Can't be coincidence. Gordon is into green food and recycling. I think only Gordon and any small boy knows that there is only one edible green foodOriginally posted by Churchill View PostDo you not think it's rather a coincidence that Gordon bleats on about food bills and wastage exactly 54 years after the ending of food rationing in Britain? (7 July 1954)

Our brains use 20% of the energy expended and being warm blooded has a high energy cost. Muscles also burn up a lot of energy, even when they are doing nothing.
Hey, have they fixed this website, I can see the emoticons without some being obscured by other links on the page.

Using 100g a portion, usually, or a can:Originally posted by Charles Foster Kane View PostYeah, one day's food, if you're a field mouse.
Target should be say 2500 Cal / day, so that leaves 880 Cal to get from cheap high energy items like lard/butter/fat and sugar. (200g sugar or 100g butter). It's surprising how much we need to eat a day. We are eating machines.Code:Muesli 220 Cal Rice 300 Cal Beans 330 Cal Bread (2 slices) 100 Cal Apple ? Cal Spuds 80 Cal Sausage(2) 100?Cal Bread (2 slices) 100 Cal Creamed Rice 390 Cal ---- 1620 Cal ----

Who said anything about McDonalds? Lettuce-munchers have a veritable plethora of retail emporia anxious to pander to their delusional dietary aspirationsOriginally posted by Charles Foster Kane View PostOr, I could just shoot myself in the face. Besides, anyone that buys a salad in McDonalds is a homo.
It's finding a decent fry-up that's getting difficult these days

Lordy me, I wasn't implying that I'd eat crap like that myselfOriginally posted by RichardCranium View PostThat's fine for a jungle-dwelling chimp.Originally posted by NickFitz View PostNP:
- In the morning, buy yoghurt instead of coffee.
- At lunchtime, buy a salad instead of burger and chips.
- In the afternoon, have water and some fruit instead of cola and chocolate bars.
HTH.
We have a tea-trolley three times a day laden with bacon butties, hot sausage rolls, crisps, chocolate, cakes and biccies.
ClientCo is slowly killing me.
This was a recommendation to somebody else.
For my diet, see my reply to the doggy's post - although I don't eat eggs, so I'd replace that with a sausage or two.
And I'd replace the chips with a fried slice if I wasn't overly peckish - no point guzzling

Yeah, one day's food, if you're a field mouse.Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostHow cheap could a nutritious diet be? Where taste is a secondary consideration.
Example of one days food:
Breakfast:Muesli = 5.2p (+ a bit more for milk if you is posh)
Porridge = 7p " (+ 10p cooking if you is really posh)
Lunch and dinner/tea:Rice = £1.34 / kg or 13p a portion (+10p to cook)
Spuds = 36p / kg or 4p a portion (+10p to cook)
Bread = 10p / portion
Beans = 20p / can (+5p to cook)
Sausages = 20p for a cheap sausage (you need a bit of meat).
Pudding:A can of creamed rice is only about 20p
Drinks:Water = 0p (sourced from the water butt if necessary).
or tea where heating costs dominate.
Apple a day = 16p
So 1 days food could be Muesli + Beans + Spuds + Bread + Rice + Apple = 93p
About a pound a day? And much less if you bought huge bags of spuds/porridge/rice?

I was once a sufferer of bulimia with alzheimers, I put on 10 stone as I kept forgetting to throw upEat as much as you like of everything you like.
Then down a bottle of Vodka and puke it all back up again.
