It still works and I always keep a box on hand just for that purpose. Now a cold gets treated with homemade chicken noodle soup served with Maggie sauce, salt, & pepper.

Some meals are lower in carbs than others, but only because of the foods selected, not because it was planned.

What you believe about it being unappetizing is hogwash. With a little imagination the meals can be quite satisfying... A sample meal: A rotissiered chicken with Side veggies of grilled zucchinni, bell pepper strips and button mushrooms. Or Salmon with brocolli or a pork cabbage casserole or a 4 egg cheese omlette or Roast beef with green beans. You can eat as much of the chicken or any meat as you want. You can eat your fats, oil, butter etc. So marinades can supply extra flavour. There is no going hungry between meals. The bad part is no pasta, bread, potatoes etc. But you soon get used to it. Average weight lose it about 1 pound a week or 5 pounds a month. Mostly you avoid all forms of: sugar, flour, corn, rice, carrots and peas. And use sparingly onions, tomatoes and soft cheeses. That just about covers it. I've lost 65 pounds in just under a year and I'll admit I cheat once or twice a month. Usually on big things like eating a whole pizza or a large pasta meal. I don't consider the eating of low carbs a diet...more of a lifestyle change. It's my type2 Diabetes that make me eat this way. Low carb eating keeps my BG down and has sugnifintly lowered my HDL & LDLs. -- The eyes are the mirrors.... But the ears...Ah the ears. The ears keep the hat up. |

Average weight lose it about 1 pound a week or 5 pounds a month. Thats the REALLY bad part! I tried the Atkins diet back in the 1970s for a period of about 3 months. I lost weight, but I felt like shit, and I did not adapt or get used to it. I will never do it again. > Mostly you avoid all forms of: sugar, flour, corn, rice, carrots and > peas.

I had an odd "relationship" with food growing up, so -- like many others here have said -- it's more a matter now of liking foods that I'd never have touched as a kid. Denny's post reminds me, however, of a childhood food incident that still makes me shudder. I was sitting in the kitchen of one of several foster homes (none of which were known for stellar cooking <g>). The mom of the house was preparing a roast of some sort (I remember a large chunk of meat in a baking dish) and she'd taken it from the oven. With a cup, she skimmed a large layer of fat from the drippings -- I figured she was going to dump the fat, but instead she drank it. I was so repulsed by that I think I was "off" food for several days after. |

In Pittsburgh, we had "ham barbecue" - chipped ham (chopped pressed
ham, sliced paper thin - the best came from Isaly's), mixed with sauteed celery, onions and Heinz (what else?) barbecue sauce, served on a Town Talk bun. Now, of course, having "dual citizenship" in Virginia and North Carolina, I know the error of my ways. Ah, eastern NC barbecue! |

My parents came from Ukraine. I grew up eating stuff most people would barf
at. My favorite? Probably Mom's homemade head cheese made with various pig parts. Called 'studenetz' in Ukrainian. Drizzle with lemon juice or vinegar, sprinkle with black pepper, mmmm. Favorite condiment? Horseradish and beets! An Easter treat. I also remember liking sour cream and sliced garlic or onion open-faced sandwiches as a kid. |

Incidentally here you would "jemmy" a door open, using a "jemmy" or "jemmy bar". In practice when a lot of people say the word it sounds like "jimmy" though. > Slim Jims are also beef snacks, but they are given that name because > they resemble real slim jims. > http://www.conagrafoods.com/brands/slim_jim.jsp > I've seen the Slim Jims - we seize them from US parcels a fair bit at work (Quarantine).

However, most I know certainly disliked it strongly enough to pull a face, and I wouldn't drink it on purpose - it was... weird - I can't describe it. Also lets not forget that the taste will vary not only between individuals, but with changes/differences in diet and over the nursing period. Shaun aRe |

I think the top I heard was from my Father in law.. Mayonnaise and peanut butter sandwich.... No way could I put this in my mouth. now, another one I heard, but actually might be good was Peanut butter, rasins, and bacon on toast.
