CzarChasm posted:"The crust of the bread is where all the vitamins are" I've literally never heard or seen this being posited anywhere. The crust is, of course, the best part of the bread because it's nice and crunchy but that's got nothing to do with nutrition.

You should leave the potato skins on for flavor, if there is more nutrition then that is also good.

Why are American kids so picky about their bread crust? It's delicious! Just eat the drat thing. Can't you chew or something? My nephew started eating bread crust as soon as he got his first teeth.

Crusts have a different texture. Crusts are also at the edge of the sandwich where there are generally less fillings. Actually, as an adult I still eat sandwiches crust-first so I can get them out of the way with and focus on the good sandwich in the middle.

IYKK posted:That's a myth. Not so much. Given the volume of skin versus flesh and the relative nutritive value of each, the skin IS the most nutritious. I suppose I should have said, "by volume". Besides, I could further argue, by locking in the nutrition of the flesh, it is.

My nephew started eating bread crust as soon as he got his first teeth. With modern fluffy bread the crust is much firmer than the interior. Jerry Cotton posted:I've literally never heard or seen this being posited anywhere. The crust is, of course, the best part of the bread because it's nice and crunchy but that's got nothing to do with nutrition. No part of wonderbread is crunchy. The crust has the texture of a Styrofoam cup. Ye olde european breads are a whole different story. The crust is nice, and the middle isn't so soft that you risk tearing it with peanutbutter.   But those don't fit in my toaster so fuckit.  Mmm, white and flavourless, just like mom used to make.

The worst part of that lifehack video is that he didn't put any spices on his potatoes. Not even salt! Just a dash of honey. Those must be so incredibly bland. And maybe you're not getting rid of nutrients when you peel your potatoes, but you're throwing away a lot of perfectly good potato flesh. Just wash them lightly and cut away any bad spots.

Potatoes need so much salt. Lifehack: Put salt on things before you eat them. Except if you've got high blood pressure I guess

It doesn't even have a particularly good rhythm! Also your body can handle processing salt, unless you've got a medical disease.

Fatboy Slim derail is fitting, considering that the whole idea behind life hacks is that machines should work, and people should think. Machines can do the work. There's gotta be a better way to make that reference work...
