I love everything on this list & are part of my daily food intake. I add cinnamon to my coffee every morning, I have yogurt every day usually w/ berries. Swiss cheese, yummm! Love it on sirloin burgers, sandwiches, by itself. Any citrus I love! Almonds & soy beans, yummy too! Now the only thing I need to add to my diet is sweet potatoes. When I was kid my mom used to bake them & we'd have them hot , mashed w/ cinnamon, a lil honey, & milk. Pretty much like a cream of wheat. Gawd I miss having that.

I see these articles all the time touting this food burns fat or that food melts fat away. While these foods are usually nutrient rich, the only food that makes fat go away is less food. If you ate a pound of almonds every day along with a pound of sweet potatoes laden with swiss cheese, I doubt you would lose weight. With food it's really all about quantity (calories) taken versus quantity burned.

I agree w/ your assessment. The notion of consuming almonds & sweet potatoes should be in moderation.
