Of course it's possible to be healthy with such foods but eatin loads of it(with little or no exercise) is just plain stupid and that's why I am no longer a GI-"fantatic" as I was before. Not that I was eatin crap like that before but I do watch my calories more now..

You should be more upset with the people that market this type of misinforamtion rather than the GI concept. THe nutrition and supplement industry is full of cpmanies exploiting a single sentence in one study performed on mice to market their products. :)
I don't even think there needs to be much of a debate. Since the beginning of this thread the majority of people understand that GI is a guide. The problem is when we take that concept and state its irrelevant which simply isn't true.
