What i like about CNA is they are making quality episodes like this..

[@colintanmh]

To be clear, only the stuff that Steven is involved with is interesting, The other hosts are brain numbingly boring.

[@thinkingmind5377]

@@colintanmh yeah i agree his works are worth watching for..

[@tand9854]

Only with Steve Chia. The rest try to imitate or are a cringe to watch 😂

[@tand9854]

Steve Chia IS talking point. Without Steve, there is no talking point

[@Jumper4ever93]

and brain washing you in midway. yeah, right

[@julesgoh]

I’m so happy that Steve finally has a Talking Point topic where he can enjoy his food, instead of “suffering” with diets and bingeing experiments 😊

[@Steven.Chia.Singapore]

yeah...this episode was definitely more enjoyable! 😜

[@julesgoh]

@@Steven.Chia.Singapore Always lovely to hear back from the man himself ☺️ thank u!

[@BGKrookie]

I'm a simple man. I see Steven on the thumbnail, I know he's eating.

[@koon2038]

Thank you CNA, Steven deserves this episode

[@zendude123]

Low fat, low sugar and low calorie? Remove the cream and just eat the ice 😂

[@philwade4448]

Low fat more calories

[@Rihardololz]

Funny how the demonize fat while guzzling whole tub of non-fat ice cream.

[@adelinegoh9033]

Very informative and useful

[@r-cdmx]

The entire category of desserts, pastries and sweets should be considered simply as delicious pleasurables and left alone.

[@Hope12Grace90]

Yessss I'm not eating desserts to be healthy

[@jemchan]

I love talking point sm

[@dooms8870]

I dont know why but i love watching steve so much lol

[@mayaw7148]

love this

[@lowify1]

I think the next topic should be "sugar and fat debunked" and reference this episode. I still think the sugar should be highlighted stronger than fat content.

[@tarupyon]

Can you do an episode about plant-based meat which is trending now? What benefits are there to switch to non-meat options when they're way more expensive than real meat 🤔

[@Remomba]

All meats have IGF-1 which you don't want too much of.. eggs has the highest... You prolly need to go for the free ranch ones

[@Jumper4ever93]

none

[@Remomba]

@@alanchung6843 yeah plant based meat is nonsense

[@darkjabz]

the only show worth watching by local media

[@ohmah1843]

Good contents but lousy camera quality. Do consider export in 4K in future.

[@Kalamolng]

As someone who tried doing homemade ice cream. I can tell you if u want it to taste u will need alot of sugar. The fat and milk blunts the taste of any sugar on it.

[@Jumper4ever93]

you did smth wrong. There is no need in much sugar/honey. Raw cream is sweet by itsel, raw eggs add flavor and texture. No milk in it.

[@powerisme7551]

Please do one on muffins

[@iamthye]

Also, if you wish to try the Chocolate Kale ice cream featured in the video, they are called Mrs Plumps! ❤

[@chippychip2153]

can do a topic on energy drink

[@simonialei9020]

Ice cream is too expensive for me. Cant afford it, so don't even need to think about all these labels and numbers. 😅 Interesting episode though.👍

[@lostgamer6021]

Just eat in moderation. All these "healthier" choices are just bullcrap.

[@jonnieinbangkok]

Exactly.

[@onengkusumah2905]

ikr

[@johcx1994]

I thank Steven for this episode. This is the same argument on the healthy sugar labels (A,B,C,D by HPB). Its give and take. With food companies experiementing here and there, it is hard to give an overall rating on the total nutritional value (more than just fat, sugar content).

[@paolosanchez]

Funnily enough I just went to MOIC and indulged last week 😂

[@thetravellingbloke2992]

Bump into him filming ice cream at Mrs plump

[@arcencielc2065]

What next we should ask Steven to eat?

[@AdrianBobeica]

Protein bars

[@Remomba]

Chicken

[@winstonliew1965]

Is fat , sugar and calorie such a big problem? They're just a bunch of numbers to confuse people. Ice creams is a dessert, so it is created to taste heavenly and must be enjoyed in moderation (maybe eat ice cream once a week and be sensible not to eat the whole or even half a tub of ice cream at one go). I'm more concerned about the other ingredients in that tub of ice cream, which are really the more problematic issues. Anyhow read the ingredients list and tell me its not a chemical concoction in there!!

[@krishxgaming7421]

woahhhh

[@edmundtan8506]

Can replace sugar with salt?

[@Remomba]

Salt will causes brain hemorrhage in the long run

[@Rika101OfficialYT]

normal or "guilt free" one, same thing is still in them, cream, sugar, etc...so at the end of the day, moderation is still key. as with all "junk" foods, eat ice cream responsibly.

[@shrimpsquid]

My personal view : want eat ice-cream 🍦 , don't bother too much ! JuZ moderation eating them . After all , ice-cream suppose to de-stress n why wasting time calculating calories ?!

[@krollpeter]

Since diabetes is the problem for me, I chose the one with lesser sugar and more lactose.

[@Remomba]

Eat Gbombs to heal your diabetes. Sugar also increase the speed people get demented

[@krischen7470]

Lactose is also sugar. It may not spike your blood glucose as high as the one with more added sugar, but it's still not good for you, especially diabetics.

[@krollpeter]

@@krischen7470 That is so. What I meant is I chose the one with more milk = more lactose over the one with higher added sugar.

[@Remomba]

@@krollpeter replace regular milk with almond milk.. or other nut based milk

No such things as healthier, there is always a need to compensate back such as lower fat then maybe higher sugar etc. Everything lower, better just don't eat easier 😂😂😂 confirm healthy.

To boil it down, eat with moderation.

Hi, as a vegan, I just wanted to highlight that foods labelled "vegan" aren't to be healthier as the vegan ice cream has been described as in this episode. Vegan alternatives are mainly for vegans to enjoy and not harm cows.

so you harm other humans and yourself
