No. It is fattening (unless you get the reduced salt and sodium kind). Plus, I don't care much for it.
They say peanut butter is fattening, too. But I eat it for lunch 3-4 times a week and haven't gained a pound. I still tip the scales at around 135 lbs (62 kg). Back to 5000 channels.... If you tried channel surfing that many, you could waste an entire hour and not make it back around--a couch potato's fantasy!
No way, it may be the only Western country not to allow nudity on TV. It's definitely not allowed in too many or any Middle Eastern/Asian countries where you have Islam as the main religion. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
