I don't know. I'll have to ask 'the researchers.' Whoever they are. I heard it on the radio this morning.

I remember in HS reading you can actually lose weight chewing celery. I like celery, but it'd be way better if you could lose weight chewing, say, beef jerky.

Anyway, I'll trade you what's behind curtain number 1 in my head for what's behind door number 3 in your head.

I saw on the internet that if your beer is cold enough, you can lose weight drinking beer because it lowers your body temperature and the calories get burned heating you back up again. But then I later saw that the guys that did the math were counting a food calorie as 1 real calorie, when really, a food calorie is 1000 real calories. I can understand their confusion, but I bet that really took the wind out of their sails when it was explained to them.
