Craving for salt n vinegar chips.. ? Salt n vinegar kale chips!! by Maplesyrupandbaconin keto

rinsed. Was from a bag of frozen. How's it supposed to taste?

America's Test Kitchen Super Quick Video Tips by thermin Cooking

[–]heliosxx 10 points11 points ago

Hate me all you want, but there are some significant down sides to a lot of these tips. The water with the bacon will leach the salt out, and affect the flavor. Plus, thick cut bacon fat, crisped is a delight. I do not want to render out all of the fat.
The oil blend neglects to mention the omega 6 boost you get when doing it.
microwaving your herbs will cook them and volatilize some of the oils out.
The chilling wine might work, but a simpler method is to find the vent in your freezer, and place the bottle in it's flow.

Thanks, I'm getting tired of people constantly saying to eat less salt, especially when talking about weight loss.

Does kale normally have weird perfumy taste? I got some, figuring it'd taste like collard greens, or similar mild leafy greens, but it tastes of perfume. Did I get a bad batch or is that normal?

What are the consequences from walking away from an upside down mortgage in Michigan or tips on getting the bank to renegotiate my interest rate by philsorapterin personalfinance

don't have much choice in the waiting part. It's really up to the bank how fast they move.
Also 13000 doesn't seem like a lot for all the risk and credit death he'll be going through.

How to Make Booze at Home? by nostradamuzin Frugal

[–]heliosxx 3 points4 points ago

in the US you're only allowed to make wine and beer. Look up homebrew, there's a ton of resources. Your best bet is to find a local brew shop and go there.

Costco 4lbs by LegacyZXTin Bacon

[–]heliosxx 2 points3 points ago

favorite mass market bacon is still the trader joe's uncured ends and pieces. Cheap, if you're willing to forgo even pieces at 2.99/lbs. No nitrates and nitrites and still with salt. I've tried supermarket brands of uncured bacon after reading that the majority of the bad part of bacon is the nitr-ate/ites, but all of it was WAY under salted. It was like eating a bit of smoked pork.

anyone have trouble getting enough protein? by heliosxxin keto

[–]heliosxx[S] 1 point2 points ago

that's what the ratio should be in cals, my numbers are in grams, which should have the protein a bit over the fat.

[–]heliosxx[S] 0 points1 point ago

yeah, I ate skinless chicken for both lunch and dinner and it came out right with the cheese and avocado I had that day. I guess if I eat steak I shouldn't but blue cheese on top. Again, I keep reading about people putting butter on their steaks and such, I just feel like I'm doing something wrong in comparison.

The olive oil went on the veggies to cook them, and only 5 grams there. But the ratio of fat to protein on the sausage is 2:1 ! I mean, I'm not surprised I'm over on fat knowing what the stats are, the issue is that everyone here seems to be all about eating the fatty meats, and not getting enough fat and so adding other fats in.

[–]heliosxx[S] 0 points1 point ago

well, that's sort of my point, how is it that kielbasa and steak have a higher fat to protein ratio than bacon or pork rinds? Even on days where I eat just skinless chicken breast, the cheese and avocado put me over easily.

Is there any truth to the scare that black mold in a home will fry your brain, cause memory problems, etc.? by zornoin skeptic

[–]heliosxx 2 points3 points ago

wasn't this stuff called mildew and generally regarded as an unsightly nuisance? I can understand if it accumulated somewhere and there's gobs of spores and whatnot, but the black smear you often see in wet areas, isn't that just the old mildew?
