Ask Jorge Cruise #3: What is the best food to eat to lose weight?
"Health coach" Jorge says that the best foods to lose weight are fats and proteins in yet another regime that advocates low-carb diets. Good examples of proteins include chicken, eggs, fish, and cheese and should be the size of your palm, he says, while carbs should be limited to a cup of rice and two slices of bread. Meanwhile, sugar is the energy, he adds.

How to make sushi
Don't be fooled by the pretty little picture of perfectly turned-out sushi on the video still shot. If you're looking for a serious instructional video on how to make sushi, you're out of luck. Instead, while one hand operates the camera, the other clumsily assembles what they call ‘sushi' by pouring out the bags of uncooked rice, vegetables, and a whole raw fish onto sheets of nori. The absurdity was still able to draw nearly 222,000 views.
