  • What have you cooked recently

    Quote from Sentura

    Fructose is awful, so no, there is nothing great about "natural" sugars in fruit. It's just that historically, fructose levels were low. And yes, we have altered fruit, by selectively breeding fruits highest in fructose generation after generation. It's kind of like why all tomatoes you buy from a store nowadays tend to be so bland and flavorless, we've bred only the nice red shiny ones, which tend to be sort of bland and flavorless compared to "uglier" tomatoes. This is one of the reasons apples taste like candy nowadays, once upon a time you would take an apple off a tree and it would have fructose in it and therefore signal to your brain that this plant was most likely safe to eat, but it wasn't the arbitrarily high levels of fructose in modern apple crops. Modern fruit takes advantage of our brains' evolutionary reward system which is designed to respond to foods that are likely to keep us alive, fruits were historically some of the safest and least toxic food stuffs for early humans, but now we've fucked that all up by boosting sugars....But you're forgetting that we've done the same for animal products as well. Animals have since the 70s been fed food that would increase growth for slaughter. We're only now figuring out that maybe feeding them toxic stuff also rubs off on the end consumer (see: cancer). By contrast there was this one lady who only ate fruit and veggie for like 50 years and apparently she outlived everybody. I'm not one to judge whether or not there is something to it, but we definitely have to go out from the perspective that everything we eat and do is bad for us. Even the oxygen in the air we breathe slowly oxidates (i.e. sets on fire) our internal systems and skin - which also one of the main reasons for process of physical ageing.Pick your poison - you might as well, you're not getting out of this alive.I agree which is why I buy grass fed shit. I don't think it's unhealthy or neurotic to avoid most fruit because most of its junky. Yes I'd eat all that shit if I lived on a farm in Italy, but I'd also probably binge on awesome wine too and cancel out all the healthy living. Bottom line to this epic tangent is Only a few great fruits, avocados ftw

    You do understand the difference between natural sugar and processed sugar, right? Reading what you wrote I don't think you are too sure. And no one has changed fruit, lol. Unless I haven't noticed america secretly injecting burgers into their bananas or something.

    Shieeett bro, call da feds, dey meszin wit da froot!

    THIS !guys, pliz don't be a NAZI diet fascist. You need to balance you diet well. THERE is no bad calories (how you define a "bad callorie"?), you can use term EMPTY cal's (it's like proteins, or carbs, or fats without minerals - which is hard to find LOL). If you are saying that what I've posted above is crazy amount of carbs - for some might be, for me it' was just fine

    Every day I talk to people about food, most people ask me how to loose fat. Most people have no clue how it works. There are 3 types of ppl:

    1. eating everything they want, not minding the amount they eat (with age they will mostlikely get more fat)

    2. fucking nazi diet PRO EXPERTS (who don't know shit how to ballance your diet) and eat only chicen with brocoli cause everything else will make you fat (they will probable get in shape, but will have bad relations with food, and can't controll gaining or loosing weight well)

    3. people like me, who count everyday intake, eat what they want in VERY careful amounts, (Thriks said that, he started controling his calories intake, and he was amaized !)

    Look how many other people have bad relations with food, how MUCH food they see as bad for you (as Fmpone said about fruits (!), and Dux about chocolate bar). Most of people have no idea how to eat to be happy and loose or gain weight.

    Right now i'm bulking, but starting this mondey i will cut for about 12 weeks, and i will post my picture here after I'm like 7-8%BF and I will do that eating what i want with right amounts.

    As for that friuts and chocolate Hardcore picture

    in my diet I have 30-40g of fiber, loads of witamins and minerals, righ amount of carbs/fats and proteins - this is what makes a healthy diet guys !

    Eating a lot of stuff is good, but fruit is definitely bullshit.

    The problem with fruit is we have changed fruit. Supermarkets have over time increased the sweetness to crazy levels. Apples will not keep a doctor away, they will rot your teeth with simple sugars no different than a gummi bear but a fuck ton more acidic. Even if eating fruits was healthy, they will rip your teeth a new arsehole

    Fruits = fiber + nutrients + sugar. You can't eat much fruit because of the fiber making you full. You shouldn't eat much fruit because that would be a ton of sugar. There is no point in eating much fruit because the sugars will outweigh the benefits of the nutrients. Fruit is literally bullshit. Other than avocados or strawberries, maybe the occasional sweet berry, eat vegetables and meat instead.

    Also, black dog wins this thread.

    This got substantially better with feedback. Awesome. But isn't it a bit hard to tell what it is, if you're not already aware?

    Oli I don't know what the fuck Sentura is talking about but it sounds like he's onto something!!! This image is way cooler than the last one!!

    There does seem to be a general "zeitgeist" you can track as people scramble for new themes. I was dreaming up an Asian map myself, there goes that idea. Maybe it's time to pull a Gwalior and make a map based in a ridiculously random place.

    edit: on a more relevant note, that floorplan looks pretty cool.
