I haven't seen one so far.

So what's everyone eating/drinking these days? Nothing is too extravagant or shameful. Ate four packs of instant noodles with half a tub of butter? No one will judge you! (at least not out loud)

I have no clue what I'm doing! If you want to watch me fumble through all my retro projects, you can watch here: https://www.youtube.com/user/MrDavejustdave

Touchy subject I think. What is the weight and girth of the average VOGONSer?

Is this too much voodoo?

At first I thought this was another Muz thread.

“I ate a hamburger today. Is that bad?”

Anyway, today so far I have eaten cold cereal and a grapefruit for breakfast, and an Arby’s sandwich for lunch.

I've started OMAD last week. So far so good 😀 Not really overweight by any standard but want to test the benefits.

Requests are also possible... /msg kixs

Milliways, the Restaurant at the End of the Universe. 🤣

There's a thread like this but I think I haven't seen it in some years.

mod post of approval!

moco loco tonight, crockpot beef stew tomorrow for the incoming snow storm. 😀

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

Weekends: beer & pizza & snacks. Rest of the week: fish, chicken, noodles. A balanced diet.

I don't drink alcohol at all so most of the time I drink water.

For food though, usually whatever leftover thermal paste I can find.

the problem is prices of the japanese stuff is getting out of hand, used to be quite affordable at Costco.

Does anyone cook with Sous Vide? Plan to make some tomahawk ribeyes soon. Sous Vide immersion cook, and then sear on cast iron.

Been on keto for a while and I'm tired of eating all this meat!

take the number of anything with a CPU you own and divide by 1

21? Is that my weight or girth, or both?

Just gobbling up simple self-cooked coarse-grained thermal paste consisting of potatoes, carrots, cabbage and sliced chicken meat 😀

I'm doing intermittent fasting, so I'm not allowed to eat my prosciutto and arugola sandwich until 11:30 or so. Which is when I'll probably still be in a meeting 😒

I don't technically have to fast, since I only weigh something like 74 kg at 177 cm (5'10) but I it helps to "give my stomach a break".

My wife really likes the Ottolenghi Simple cookbook right now, so we are cooking a lot of middle eastern/mediterranean stuff, so roasted veg with spicy sauces and things like that.

I can't wait for the weather to improve so I can fire up the grill though.

Do you know what it is?

Gulai tambusu.

It is called gulai tambusu, which is beef intestines soaked in rich, spicy and succulent coconut milk sauce, usually eaten with steamed rice or rice dumpling. Easily my most favorite food ever. Alas, the family doctor told me to stop eating it, my mother told me to stop eating it, and now my wife tells me to stop eating it. Really, what is this thing called 'cholesterol' they keep warning me about? Preposterous, I say!

Never thought this thread would be that long, but now, for something different.....

That sounds amazing. Not sold on the intestines though. Unless you mean as a sausage casing, that's great!

I love sausage. Not only am I going to kill you, but I'm going to grind you up and stuff you down your own rectum and eat you that way.

god, now i'm hungry for sausage...

I had a cheeseburger for lunch and now I think I will make some ravioli, the good "three cheese" kind you buy in a package.
