And then there's whether such people are to be believed... I seriously
doubt they are being truthful... normal brained people wouldn't dirty
a pan for two ounces of meat... ask what accompanies those two ounces
of meat, probably a quart of fly lice and a pint of Ben & Jerry's.
When I put a 5 lb roast in the oven I'm certainly not going to eat it
all at one sitting but I'm certainly going to eat more than two
ounces, mainly because it tastes very good and I'm hungry. Were I
truly eating purely for sustanence I'd open a tin of tuna... I buy
Bumble Bee solid white albacore in 3 oz tins (says 2.2 ozs dry
weight). BJs sells them in six packs, one tin is just right on one of
my humongous garden salads. The tuna in those small tins for whatever
reason is of a better quality than in the normal size tins.
I just looked at a one pound pack of eight tube steaks, so one weighs
two ounces... one 2 oz tube steak is no kind of dinner. For the two
of us I cook three each with a tin of Heinz Vegetarian beans, veg only
because she doesn't like to see those bits of fatty pork, neither do
I. She can eat whatever she wants and still weighs the same as the
day I met her 27 years ago, 130 pounds at 5' 6", but she's very
active, with golf, skiing, bicycle riding and tons of gardening...
gardening all these acres is no window box. I think these people who
claim to eat a 2 oz steak are prone on their couch 24/7 and weigh ~300
pounds. Sure, 2 0z steaks my ass, truth is each day they do the fast
food drive-thru and buy a dozen biggie burgers with fries and a few 40
oz shakes.
