You should never cut it up into huge fuckoff slices like that though that is just asking for trouble. Seitan is bested when cooked as sliced up bite size pieces, preferably with some sort of sauce allowed to turn into a glaze (BBQ sauce and teriyaki are the goto ones here). And I would never pretend it is something that should be photographed.

Why pour the cheese on the burger when you can have it explode all over the place and scald you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-cr9cLJZ3s

Ideally it doesn't have much liquid left beyond enough to over the bread or dumplings in (if you're using them) when they go in last. It absolutely looks like poo poo but is worth eating.

More than half a gram of sodium, 350 calories, and more than 14 grams of carbs in each "roll." Three regular spring rolls prepared the same way would have less salt and fewer carbs and calories Did Weight Watchers ever make sense? It always seemed needlessly complicated and not much better for you, if at all.

If nothing else this stuff really makes me wish I could get in a time machine and go to a supermarket in 1960 Wisconsin or whatever, just to see what a wasteland it is. It might be the single biggest piece of culture shock, more so than lack of internet and casual dress and so on. Aisles and aisles of white bread, tomato paste, corn oil, and "spices" (= salt, pepper) E: and diced pimento, always with the fuckin diced pimento ONE TEASPOON

The city I used to live in apparently had a substantial enough Filipino population that, if you looked hard enough in the darkest recesses of the frozen section, even the big chain supermarkets carried cheese flavored ice cream. Anyone ever try it? I think I might have if the packaging wasn't so AFP. Looking at pics of the homemade deal now, the idea of a queso ice cream might be good. But the stuff at Food Lion was safety yellow, like Cheez-whiz color, and that was def a turn-off. Could also be because they kept it next to the frozen tubs of pig blood. On the food fad tip, the co-op I work at carries Paleo magazine. I was just flipping thru an issue this morning, and what a load of crap. Yeah, I'm sure our Neanderthal ancestors were whipping up lemon shortbread with a blueberry cream sauce JacquelineDempsey has a new favorite as of 16:51 on Jul 21, 2017 |

Cheese ice cream tastes about like it looks, honestly. I would describe it as tasting like a frozen sweet cream/american cheese frothy sherbet? It has a distinct saltiness to it that's a bit off-putting, but only because it's so familiar as a warm food. I wouldn't eat it again, but I didn't wanna die from it either. I say this as a person that kinda likes fried tarantulas so take that as you will. fizzymercury has a new favorite as of 17:12 on Jul 21, 2017 |

It works fine. It is probably more complicated than it needs to be, but there is a psychological basis to some people doing better when they have printed goals and math to do. It is not the solution for everyone and it isn't necessarily "healthy" since you could theoretically eat nothing but Cheetos or whatever, but it is a good way for busy and/or intimidated people to begin weight loss and start learning healthier habits like weighing food and checking serving sizes and whatnot. Anyone with the interest and determination could do just as well, but it's not bad.

These services tend to be traps for many people though, especially ones with their own brand of packaged foods. By eating what the program tells you, it keeps you on the program, because you don't really learn WHY you're eating what you're eating. A majority of people who lose weight on diet programs like that gain it back after they stop the program. Of course, this isn't set in stone. There are people who it helps, for sure. But you have to remember they are for profit programs, and they want you to stay on them forever.

Well, if it helps, it helps, but I can definitely see the marketing/trap angle. The underlying concept (after doing some reading about how it works) looks good on paper, but I can't help but think that once you've built the habits that help you make good food choices, you don't really need the branding and exclusive Weight WatchersTM products. It seems like most people who whine that they can't lose weight haven't started with the most obvious and most important step: take a second to read the label. I was guilty of not reading labels all that much until recently, when health problems forced me to keep close track of my fluid, sodium, sugar, and non-fiber carbohydrate intake. Next time you're at the supermarket, go down the TV dinner/pizza/ready-made heat-and-eat meals aisles and check the labels on some single-serving products. Some of that stuff has more than 125% of your DV of sodium in a single serving. Eating that much salt in a single sitting would wreck my poo poo, but I can't imagine it being good for even someone with no health issues.

What's better, losing 30 pounds and looking bluh, or losing 5 and looking great? eh its all about losing weight in targeted areas i suppose, a girl i know eats a regimented diet and exercise plan by nutritionists and experts and pays a ton for it, makes it all herself and weighs her own food, works out 5-6 days a week in a really well rounded weights and cardio programs (none of that crossfit stuff) she can bench like 5 of me and cant get her weight at all to where she wants it. Then you have weird me, who has to do like 3k calories a day just to overblow my metabolism and if im actually working out or something i need way more so i can put a pound on, its kinda different for some folks i think.

Sandwich Anarchist posted:These services tend to be traps for many people though, especially ones with their own brand of packaged foods. Totally agreed about most but this is where WW specifically is different because you eat whatever and it does get you in the habit of checking labels and weighing and portioning real food. The main downside is that it largely ignores micronutrients so while it's helpful for weight loss, it is neutral (and therefore potentially harmful by apathy) on positive nutrition. It's a darn good way for a lot of fats to get started though.
