AppId is over the quota

There are loads of things you don't want your growing teen to eat too much of. You know, like junk food, chocolate, that sorta stuff. However, what if I were to tell you that there's one food you should be encouraging your teenage daughter to indulge in at least twice a week? One that could actually stave off breast disease? Ready for the magical food: peanut butter.
A recent study published in the Breast Cancer Research and Treatment journal reveals that pre-teens and teens who eat peanut butter twice a week have a 39 percent lower risk of developing breast disease, or benign breast disease. And get this: the effect seemed especially strong among girls who had some history of breast cancer in their family.
Time to grab some jelly, two pieces of whole wheat bread, and make her a sandwich.
Sure, we hear things like this all the time, telling us what we should and shouldn't eat. One second, someone's telling us that celery has some magical power to make your skin appear shiny (it doesn't, that I know of), and the next we're wondering what watermelon juice can do for our hair. As hard as it is to take the constant stream of "scientific" information seriously, studies like this one make me personally want to believe that these super foods do exist.
I mean, come on: if eating an extra peanut butter and jelly sandwich or snacking on some apples and peanut butter every once in a while could help a growing girl avoid breast disease, then why not try it, right? Plus, the delicious stuff is packed with healthy saturated fats that are much better than the junk you'll find in all those candy bars.
What do you think about this?

There's just something about a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It's simple, delicious, and comforting. As amazing as the lunchbox staple is, however, these PB&J cookies are even better.
Is it me, or is there suddenly a lot of creative, scrumptious-looking ice cream sandwiches everywhere? Just last week or so, we spotted the strawberry 
Hello everyone, I'm about to share with you an incredibly gross story. I'm warning you upfront, just so you're prepared. All right? Here goes. A man named Joel Woloshuk bought himself a focaccia sandwich at an airport and was just about to dig in when he noticed something curious: The parmesean was moving. "I'm looking at what I thought was parmesan, right? And the parmesan began to move," Woloshuk said. (Kind of gives new meaning to Who Moved My Cheese, right?) This was a troubling development, so he bravely decided to investigate. After some poking and prodding, he discovered what is perhaps one of the worst things you can ever find in your food.
