Y’all are fucking heretics. Pineapple is wack on pizza. A good slice needs no toppings, but if we’re going the toppings route, give me prosciutto and arugula. Or just pepperoni. Or anything but something with such an overwhelming sweet and sour taste that cancels out the flavors from the pizza.

Blame social media for that. A lot of people hate it simply because social media tells them to. Ofc, I think Haiwaiian is freakin fantastic.

That’s why it also needs the crumbled hot sausage.

But yeah, I am a heretic.

For non heretical pizza Margherita is my favorite.

My wife, being a Maui native, is always quick to inform me that just putting pineapple on things does NOT make it Hawaiian.

Which, of course, is what she says when I ask her if they called Hawaiian pizza ā€œpizzaā€ growing up. Same question about the punch.

Which then prompts her to ask me if all burritos in San Diego come with french fries in them.

On that note, I confess I’ve been coming up with a way to make fat free nachos, using celery for chips. Goddamn am I broken on the inside.

What the…

It’s why I had to post it here, haha.

Lol. But wouldn’t that technically just be celery with dip or something? Haha.

That’s legit.

Does an air fryer come in to play at any point?

I don’t even know what those things do. I just know people like them. Like bitcoin for the kitchen or something. :man_shrugging:

I’ve had to explain to my kid the difference between nachos and chips and dip: don’t make me have to do it here too!

An airfryer definitely sounds like something I’d be interested in. I’m running into the issue where I have so many recipes I want to try and not enough body to put them in. My spirit animal is Derek Poundstone…or Glenn Ross.

Maybe I need to switch sports to ultra marathons. Those guys can apparently eat whatever they want.

It would certainly make getting a green card easier though.

I judge dudes who wear leggings at the gym.

They’re compression tights and they help with recovery, thank you very much.

I actually don’t wear these things. I do own a few pairs but my wife claimed them a long while ago.

Possibly, but these guys looked more like runners than anyone seriously damaging muscle fibers.

Here is where I facetiously call you ā€œAnaā€* and note that actually, you CAN eat whatever you want!

*Ana and Mia as names of sorts come from pro-anorexic and -bulimia social media sites.

That said, and here is my confession, I’ve been doing ā€œexercise snacksā€ as laid out in the NYT, which are meant to be short heart-rate increasers for people working at home a/o sedentary. That’s me! And I’d been pretty off with my workouts, so okay, good supplementary metabolism/health/mood boosters. But now I find myself both doing much better with my real workouts and ā€œexercise snackingā€ all day long. I don’t bang out case notes between clients; I march in place. I don’t return calls and emails at lunch time; I do sprints on the rower (I can do 3 minutes without sweating).

The article offered that exercise could be like ā€œgrabbing a few chips on your way past the bowl,ā€ but I’ve started to hover around the bowl. My husband is away this week and I’m glad, because it unnerves him to come into a room and find me vigorously marching in place.

Yes.

That just ain’t right

I confess that my breakfast consisted of 2 slices of bread and a 5.2oz packet of Boursin cheese


It was delicious, but the amount of calories in such little food is very depressing. To put things into perspective, Each slice of the bread is 60kcal w/4g of protein.

Although, @T3hPwnisher this might make for a good savoury option for your high fat meal thing
