equivalent as you suggest. I'm not suggesting male circumcision is benign (or as some still think, good), but I do think it is a step below female genital mutilation.
We don't do that anymore. May we move against male circumcision too. Iceland and Denmark are now outlawing male circumcision and I hope it's a trend that will be copied by other countries.
I’ve had type 1 diabetes since 1970. For years I ate low-sugar cereals with skim milk for breakfast. The starch got swiftly converted to blood glucose and I had high blood sugar all morning. Almost every morning. For twenty years. I was assured that this was a proper thing to do, because fat would clog my arteries... Now I usually skip breakfast and eat one low-carbohydrate meal most days. Not doing badly. Some of my doctors are horrified.
You need to find an endocrinologist that graduated med school then. Keeping your blood sugar some semblanced of controlled is going to be the main worry. Not fats, because fat phobiaa has been debunked for decades
duct, you would be horrified to learn that a lot of doctors still believe in the antequated food pyramid and recommend a diet rich in grains and low fat. I have lived in many states in the USA and they were promoting that diet SO HARD in Indiana. I was in utter disbelief and almost got into a shouting match with a nurse over how absolutely absurd and already scientifically disproven that diet was. You can't cure stupid, though. There are some younger people who were incorrectly taught by the older generations, but they can still be straightened out. A lot of the older folks, though... they are often too stubborn to change their views. In there minds: Fat makes you fat. Cholesterol causes bad cholesterol. Carb-loading is the healthiest choice. Enjoy a breakfast of toast, cereal, and a tall glass of orange juice. What? Heart disease? Diabetes? How could this have happened???
markiangooley - I’ve been listening to a lot of Dr. Robert Lustig’s presentations lately. I’d recommend looking him up, but here’s a summary: sugar is bad. Really bad. And we consume too much. It’s basically alcohol without the buzz, and a lot of its negative health effects are similar to what you see from alcoholism (fatty liver disease, dementia, obesity, diabetes, etc.). And unlike the anti-fat brigade - which has relied on (flimsy) correlation as their only form of “proof” - Dr. Lustig maps the biochemical process to support his thesis.
Throw out the skim milk (if you haven't already). In fact, throw out any "x-free" or "lower-x" foods. Take for example gluten: if there is supposed to be gluten in something and you take out the gluten, it's going to be disgusting, so you have to subsitute the gluten with something that's potentially even worse. If you can eat gluten then eat it, if you cannot then you have to avoid any gluten food entirely. All those alternative food products are just poison. So either drink whole milk or no milk at all. Either eat food with its intended levels of fat, or don't eat it at all.
I highly recommend “The Complete Guide to Fasting” by Dr Jason Fung, or even just look up some of his interviews. And recommend him to your doctors who don’t understand what you’re doing and why it works.
_Warning:_ GI can be _very_ misleading as a guide to blood sugar impact, as it only tells you how readily the sugar is absorbed and _not_ how much is in the food. GL (glycemic load) is a much more useful number; it is directly proportional to the blood sugar impact of a serving.
It's more a slop... It's a prepared ingredient mixed with a liquid, like cookies and milk, or pizza crust and cola... Soups are, 1. savory, and 2. usually made from base ingredients rather than by combining things that have already been processed, cooked, and dried... Something like a mix of honey-coated, roasted oats and nuts "cereal mix" with milk could be considered a cold porridge, however it could be debated that it's a form of "muesli", a dish or preparation with Swiss alpine origins, if I'm not mistaken... It's not a cold soup, at any rate....
+Patrick Dorion Boiled oats = Porridge (yummy, yummy) and soaked oats = Mü(e)sli (gross, especially if soaked in yogurt). "Slop" is a great word, by the way. Also, (Bircher)mü(e)sli did originate in Switzerland, but not in the Alps as far as I can tell. (The Switzerland part is definitely correct.)
I'm sure if they do an extra shitty job (possibly on purpose, given the other horrifying methods they implement) you will suffer nerve damage and decreased pleasure from it, enough to deter you from doing it as often if at all. Outside of some tribal customs, most people who are still circumcised have it done to them when they are infants. You grow up like nothing happened because you don't really know any different. Being old enough to think for yourself and having someone cut off your foreskin against your will would probably put a damper on your masturbation plans, at least for awhile. (especially during recovery)
It makes it more difficult (you need some lube or spit, that people with foreskin do not, also your sensitivity is probably somewhat dampened). Only full castration can completely stop masturbaton, but that would also stop reproduction and no totalitarian patriach wants that to happen to his own sons.
I asked a bunch of discord friends about it and with the few who were willing to discuss it, it seems when circumsiced, you can still just use the remainder of your foreskin to masturbate with no lube, but it maybe takes them a little longer than the uncircumcised dudes to get off, suggesting that, yes, sensation is partially lessened from the procedure. It was only a few dudes in the group, though, so it's a small sample size. (Not surprised guys don't want to talk about this with a bunch of half-strangers in a chatroom, haha)
I believe the tradition in the American South was "breakfast dinner and supper," but I think by now this has been replaced by the standard "breakfast lunch dinner."
I've known about this for years, and it still messes me up. Have been doing intermittent fasting, minimum 16 hours a day and usually 18-20, which precludes breakfast entirely, and it's made a huge difference.
Well, the science of health and medicine at that time is rather wonky at best (blood letting, blowing air into someone's butt-hole) so you could say he's quite the norm...
Kellog was a flake, but some of his theories (including the importance of eating lots of fibre and getting enough sleep and exercise) were ahead of their time!
Society woke up to the stupidity of female circumcision but still practices male circumcision although Iceland and Denmark are now passing laws against it. May the rest of the world follow.
That was a movie that was bad because it stayed to close to the truth. I couldn't believe any of it when I watched and was stunned when I learned it was true
As a young teen, I was eating an entire box of cereal every day and was still hungry way before lunchtime. Mom changed my breakfast, to be a cheeseburger. I wasn't hungry anymore and lost 20 pounds.
I feel highly skeptical of this comment, but from a very similar experience, I can say this did indeed work for me. I also stopped acting out in class, could focus better, and stopped begging my friends to try their fish sticks/sloppy joes/Salisbury steaks.
A bowl of cereal is incredibly unhealthy, it's all carbs, a lot of it sugar. A cheeseburger is actually pretty healthy, the only suspicious part is the bread which is mostly grain and, if you live in north America, sugar. When I switched from eating carbs to eating animal products, my health radically improved. I stopped being hungry all the time, lost 20 kilos, my anxiety went away, my sleep got better, my digestion got way better, my thoughts are clearer... I never knew, but sugar and excessive carbs (especially wheat) are absolutely monstrous.
@@bamwesty8158 I know there's a widespread belief that fast food is bad, but the reality is that beef and cheese are excellent foods. The only part of a cheeseburger that's unhealthy is the bun since it has wheat and added sugar.
@@BigSlimyBlob Lol sugar in controlled doses isn't bad especially if someone works out regularly. In fact sugar helps transport protein around the body so your muscles can be repaired.
I lost 65lbs, in 6 months, by removing soda and cereal from my diet. By the end of the year, I was down 85lbs. Morning breakfast now consists of 1/2cup plain yogurt, which I add 1/4 cup raspberries and blueberries, ass well as 1/8tsp raw honey to. Not only have I found this to be more filling, but my diabeties is now completely controlled, without medication.
^^^ Add to that. The first meal of a day should be a balance of healthy, and fun, slow cooked, eaten and not just quafed crap I'm out the door...A bit of tea, bread and jelly and marmalade etc
Gork Skoal but not everyone has the time for that, so they just get what they can get. In a fast paced society, cereal definitely has its place in the breakfast world. However I believe the issue is that people use bowls that are way too big and can hold up to 2 or 3 extra servings of cereal. Honestly, true cereal bowls should be able to contain at least 8-10 Oz of food which will relatively hold the appropriate serving amount of cereal. It’s all about portion control. I enjoy a bowl of any cereal I want in 10 Oz bowls and feel guilt free and ready to start my day.
You dont actually need any carbs. Your body is perfecty capable of making its own glucose provided you have all the actually essential nutrients like fats, proteins and minerals and vitamins.

Ugh. Kellog is the worst! Raised in America, I assumed circumcision was regularly done for sound medical reasons, but when I was pregnant with my first I actually READ some medical research into it and looked into the history. So no. An obvious NO. We don't do That Nonsense to our children. It's monstrous, that circumcision. We were a rarity in the US, but now that we're in Europe, it's a given that parents wouldn't cut off bits of your babies' genitals. American puritans really have some severe hang ups on their natural sexuality. They should take a page from Europe on how to be comfortable with themselves.
Kartoffel Pommes. "American puritans"? It was the AMA who strongly urged it for sanitary reasons (just like they did baby formula), and thereby ushered in an industry that generated billions. They haven't been circumcizing babies for free for nearly a century, have they?
god is not evil, merely a concept. people gather around concepts and perform savage and barbaric acts because other people use these concepts to control weak minded people.
I decided not to have my son circumcised as well, and my ob was really obnoxious about it. My brother and his wife are about to have a son as well, and I really hope they listened when I explained why I didn't do it to my son.
That's a real patriotic breakfast. If only we could incorporate guns, breakfast would become the nation's meal time. Brits have tea time, we need our own special meal time but better. More freedom.
"Kellogg's told women to wink at their grocer and see what they got (answer: a box of Corn Flakes)" If the aim was to avoid excitement, then well done I suppose!
"Hello miss, what can i get you?" "A really good 'breakfast' if you know what i mean *wink*" "Oh i know exactly what you mean miss" "Great! My place or yo-" "Some Corn Flakes coming right up!" "Oh..."
It's always interested me that things like cereal, cinnamon rolls, and doughnuts are culturally accepted breakfast foods while cake and other desserts essentially similar are not. xD Doughnuts are basically cake with a hole in the middle. xD It's just a kind of funny quirk that indicates (in my mind) the influence of culture on accepted practice.
Many people, myself included, don't think that there's a huge cultural difference between America and Canada, but then I remember I was watching a show where a police was eating a donut for breakfast and I thought it was hilarious because it's such a silly thing to do that I'd never seen (I was like, 9 at the time). Whenever we went out for breakfast such as at Tim Hortons, and this is still the case, we're basically only allowed a muffin, bagel, or toast, and a drink. I find it interesting looking at the few cultural differences.
Loved this episode. I live in Battle Creek and work at Post Cereal. I make Grape Nuts and Granola. The Post and Kellogg factories are a half mile apart at most.
Carlos Leon Yes! I’ve been on a low carb hi fat diet (ketogenic/paleo) for a year now, lost a ton of weight and feel much healthier, I also only eat one meal a day in the evening. A carb based diet is daft, it’s just sugar. I also discovered I’m gluten intolerant.
Not an expert, but I think it may have been about the ability. Trying to masturbate circumcised without lubricant is not pleasant, and usually comes with a callus result to sensitive areas. Maybe it was just a conspiracy/collusion to sell more oils and lotions.
Fact: drinking 2 cups of water one hour before a meal, awakens the body and the digestive system. Always, drink water between activities and when eating at home or out (always have veggies half your plate). As for breakfast... it depends on lifestyle and type of job each person has.

Hearts Stars and Horseshoes, Clovers and Blue Moons! Pots of Gold and Rainbows, and the Red Balloons! ...I still always asked for Cinnamon Toast Crunch

Breakfast is literally whatever the first thing you eat in the day is, regardless of what time you eat it. It’s not possible to skip breakfast and still eat.
TheLizardLass depending on how you define breakfast... I personally get sick if i eat breakfast and thus wait until lunch to eat, either at home or at my university eating lunch with friends, i do eat three meals a day though rather than 2 since i also eat once between lunch and dinner, something small like a sandwich or so so i more or less only change the order, eating lunch, a snack, then dinner and then nothing until lunch next day
@Audrey Kelly Except that language changes over time and in todays english breakfast means a meal you eat in the morning, period. What it USED to mean half a millenia ago literally doesn't matter, otherwise pretty much all of todays english is just plain wrong. Languages change over time and breakfast does not mean "breaking your fast" anymore, even if that is the origin of the word, deal with it.
A lesser channel would have only told their viewers about the change from less sugary cereals in the thirties, but that's why I like your channel so much. Hearing about breakfast habits in history is fascinating.
Raised on this stuff as a baby boomer, I now have diabetes. Thanks, Kellogg's, Post, and a shout-out to General Mills. I still have cereal for breakfast, but it's a modest serving of a more natural rolled oats and flax seed meal. By eating more sensibly, losing weight and getting lots of exercise, I've beaten back the diabetes to a manageable level. BTW, circumcision does not prevent masturbation. I'm sure of that.
I honestly love the 2 meal a day system. When I have the time, I like to make a chickpea omelette with bread, fruit, and salads for breakfast and some kind of stew with a grain for dinner.
It sounds like this only applies to sugary cereal and not just cereal in general. In the UK I rarely see sugary cereals; rather, it's normal to add fruit or honey to cereal to sweeten the plain taste.
Pete S. I'm excluding children's cereals since I've never browsed the children's cereals so I can comment on them. If you include children's cereals then I'm guessing there would be a lot more sugary cereals in the UK, but then I have to wonder who the target audience is supposed to be. Parents, maybe?
Pete S. Seriously? Man, I always thought crunchy nut was supposed to be a children's cereal, aha. You still have to be careful when buying "adult" cereal because some can be surprisingly high, but most (I've seen) are only a few grams of sugar per serving.
Interestingly, grape nuts, which most don't classify as a "sugary" cereal and is listed made with "whole grains" is higher on the glycemic index than table sugar... A surprising amount of non-sugary cereals are like this. :-) -Daven
I love cereal, and I ate a unhealthy amount of it when I was younger xD Now, if only gluten free cereal where more common and cheaper, I suspect cereal would still be a staple breakfast item for me =P
Don't do gluten free if you check the ingredients it's actually worse than normal cereal, just don't eat those american cereal full of sugar and you're good to go
@@Cosmiichu yeah, health-wize I'm kinda glad I had to stop eating all those chocopuffs and honeycrunch and whatnot, absolutely not a healthy breakfast. I still eat oatmeal with a banana & some berries sometimes, which I think isn't to bad as breakfast. Just to bad it's so expensive xD
2 peanut butter toasts and coffee is my breakfast of choice when I'm home. I did not eat breakfast for the longest time but I now take medications that have to be taken in the middle of breakfast and I'm sure just coffee does not qualify.
One of my Great-Grandmother's (we called her "Nanny") stories was of how bad she wanted some of the box of Grape Nuts her father had bought for her mother. She would push the kernels to a mound at one side of the bowl and dip each spoonful into the milk (this is how I eat them, as a result). Nanny would recount how she (age 9) pouted and asked her Pa why she couldn't have some. He replied that her mother needed them because she was sick. He must have believed they possessed some miraculous power against her sickness. But this was 1917 and that sickness was the Spanish Flu. It killed 'Ma' and four of Nanny's six siblings.
dzejrid It is a staple in the US. It's practically impossible to get my step-kids to eat anything else for breakfast because that's all their mom gives them. I'd be happy to make oatmeal or eggs or something, but they think it's gross.
Arie Heath ya its the raisins along with about 1/3 of your bowl of Raisin Bran being sugar. And I'm 99% sure that Raisin Bran is "partially produced with genetic engineering" as most cereals are. To check just look near the bottom of the box below the Nutrition Facts and INGREDIENTS usually in small writing.
I'm never convinced that a lot of raisins is that good for you, I always feel a bit nauseous after eating them. It's possible that raisins just aren't my thing though. Or maybe it's a bit like orange juice which I felt the same way with...and it turns out isn't great after all.
Mr Emann Raisin bran has a ton of added sugar, this is true, and the actual problem with them. Whether there are "genetically modified" ingredients in it is completely irrelevant.
Sugary cereals were around long before the 80's. Me, all my cousins, friends and everyone else ate cereal in the 60's & 70's either for breakfast or in between meals and night time. We were all normal weight and active and today we're all still doing pretty good. I don't eat cereal as much as I did in the past, but I do grab a box now & then.
Michelle L eating can make people tired so eating in the morning before you have to do a bunch of work could be counterproductive, and eating at night could make it easier to go to sleep
Mega Max Brick Builder I will literally start to feint by noon if I skip eating in the morning. How is the body supposed to work if you don't give it food? That's so counterintuitive. Eating small amounts and light foods won't bog you down and make you tired anyways. It was probably more of a cultural issue that people didn't eat until later on. The same reason we reach for cereals ad a normal breakfast despite it being basically dessert lol
The energy you get needed to work takes six to eight hours to digest from the food you eat. The ATP you are burning in the morning came from the day before.
Do you have a very active lifestyle? It sounds strange that you would "literally start to feint by noon" if you skip breakfast. I've been almost only eating later in the day after I get home from work (at around 21.00) for almost 2 years now and I don't feel tired (as long as I get enough sleep) nor do I feel hungry. It may seem scary to people who are used to eating 3 meals a day (or more) but this is the norm for me now. I still sometimes eat in the morning or afternoon, like when I'm visiting my grandmother and don't want her to worry, or if it's a weekend and I just start eating in the middle of the day out of boredom (TH-cam is so much better with food), since I don't have work to keep me occupied, but I'm never actually hungry during those times and it feels totally unnecessary.
Thugai I used to get that way too. Some people are more sensitive to low blood sugar than others. Now I do eat much besides dinner and since I'm used to it, I'm good now. But God help us all if dinner gets pushed back lol. I get dizzy and tired and mean
From the early 70's my man, maybe even the late 60's.... Saturday morning cartoons, sugared cereal with added white sugar, and all that yelllow milk....

Without even watching it... The Kellogg's brothers, & Dad & Daughter Post.... Oh and marketing! (Funny side note: Dr. Kellogg did NOT want anything to do with the Kellogg's Corn Flakes business because his brother added sugar. He was highly against sugar in food. {He was sort of a whacko lol}) Then it became an insanely profitable item. So he wanted his due, since Dr. Kellogg was so well known it was HIS name that first brought people to even try the corn flakes. He sued his brother but I can't remember the outcome of that trial...

The 80s and 90s? No, the mid-60s to the 70s had Super Sugar Crisp, which evolved to Super Golden Crisp...with a bit less sugar and more corn syrup. We also had a ton of other solid sugar items that had bits of wheat, oats, and fibre added to be legally considered "food". The 80s and 90s went from raisins to also, sometimes, adding apple, strawberry, blueberry, and a few other fruits, that were suspended in this noxious sugar paste to make the final result something similar to fruit newtons. (I still grab a box of blueberry newton bar like items, sometimes)
You do NOT need hardly any carbs. I cut out my carbs and sugar months ago and have become lean, much healthier, and feel better than I have in years. Most of my diet is fats, followed by protein. Tallow, olive oil, coconut oil, meat, eggs, butter, and salad, along with spices. It works, I guarantee it.

Great video, by the way. Keep it up. :) Tbh, I think the main thing to take away from this nutrition-wise is that diets ought to adapt to lifestyles, physiologies, and other individual needs. There are no universal solutions. Also maybe people should be taught basic biochem. Also also, in general as a species we never stop improving. I.e. the past was never better than the present. We really should reflect more on why we do things though. Blah blah blah. Won't ramble on.

duct, you would be horrified to learn that a lot of doctors still believe in the antequated food pyramid and recommend a diet rich in grains and low fat. I have lived in many states in the USA and they were promoting that diet SO HARD in Indiana. I was in utter disbelief and almost got into a shouting match with a nurse over how absolutely absurd and already scientifically disproven that diet was. You can't cure stupid, though. There are some younger people who were incorrectly taught by the older generations, but they can still be straightened out. A lot of the older folks, though... they are often too stubborn to change their views. In there minds: Fat makes you fat. Cholesterol causes bad cholesterol. Carb-loading is the healthiest choice. Enjoy a breakfast of toast, cereal, and a tall glass of orange juice. What? Heart disease? Diabetes? How could this have happened???
markiangooley - I’ve been listening to a lot of Dr. Robert Lustig’s presentations lately. I’d recommend looking him up, but here’s a summary: sugar is bad. Really bad. And we consume too much. It’s basically alcohol without the buzz, and a lot of its negative health effects are similar to what you see from alcoholism (fatty liver disease, dementia, obesity, diabetes, etc.). And unlike the anti-fat brigade - which has relied on (flimsy) correlation as their only form of “proof” - Dr. Lustig maps the biochemical process to support his thesis.
Throw out the skim milk (if you haven't already). In fact, throw out any "x-free" or "lower-x" foods. Take for example gluten: if there is supposed to be gluten in something and you take out the gluten, it's going to be disgusting, so you have to subsitute the gluten with something that's potentially even worse. If you can eat gluten then eat it, if you cannot then you have to avoid any gluten food entirely. All those alternative food products are just poison.
So either drink whole milk or no milk at all. Either eat food with its intended levels of fat, or don't eat it at all.
I highly recommend “The Complete Guide to Fasting” by Dr Jason Fung, or even just look up some of his interviews. And recommend him to your doctors who don’t understand what you’re doing and why it works.
_Warning:_ GI can be _very_ misleading as a guide to blood sugar impact, as it only tells you how readily the sugar is absorbed and _not_ how much is in the food.
GL (glycemic load) is a much more useful number; it is directly proportional to the blood sugar impact of a serving.
Like BMI, BMR, and Body Fat Percentage, I would just use all the information in concert to make a well-informed rational choice for yourself.
That was a really stupid comment, GI isn’t misleading, it’s clear cut. What your referring to on about glycemic load is portion control, it’s simple.
Rather than insults and bald statements, perhaps you could explain what is inaccurate in what I wrote here?
Still, I wonder if breakfast cereal is a cold soup or not.
jaspr1999 vsauce man
Yes
It's more a slop... It's a prepared ingredient mixed with a liquid, like cookies and milk, or pizza crust and cola... Soups are, 1. savory, and 2. usually made from base ingredients rather than by combining things that have already been processed, cooked, and dried... Something like a mix of honey-coated, roasted oats and nuts "cereal mix" with milk could be considered a cold porridge, however it could be debated that it's a form of "muesli", a dish or preparation with Swiss alpine origins, if I'm not mistaken...
It's not a cold soup, at any rate....
Patrick Dorion Interesting! You ought to have a channel with informative videos.
+Patrick Dorion Boiled oats = Porridge (yummy, yummy) and soaked oats = Mü(e)sli (gross, especially if soaked in yogurt). "Slop" is a great word, by the way. Also, (Bircher)mü(e)sli did originate in Switzerland, but not in the Alps as far as I can tell. (The Switzerland part is definitely correct.)
I'm curious what and _how much_ people in the ancient times ate in a single meal to last the whole day.
The human body developed a lot since then
@@vacolates9802 Also just habit, really. The body gets used to that kinda stuff quickly.
I can tell you that being circumcised doesn't stop masturbation...
I'm sure if they do an extra shitty job (possibly on purpose, given the other horrifying methods they implement) you will suffer nerve damage and decreased pleasure from it, enough to deter you from doing it as often if at all. Outside of some tribal customs, most people who are still circumcised have it done to them when they are infants. You grow up like nothing happened because you don't really know any different. Being old enough to think for yourself and having someone cut off your foreskin against your will would probably put a damper on your masturbation plans, at least for awhile. (especially during recovery)
It makes it more difficult (you need some lube or spit, that people with foreskin do not, also your sensitivity is probably somewhat dampened). Only full castration can completely stop masturbaton, but that would also stop reproduction and no totalitarian patriach wants that to happen to his own sons.
Luis Aldamiz: What the fuck are you on about? o_O
Rob K: how can you reformulate your fucking question so it makes som sense?
I asked a bunch of discord friends about it and with the few who were willing to discuss it, it seems when circumsiced, you can still just use the remainder of your foreskin to masturbate with no lube, but it maybe takes them a little longer than the uncircumcised dudes to get off, suggesting that, yes, sensation is partially lessened from the procedure. It was only a few dudes in the group, though, so it's a small sample size. (Not surprised guys don't want to talk about this with a bunch of half-strangers in a chatroom, haha)
"Helping to ingrain that idea"
I see what you did there.
"Lunch was breakfast and was called dinner" omfg I'm dying.
Codename Rune Tis true. Jesus didn't have the Last Dinner...
Codename Rune Here in Ireland, we still call lunch 'dinner' and our dinner 'Tea'. Go figure lol 😂
I believe the tradition in the American South was "breakfast dinner and supper," but I think by now this has been replaced by the standard "breakfast lunch dinner."
I think dinner is technically the biggest meal of the day, no matter when it is eaten. The last meal is always supper, and perhaps also dinner.
Corvus, same in Yorkshire. Lunch is dinner, and dinner is tea.
I've known about this for years, and it still messes me up. Have been doing intermittent fasting, minimum 16 hours a day and usually 18-20, which precludes breakfast entirely, and it's made a huge difference.
Kellog was bat shite crazy. "The road to wellville" is closer to the truth than people realise.
Well, the science of health and medicine at that time is rather wonky at best (blood letting, blowing air into someone's butt-hole) so you could say he's quite the norm...
Gordon Lawrence jioiij
Kellog was a flake, but some of his theories (including the importance of eating lots of fibre and getting enough sleep and exercise) were ahead of their time!
Society woke up to the stupidity of female circumcision but still practices male circumcision although Iceland and Denmark are now passing laws against it. May the rest of the world follow.
That was a movie that was bad because it stayed to close to the truth. I couldn't believe any of it when I watched and was stunned when I learned it was true
"Including electrically shocking children's genitals..." 5:53 and an advert for breakfast cereal starts playing... amazing timing.
As a young teen, I was eating an entire box of cereal every day and was still hungry way before lunchtime. Mom changed my breakfast, to be a cheeseburger. I wasn't hungry anymore and lost 20 pounds.
I feel highly skeptical of this comment, but from a very similar experience, I can say this did indeed work for me. I also stopped acting out in class, could focus better, and stopped begging my friends to try their fish sticks/sloppy joes/Salisbury steaks.
A bowl of cereal is incredibly unhealthy, it's all carbs, a lot of it sugar. A cheeseburger is actually pretty healthy, the only suspicious part is the bread which is mostly grain and, if you live in north America, sugar.
When I switched from eating carbs to eating animal products, my health radically improved. I stopped being hungry all the time, lost 20 kilos, my anxiety went away, my sleep got better, my digestion got way better, my thoughts are clearer... I never knew, but sugar and excessive carbs (especially wheat) are absolutely monstrous.
A cheese burger is healthy ahaha ok america
@@bamwesty8158 I know there's a widespread belief that fast food is bad, but the reality is that beef and cheese are excellent foods. The only part of a cheeseburger that's unhealthy is the bun since it has wheat and added sugar.
@@BigSlimyBlob Lol sugar in controlled doses isn't bad especially if someone works out regularly. In fact sugar helps transport protein around the body so your muscles can be repaired.
I lost 65lbs, in 6 months, by removing soda and cereal from my diet. By the end of the year, I was down 85lbs. Morning breakfast now consists of 1/2cup plain yogurt, which I add 1/4 cup raspberries and blueberries, ass well as 1/8tsp raw honey to.
Not only have I found this to be more filling, but my diabeties is now completely controlled, without medication.
good man, i'm proud of you. i love people who take control of their diet and aren't afraid to learn or put in effort. god bless.
Leave it to this channel to teach me about something I've wondered about (widespread circumcision for non-religious reasons) via some other topic.
I shared the hell out of this. The breakfast cereal industry was started by a bunch of absolute nutters!
^^^ Add to that. The first meal of a day should be a balance of healthy, and fun, slow cooked, eaten and not just quafed crap I'm out the door...A bit of tea, bread and jelly and marmalade etc
Gork Skoal but not everyone has the time for that, so they just get what they can get. In a fast paced society, cereal definitely has its place in the breakfast world. However I believe the issue is that people use bowls that are way too big and can hold up to 2 or 3 extra servings of cereal. Honestly, true cereal bowls should be able to contain at least 8-10 Oz of food which will relatively hold the appropriate serving amount of cereal. It’s all about portion control. I enjoy a bowl of any cereal I want in 10 Oz bowls and feel guilt free and ready to start my day.
Good point re: time. and go go go. I totally respect that.
actually, they were more like anti-nutters
@@vurpo7080 They were very much in favor of nuts.

You dont actually need any carbs. Your body is perfecty capable of making its own glucose provided you have all the actually essential nutrients like fats, proteins and minerals and vitamins.
Ill stick to eggs and bacon for breakfast thanks!
I could never be bothered to have a hot breakfast. Too much work. I usually have wheaties and toast.
And therein lies the problem
Exactly. I look and feel so much better for it too.

Ugh. Kellog is the worst! Raised in America, I assumed circumcision was regularly done for sound medical reasons, but when I was pregnant with my first I actually READ some medical research into it and looked into the history. So no. An obvious NO. We don't do That Nonsense to our children. It's monstrous, that circumcision. We were a rarity in the US, but now that we're in Europe, it's a given that parents wouldn't cut off bits of your babies' genitals. American puritans really have some severe hang ups on their natural sexuality. They should take a page from Europe on how to be comfortable with themselves.
Kartoffel Pommes. "American puritans"? It was the AMA who strongly urged it for sanitary reasons (just like they did baby formula), and thereby ushered in an industry that generated billions. They haven't been circumcizing babies for free for nearly a century, have they?
Yeah, circumcision is barbaric.
Cuckandlowt - Wow anti-intelligence and learning! Religion is ZERO reason to do anything, never mind mutilate babies you sicko.
god is not evil, merely a concept. people gather around concepts and perform savage and barbaric acts because other people use these concepts to control weak minded people.
I decided not to have my son circumcised as well, and my ob was really obnoxious about it. My brother and his wife are about to have a son as well, and I really hope they listened when I explained why I didn't do it to my son.
I didn't know this awful stuff about Kellog. Suddenly corn flakes don't taste as good anymore.
legion999 often forgotten bit of history. Adam Ruins Everything did a piece on it a couple of seasons ago.
It was the non-torturing brother that made all the big money though, if that helps
Also check out the book or movie "The Road To Wellville." Anthony Hopkins I believe played Kellogg.
Good, it's garbage anyway, and if you add or eat the sugary ones, it's poison too.

Even without sugar, cereal is carbs which is bad for you.
It's always interested me that things like cereal, cinnamon rolls, and doughnuts are culturally accepted breakfast foods while cake and other desserts essentially similar are not. xD Doughnuts are basically cake with a hole in the middle. xD It's just a kind of funny quirk that indicates (in my mind) the influence of culture on accepted practice.
Many people, myself included, don't think that there's a huge cultural difference between America and Canada, but then I remember I was watching a show where a police was eating a donut for breakfast and I thought it was hilarious because it's such a silly thing to do that I'd never seen (I was like, 9 at the time). Whenever we went out for breakfast such as at Tim Hortons, and this is still the case, we're basically only allowed a muffin, bagel, or toast, and a drink.
I find it interesting looking at the few cultural differences.
do people actually eat donuts for breakfast? (im american but when i imagine this only a cartoon cop comes to mind)

I was waiting to hear Simon say that but he never did.
I'm not circumcised, but I can't imagine it prevents masturbation.
Not an expert, but I think it may have been about the ability. Trying to masturbate circumcised without lubricant is not pleasant, and usually comes with a callus result to sensitive areas. Maybe it was just a conspiracy/collusion to sell more oils and lotions.
If you're circumcised your orgasm are less intense than if you are uncircumcised.

Breakfast is literally whatever the first thing you eat in the day is, regardless of what time you eat it. It’s not possible to skip breakfast and still eat.
TheLizardLass depending on how you define breakfast... I personally get sick if i eat breakfast and thus wait until lunch to eat, either at home or at my university eating lunch with friends, i do eat three meals a day though rather than 2 since i also eat once between lunch and dinner, something small like a sandwich or so so i more or less only change the order, eating lunch, a snack, then dinner and then nothing until lunch next day
I only eat ass
in english perhaps, but not in german which is my native language :3 here its "Frühstück" früh means early and stück is piece
@Audrey Kelly Except that language changes over time and in todays english breakfast means a meal you eat in the morning, period. What it USED to mean half a millenia ago literally doesn't matter, otherwise pretty much all of todays english is just plain wrong. Languages change over time and breakfast does not mean "breaking your fast" anymore, even if that is the origin of the word, deal with it.
A lesser channel would have only told their viewers about the change from less sugary cereals in the thirties, but that's why I like your channel so much. Hearing about breakfast habits in history is fascinating.
i usually have cereal before i go to bed
"Electricly shocking childrens genitals..." Ad for St. Judes. 😂😂
3:16 In the southern US, the midday meal is still sometimes called "dinner," as distinct from the last meal of the day, called "supper."
Raised on this stuff as a baby boomer, I now have diabetes. Thanks, Kellogg's, Post, and a shout-out to General Mills. I still have cereal for breakfast, but it's a modest serving of a more natural rolled oats and flax seed meal. By eating more sensibly, losing weight and getting lots of exercise, I've beaten back the diabetes to a manageable level. BTW, circumcision does not prevent masturbation. I'm sure of that.
I honestly love the 2 meal a day system. When I have the time, I like to make a chickpea omelette with bread, fruit, and salads for breakfast and some kind of stew with a grain for dinner.
Unfortunate ad break.
“...including electrically shocking children’s genitals-“
“A new way to take care of baby.”
It sounds like this only applies to sugary cereal and not just cereal in general. In the UK I rarely see sugary cereals; rather, it's normal to add fruit or honey to cereal to sweeten the plain taste.
Crunchy nut and coco pops ain't sweet?
Pete S. I'm excluding children's cereals since I've never browsed the children's cereals so I can comment on them. If you include children's cereals then I'm guessing there would be a lot more sugary cereals in the UK, but then I have to wonder who the target audience is supposed to be. Parents, maybe?
Crunchy Nut is marketed to adults though. But yeah, most adult cereals aren't too sweet or have raisins and stuff to add sweetness.
Pete S. Seriously? Man, I always thought crunchy nut was supposed to be a children's cereal, aha. You still have to be careful when buying "adult" cereal because some can be surprisingly high, but most (I've seen) are only a few grams of sugar per serving.
Interestingly, grape nuts, which most don't classify as a "sugary" cereal and is listed made with "whole grains" is higher on the glycemic index than table sugar... A surprising amount of non-sugary cereals are like this. :-) -Daven
So Kellogg is the reason I have no forskin and I eat cereal. Thank you, I will never look at corn flakes in the same way again..
I love cereal, and I ate a unhealthy amount of it when I was younger xD Now, if only gluten free cereal where more common and cheaper, I suspect cereal would still be a staple breakfast item for me =P
Don't do gluten free if you check the ingredients it's actually worse than normal cereal, just don't eat those american cereal full of sugar and you're good to go
Tvorog, buckwheat or oat porridge is great, and simple.
@@Cosmiichu yeah, health-wize I'm kinda glad I had to stop eating all those chocopuffs and honeycrunch and whatnot, absolutely not a healthy breakfast. I still eat oatmeal with a banana & some berries sometimes, which I think isn't to bad as breakfast. Just to bad it's so expensive xD
When cereal has more sugar than just plain sugar by itself (I don't know how that's possible) there is a problem.
After watching this video I stabbed my cereal box, does it make me a cereal killer?

One of my Great-Grandmother's (we called her "Nanny") stories was of how bad she wanted some of the box of Grape Nuts her father had bought for her mother. She would push the kernels to a mound at one side of the bowl and dip each spoonful into the milk (this is how I eat them, as a result). Nanny would recount how she (age 9) pouted and asked her Pa why she couldn't have some. He replied that her mother needed them because she was sick. He must have believed they possessed some miraculous power against her sickness. But this was 1917 and that sickness was the Spanish Flu. It killed 'Ma' and four of Nanny's six siblings.

"...a bowl of pure sugar does contain carbs..."
In the same way that "a glass of water does contain H2O", this is true.
Cereal a staple? Maybe in United States.
dzejrid It is a staple in the US. It's practically impossible to get my step-kids to eat anything else for breakfast because that's all their mom gives them. I'd be happy to make oatmeal or eggs or something, but they think it's gross.

That's why I usually eat Raisin Bran if I'm eating cereal. The raisins provide the perfect amount of sweetness.
Raisin Bran has 10 grams of sugar per 35 gram serve.
Has to be the name brand though; the only cereal that I can't eat the cheap version of.
Arie Heath ya its the raisins along with about 1/3 of your bowl of Raisin Bran being sugar. And I'm 99% sure that Raisin Bran is "partially produced with genetic engineering" as most cereals are. To check just look near the bottom of the box below the Nutrition Facts and INGREDIENTS usually in small writing.
I'm never convinced that a lot of raisins is that good for you, I always feel a bit nauseous after eating them.
It's possible that raisins just aren't my thing though.
Or maybe it's a bit like orange juice which I felt the same way with...and it turns out isn't great after all.
Mr Emann Raisin bran has a ton of added sugar, this is true, and the actual problem with them. Whether there are "genetically modified" ingredients in it is completely irrelevant.

Sugary cereals were around long before the 80's. Me, all my cousins, friends and everyone else ate cereal in the 60's & 70's either for breakfast or in between meals and night time. We were all normal weight and active and today we're all still doing pretty good. I don't eat cereal as much as I did in the past, but I do grab a box now & then.
You forgot about 2nd breakfast. Then lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, and supper. lol.
Why do people eat more at night when they do nothing but less in the day when they do more?
Michelle L eating can make people tired so eating in the morning before you have to do a bunch of work could be counterproductive, and eating at night could make it easier to go to sleep
Mega Max Brick Builder I will literally start to feint by noon if I skip eating in the morning. How is the body supposed to work if you don't give it food? That's so counterintuitive.
Eating small amounts and light foods won't bog you down and make you tired anyways. It was probably more of a cultural issue that people didn't eat until later on.
The same reason we reach for cereals ad a normal breakfast despite it being basically dessert lol
The energy you get needed to work takes six to eight hours to digest from the food you eat. The ATP you are burning in the morning came from the day before.
Do you have a very active lifestyle? It sounds strange that you would "literally start to feint by noon" if you skip breakfast. I've been almost only eating later in the day after I get home from work (at around 21.00) for almost 2 years now and I don't feel tired (as long as I get enough sleep) nor do I feel hungry. It may seem scary to people who are used to eating 3 meals a day (or more) but this is the norm for me now. I still sometimes eat in the morning or afternoon, like when I'm visiting my grandmother and don't want her to worry, or if it's a weekend and I just start eating in the middle of the day out of boredom (TH-cam is so much better with food), since I don't have work to keep me occupied, but I'm never actually hungry during those times and it feels totally unnecessary.
Thugai I used to get that way too. Some people are more sensitive to low blood sugar than others. Now I do eat much besides dinner and since I'm used to it, I'm good now. But God help us all if dinner gets pushed back lol. I get dizzy and tired and mean

The 80s and 90s? No, the mid-60s to the 70s had Super Sugar Crisp, which evolved to Super Golden Crisp...with a bit less sugar and more corn syrup. We also had a ton of other solid sugar items that had bits of wheat, oats, and fibre added to be legally considered "food". The 80s and 90s went from raisins to also, sometimes, adding apple, strawberry, blueberry, and a few other fruits, that were suspended in this noxious sugar paste to make the final result something similar to fruit newtons. (I still grab a box of blueberry newton bar like items, sometimes)
Love this channel, so informative, the host has a good charisma.
You do NOT need hardly any carbs. I cut out my carbs and sugar months ago and have become lean, much healthier, and feel better than I have in years. Most of my diet is fats, followed by protein. Tallow, olive oil, coconut oil, meat, eggs, butter, and salad, along with spices. It works, I guarantee it.
If I feed corn flakes to a chicken, will the chicken still taste like chicken?
Yes it will. Also if you give beer to a chicken, it will get drunk.
why shouldn't it?
Ok, ok, now for the real question: Does Toucan Sam taste like chicken?
Don't give alcohol to your animals though. They're so tiny that it's very easy for them to overdose and die. A drunk chicken sounds hilarious and dangerous tho lol
J Girl no true chicken has been sober for over 20 mins
I got a fuckin gripe....
Sometime this year or last, they changed Honeycomb. Originally I thought maybe I just had a bad batch, went and got a new box with completely different dates and got the same shitty garbage in my bowl. What used to be one of my top 5 cereals, is just a fuckin sham. You're not fooling anyone Post, get fucked.
...how did we end up talking about masturbation in a vid about breakfast?
I already had that awkward conversation along time ago...
I feel like this whole video was Simon getting onto us for our poor, exercise lacking lifestyles.
Great video, by the way. Keep it up. :)
Tbh, I think the main thing to take away from this nutrition-wise is that diets ought to adapt to lifestyles, physiologies, and other individual needs. There are no universal solutions.
Also maybe people should be taught basic biochem.
Also also, in general as a species we never stop improving. I.e. the past was never better than the present. We really should reflect more on why we do things though.
Blah blah blah. Won't ramble on.
Just watching this gave me diabetes.
One meal a day here. Like my European ancestors.
