i know it's kind of a silly question but does anyone know of a "healthier" way of doing this?
pop is just so horrible for you - can anyone think of anything else? someone told me rice will expand in the stomach. has anyone tried that?

Finding something that tastes good definitely helps. Especially when you're just starting out. One thing that I like to do sometimes is get some instant mashed potato mix. It expands ALOT in your belly if you undercook it, or don't cook it at all. I usually pour about 3 cups into a bowl, pour water over it until it gets soft and edible, then I eat it and down a pint or so of water. It expands so quickly that I can actually feel myself getting fuller. It'll swell until I feel like I'm just about ready to burst! My belly is pretty stretched out and I can hold a pretty big amount, so if this is your first time, I definitely would suggest the whole 3 cups. Maybe one cup for starters. It will expand a lot more than you expect, so be careful.

It also helps to have some seasoning. The potato taste is pretty strong, and the whole lump is really dense. You have to really want it to eat the whole thing. But I've actually had some success making it taste pretty good using garlic salt, onion powder and black pepper.
