my favourite canadian protein powder is profi
I do that, 3 fried eggs, and a costco greek yogurt (my favourite canadian brand of that is skotidakis) every day on top of what I normally eat, and each of those is like 20g each, so I wind up getting at least ~100g a day even if I don’t wind up having much meat
I’m 5’10" and that all is a prerequisite for me to stay above ~165lbs
Thank you for the tips. I appreciate being remembered as a Canadian. I am going to see if I can hitch my wagon to a friend with a Costco membership and a car to get bulk stuff that keeps. I’ve also started adding in Pea Protein powder as it was half the cost of whey protein powder at Bulk Barn.
ah sorry
pea protein is good but it also needs some grain protein to get all the amino acids
It’s okay, you went out of your way to answer my question effectively. I appreciate it. Now I just need to make sure I am getting enough fruits and veggies and fibre.
Then let me also say that frozen fruits and vegetables are a) generally cheaper than fresh and b) do not spoil so you can get bulk savings without worrying about processing them in a manner that will avoid them going rotten. Frozen fruits can go into a blender and make a smoothie, and frozen vegetables can be easily heated up and prepared in whatever manner you want.
because of the shortening thread, gonna give you the deets for shortening breaf
1 part sugar
2 parts shortening or other fat (butter)
3 parts flour
Mix em up good and press it in a skillet. Bake ar 300F or 150C till it’s golden brown delicious
if I dont have a cast iron what works
If you got a loaf pan or a square brownie pan it should work. Ypu just need something with walls because it will just kind of melt on a sheet pan. You just need it to be a quarter to half inch edge to edge
edit, I like to use a mix of half self rising flour and half masa harina with a dash o vanilla and the zest of an orange.
I’ve been cooking like a dummy.
My favorite meal atm is what I call rice sludge.
It’s just cooked rice with raw eggs mixed in. I just throw them in the rice cooker, mix everything in the rice cooker and then eat out of the rice cooker. I’ve been steadily increasing the amount of eggs and decreasing the amount of rice. It is not tamago kake gohan anymore. It transcended or descended into sludge territory. Then again I’ve never been to Japan so I don’t really know what happens in Japanese kitchens.
Oh yeah, I also put soy and pepper sauce on it. Sometimes I add butter. I predict that this will either make me die from a heart attack or cure my bodily horrors.
Edit: Et voila:
i still think every recipe that requires more than three steps or five ingredients is sus so i am happy to announce my new favorite meal. i only eat one meal a day. it is:
rice + ground beef + egg (which okay that’s almost exactly what i have been eating all along, oh well).
here’s how it’s done:
i also have some cut up tomatoes on the side
edit: ok fair that’s four steps
this comes at around 1800kcal if my math is mathing (800kcal beef don’t get low fat shit, 400kcal basmati or jasmin don’t get the brown rice or parboiled shit, 200kcal eggs get the organic or pastured ones, 200kcal butter get that kerrygold)
edit: my math indeed wasn’t mathing
oh and i drink water with lemon juice throughout the day
how’s your shits?
I am begging you to eat something green every day
so u want me to shit talk huh?
to be fair i dunno if all these carnivore or primal diet advocates are larping when they self-report or quote that study in which eliminating (all!) fiber cured (all!) digestive issues but my experience seems to be similar so far: fiber is a scam
i love not having to shit every day. i remember my vegan shits being not very pleasant at all in comparison. i don’t even need to wipe now. (but dw i still do.) it’s a very hard and big poop 
but it is lubricated enough to not make my ass bleed 
. i also love not having to fart. and i do drink a kefir from time to time. those are supposed to be good for my butt right?
though you guys are a bit dramatic, both white rice (even has resistant starch when cooled) and fruits (this is a fruit: 
) do contain fiber
but yeah i’ll report back when i get a camera up my ass in a few years
i’m not sure if i’ll stick with this but i have for a couple weeks now and it makes it incredibly easy for me to eat in the morning and not eat anything else throughout the day, which i’ve never been able to do before consistently. not digesting at night is what i always wanted, it gives me the best sleep. and i don’t even crave ice cream anymore! or pizza. or cake. and if i would crave that stuff, i can just drink a glass of milk or eat a piece of cheese, or a banana with butter. i feel like i discovered a cheat code for effortless lazy cooking a sustainable diet. or a shortcut to ass cancer, dunno yet 
the Hamburger Helper has entered the chat room
they call me diver… diver ticulitus
I’m not even thinking of fiber, more like the vitamins and minerals you’re missing
the carnivores told me that the meat of ruminant animals has all the nutrients you need. which is something i want to believe in simply because i’m sick of pretending to like green stuff. at the ripe age of 40 something i enter toddler phase again and i totally relate: vegetables are a scam too
i think you are a bit dramatic again though, it’s not like i’m just eating cooked muscle meat. i do wanna try raw meat and raw butter and raw milk at some point, but i’m not that far gone yet. maybe when i’ve cleaned out the fridge of all the discounted food i hoarded
i’m a simple man (or bug). i also realized the freezer doesn’t close properly anymore because TOO MUCH BEEF
You come kind of close if you like, eat the organs and make bone broth and etc - basically eating the whole literal animal. But even that I’m not sure is quite as good as adding in a few veggies. And ground beef alone is not anywhere near.
yeah, well… that kind of general wisdom is for the wise, which i am not. i’m a dummy and this is cooking for dummies. don’t take medical advice from a bug. i get all my info from youtube “doctors”
bone broth seems overrated. way too much work for some leached minerals. and organs can be too much. like, vitamin a and copper can probably be toxic if you get too much. (i have figured out how to eat raw liver btw. by coating it in soy sauce and lime juice and leaving it in the fridge over night, it actually becomes somewhat edible. depending on how thick and chewy the cuts are. i’m still not a big fan though)
i used to use cronometer to track my nutrients at some point but after reading about anti nutrients i don’t believe in it anymore. maybe RDAs are a scam too. nutrition labels on veggies sure seem overblown to me now
did u know? antoxidants in plants aren’t even antioxidants in humans, they are pro oxidants. so another scam. maybe. well, i guess they trigger an anti inflammatory response by causing inflammation. still seems a bit sus to me
and muscle meat even has omega 3 and vitamin c. who knew that? i didn’t. but i know that it’s probably destroyed by cooking. which is why the tomatoes and lemon juice will save me from scurvy. hopefully
i just farted 
i blame the tomatoes
