southsider2k5 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 7, 2008 -> 06:13 PM) So any tips on any unlikely foods that are really good protein sources? For example a typical day of food for me would be a breakfast of cereal, a bagel before I get to work (with nothing in it), a lunch consisting probably of some sort of foccacia / sandwich (it'll most likely have chicken in it), an apple / chocolate bar in the afternoon, some potato chips when I get home from work, dinner would probably be a Steak / Chicken / Fish with potatoes, carrots, beans, celery, lettuce and broccoli and Dessert would probably be some Ice - Cream or an Orange. (Waits for the you need to eat more posts..........). Beer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 8, 2008 -> 10:12 AM) Beer! Whilst I agree beer is and should be the the natural answer to every human need, it is of course a very poor source of protein. Now, the discarded brewery yeast on the other hand would be a fine source of protein. But DBHAO has already voiced his aversion to Vegemite which is the quintessential brewery yeast byproduct intended for human consumption.

Pants Rowland Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Feb 6, 2008 -> 04:30 PM) Its actually Jaffa Bagels, I always confuse it with Haifa Cafe because that place gives out a million fliers. And Union Station also has a sandwich place that has some interesting things, but the drinks are pre-made and in ice so its kind of watered down. And Lou Mitchell's is good,its a nice place for breakfast. One of the best of the healthier lunchtime options in the loop. You gotta watch your sandwichista, though. They sometimes go light on the toppings you ask for, especially the mustard. The falafel is a nice side to get with the turkey. Definitely better than Haifa. Taza next to Perry's on Franklin is also nice for middle eastern food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mplssoxfan Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 My parents just sent me a shipment of Waygu Sliders from Dean and DeLuca. I'm going to eat well tonight, but I may want to make out my will. If you hear a loud noise like a creaky trunk slamming shut coming from the north, don't worry. That'll be my arteries slamming shut. Yum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They char it and it's a bit overdone, which I LOVE, in any meat really. But portillo's does everything great, even their salads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
