Well if you're experience of food in Texas is based on Houston than I don't blame you. Easily the worst of the major Texas cities for the food scene. I'd even rank it behind El Paso and Lubbock. Austin and San Antonio have the best eats in the state. I would say Texas' claim to culinary fame is BBQ (no good BBQ joints in Houston so I'd give it another try if I were you) and Mexican (not Tex Mex). The one thing Houston does have is a surprisingly good Korean restaurant scene. No idea why but there are some great joints down there.
Some posters will contribute to this board as if their input shapes the course of world peace negotiations. I don't and I have far bigger fish to fry. Its merely a diversion from reality. Over the years, however, I've seen the infighting, name calling, penis and vagina measuring increase to an embarassing level. The pontificating of some posters is, in fact, disgusting. No one's chit here smells like Chanel #5. So, I prefer to make light of virtually all discourse unless its a serious topic of discussion, I'm P.O.'ed, or I just feel like it.
BTW, does grain-free affect penis size? Asking for a friend.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny. Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.
My issue is that grain free people tend to become fanatical about the issue. Some are downright insufferable.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
All things in moderation, including vice consumption of grains.
Paleo is pseudoscience. Grains are fine, and I say this as someone who has gone down the full grain-free path and even still generally avoids eating gluten/drinking milk. Eliminating grains is just an effective heuristic for removing carbohydrates and processed food. If you look at a pareto-type analysis, one can get about 80% of results from calories-in-calories-out and adjusting macros. Eliminating grains / processed food will easily reduce the total caloric intake and then also typically increase protein consumption. Increased protein consumption is both more satiating and muscle-sparing in a caloric deficit. In addition, eliminating grains will generally increase vegetable consumption as a substitute, which is almost always good. Last, considering older and less active people tend to require less carbs, reducing grain intake is helpful. Grain free is massively helpful to lots of people. I'm sure it's been tremendously beneficial to 4ever. Above is the science behind why it works. My issue is that grain free people tend to become fanatical about the issue. Some are downright insufferable. I think it's bad science to vilify an entire spectrum of food, but if your commitment mechanism requires 100% adherence, then knock yourself out. However, science demonstrates that it's just as effective to hit a daily caloric target, and if you want to go further, set a protein/carb target. In other words, hit your macros, bro. All things in moderation, including vice consumption of grains.
That's not exclusive to grain free. I think every new fad diet has its insane devotees that have to constantly talk about their diet. I feel most exercise programs are the same.
Just had the Horseradish Cheddar cheese spread. Definitely leaped Port Wine as my favorite cheese spread.
North American grains are harder than soft shaft European grains. Always go Euro.
+1. From Trader Joe's? It's outstanding.
