Even more important than cost is where he picked it up from?

Maybe you should try eating Grass. or maybe you did at school

Tops.

Sure that isn't Soy Sauce?

This is my lunch. It bristles with nutrients.

Now if you'll excuse me I have some de-ageing to do...

What's the shit on top? I assume that is shit?

^ So in you world, Sid, faecal matter is a conventional lunchtime component?
How odd. How very fucking odd indeed.

That 'shit' you refer to Sidney, is lentils, bulgur wheat and salmon.

But alas, life was much simpler way back when lau khao was served for breakfast. It isn't easy being a rainbow-farting leaf muncher, you know - but I've just discovered a local brewery so hoping to be properly back on the piss presently.

^HIPSTER!

Still, probably worth it for the extra 40 years life expectancy.

Yeah probably. 40 years dribbling rocking back and forth paying 2 grand a month in an old folks home.

Still, 150 is a good old age.

Not bad.

I've tried some Thai craft beers. I didn't really like them much; drinkable but that's about it. This one is much better.

Me and the missus perhaps? Or both me and Slap being miles from it?

Him and Harry, obviously. Can't you tell by the bickering that they've been an item for yonks?

Hogs Back Brewery by any chance Slap?

Just need to point out, that that brown goop looks exactly like cat vomit.

Seriously though, hard core detox food, not far off what I normally eat (although I am less fussed about the "detox" side of it all). It starts to get hugely boring around the 4th or 5th month, and does not improve thereafter. Struggle is to keep variety.

What my diet has bought home to me is the inevitable link between "fat" and "flavour". You will start to crave fatty anything after a while.

Still good luck with it. Bet the "cat vomit" actually tastes quite good.

^That actually looks really good, slap.

He does get 'good fat' with the avocado. He gets fiber and protein from the bulgar and beans on top. He also gets good fats from the olives. I'd eat that for lunch. I usually eat something similar for lunch. Throw on a bit of salmon and you'll definitely be full and be full of nutrients and good health!

Chicken, Bacon, Mushroom pasta in a light cream sauce.



Mise en place.... done.




Dry fry the mushrooms so that they release their water content and thus boost their actual flavour.

Fry off the chicken pieces and the lardons of smoked German bacon. ( no need to add salt)







Combine the chicken, bacon and a nice bunch of fresh thyme.




add the sweated onion and garlic




Allow this to cook for about 5 minutes and then add the pasta along with cream. I used ''pasta cream''..... avoid. too thin. Use single cream





Season with black pepper. I used black Kampot pepper. No added salt as the bacon has sufficient.




And you're done.



and enough for probably 3 meals for the freezer.

^^ Very good Sir.


Will pop by tonight to break into the freezer.

You kinda miss the point. Yes, he gets the "good fats". But its the nasty knarly ones that go with flavour. An avocado is pleasant enough, but it does not compare to a good, fat filled, juicy rib eye steak.

I eat almost no saturated fats - no red meat, no dairy, no almost everything. A bite of "normal food" can almost knock my socks off with the flavour.

...you haven't mentioned your monastery's name...

Some sadists on this forum.


Think I'll stick to regular exercise, low carbs and alcohol during weekdays, and an all round balanced diet.
