I’m pretty sure the only thing I don’t cover in some condiment is steak

Ever look into the Vince Gironda steak and eggs diet? Sounds like it’d pair well there. One of those diets I always wanted to try.

I prefer soft boiled or tea eggs. This is one area that Asians are wayyy ahead of the game on. The convenience stores in China and Japan sell them prepackaged or house made!

I started complaining about how bored and tired of chewing I was last night at dinner. My fiancee jokingly asked if I wanted my burrito sent through the food processor, like they do for the old people in the nursing home she used to work at.
She saw the wheels turning for a few seconds and immediately insisted she would never allow me to do that.

I used to do that with tinned tuna and milk when I was a young man. Not nice but easy way to get protein and fish oil.

I am not really a cultured man, and I’m sure there must be a meal similar to that in some culture in this world… but I don’t think I’d ever be ballsy enough to drink blended fish milk.

My pizza store has a few pizzas with pepper listed as a topping. When I first saw this I thought Feck off putting pepper down as a topping.
Now I am wondering how much pepper these pizzas have and I am curious to try them… My confession, is I am not willing to risk my cheat meal on a new pizza that might turn out to be rubbish so I will order my usual and a pepper one

Sounds right up my street. I do the eggs because its guaranteed to give me depleted glycogen and a pretty empty GI tract before weigh in, but I dont see why steak wouldnt work.
If you do it, let me know how it goes. Another one of those food pairings I could eat every day of my life and be happy with, haha.

A far superior recipe, if I do say so myself:
I’ve tried to stop seeing food as enjoyment and start seeing it as nutrition. So if its good for me - it goes in. If its not - it say out.
Except for banana bread. If I see banana bread - I’m going to eat it. And if I have to fight you to get it then I will fight you, win and then eat it.
Looking at the chicken shake video.
Confession - 2 days ago I cooked 650g (1 1/2lb) of chicken breast in canned tomato’s with frozen veg, garlic powder and chilli powder.
I tried some and it was not nice and eating that for lunch 2 days in a row would be a bit crap. So I blended it with another tin of tomato. I now have warm it through with some frozen mash I made. Its not very nice. But the mash takes away form the texture. And if its getting a bit too much I can warm up tiny meals. Like 3-4 mouth fulls at a time. It takes all of my self control not to add 1/2 a block of cheese to this.
Confession 2:
My wife and my mother in law both saw me make this. One of them (not sure who - but I’d guess my wife) pipe up with:
“You know that’s weird right”.
My immediate reply was “Yeah - so is a 250kg dead lift” like it meant something to them.
For the record I do not deadlift 250kg - that’s the goal for this year.

I shared a story of this in another thread, but when I was gaining weight in my early 20s and newly wed, my wife would bake mini-loafs of banana bread and wrap them in foil, and I developed a habit of taking a whole loaf, peeling back the foil, and eating it like a candy bar, haha. I miss those days.

I think I remember reading that - that was you.
I love banana bread. Its brilliant. I try and convince myself it healthy (its got a fruit in it). However my waist line says otherwise.
Confession:
On a kinda related note - when they classified pizza as being one of your 5 fruit and veg a day I died a little bit on the inside. BUT when trying to reach 5 portions of fruit and veg in a day - I have relied on pizza more then once.
On the few posts I’ve seen where people ask for “any way to gain weight” regardless of health issues - just wanting pure weight gain, I’m always SO tempted to ask them if they’ve tried drinking a bunch of beer every night. Unfortunately, with my history of having indulged too much with recreational substances I just can’t bring myself to do it, but there’s probably nothing better for quick weight gain than drinking fuckloads of beer.

In fairness, with 100% of those topics, you could stop with

I got to that 24oz steak for dinner and audibly said the f-word at my desk.
This needs to be socialized as the next weight gain solution, just like the J M Blakley diet.

Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer.

Honestly, getting down 1.5 lbs of t-bone steak after all that might be hard, but the 3 baked potatoes along with it make it a truly terrifying thing to imagine.
