Things I Love

It is too bad that they have to use chemicals to enhance the flavor rather than using better quality spices and natural flavorings. It's just a cheapo way of making something taste better.

I definitely know when I've eaten anything with MSG - I get headaches and cotton mouth.

It really is sad about the amount of chemicals in food (if you can still called processed things "food"). Even "natural" flavorings seem to have a broad definition and I know "natural" flavor enhancers can be labeled along with natural flavors in the "natural flavoring" on ingredient statements...

Isn't MSG made from seaweed or something?

"Although traditional East Asian cuisine had often used seaweed extract, which contains high concentrations of glutamic acid, it was not until 1907 that MSG was isolated by Kikunae Ikeda. MSG was subsequently patented by Ajinomoto Corporation of Japan in 1909."

I knew I didn't just make up the seaweed thing!

Holy crap! Thanks for the heads up on that!

I recently bought the Locke head and most of the clothes. Will have to look into this further!

He is only the most awesome character on the best TV show, EVER.

Hey, I thought you were watching Lost, now. Pay attention, jr!




Just kidding!

Well I mentioned in the things I hate thread that I was taking dairy and sugar cane out of my diet for a month (among a few other things).

And today at the grocery store I found ice cream made out of coconut milk and sweetened with agave nectar and it is delicious! Plus they have cappuccino and chocolate flavors. I'm in heaven!

 

[Maglor]

Was it this stuff?

We have that where I work. It really is delicious.

They sound really good. Good luck with the diet adjustment. I know that would be really hard for me to do.

Wrong thread, suckah.

I love driving the backroads home from work in the morning in the middle of October.

Eating out is the toughest part - but so far it's been good. Took me about 2 hours to go grocery shopping - looking at all the ingredients.

Does it have a coconut taste to it? I hate coconut.

It does have a little coconut taste. I only tried the cappuccino flavor and there were undertones of coconut. I imagine the chocolate flavor will be similar.

 

[devilof76]

Coconut is great if I don't have to chew it.

 

[Maglor]

I love both the taste and texture of coconut.
