Eat the peel

lol lol this is the EAT THE PEEL thread watso just amused himself in relation to what poster he responded to..

maybe some time ago, watso may have (or maybe not) have commented on the good price that he had purchased cooking pears ...

anyway, watso still had about 6 or 7 pears left and thought that he would cook them .. like the others ..

anyway, watso is sitting outside,on a milk crate, and peeling the pairs/pears .. lol lol and what a waste of peel .. watso should have been eating the peel ..

anyway, to cut a long story short - but the pears (3 pairs of pears .. ie half a dozen) were ready to be eaten so watso ate them instead .. all of them for dinner..

mm mmm earlier on that day, watso was a bit hungry , and all that was readily available was a can of bake beans (watso has about 100 cans stocked up for a nuclear winter .. vulcarum knows about them) ..

what a combination .. half a dozen peeled pears with a can of bake beans ..

explosions were happening all over the place and far more lethal than anything recorded in the ukraine/palestine conflicts

@watso you realise you have a great gourmet rival on here?? his name is @NoBoDe - he can tell you about eclectic food mixes.

I am not so omnivorous - purchase pears, but eat them raw, unpeeled but cut into pieces, 1 or 2 per day - also mandarins, but they go into my breakfast drink - used to eat a self-mixed muesli for breakfast, but now have purchased diet 'dust' - comes in sachets and gets put with water into a blender, plus some frozen berries from ALDI as well as a cut-up mandarin with the peel. Great breakfast - digests very quietly and fills me up for 3 - 4 hours. I love coffee, the real coffee - have 2-3 per day, probably shouldn't, but what the heck!
If I feel i want to lash out, i will also put 2 dollops of ice-cream into the morning mix.

Lately i am eating a lot of vegetables as well as fruit, as I had some bad kidney readings after my 2 1/2 year nightly indulgence . . .
New test this Monday!
But I felt the good effect almost immediately when I went on this new diet (since June)very little alcohol, if possible none - not possible for me, am a social critter and share the odd drink with friends)
also try and cut down on flour products - mustn't eat canned beans, - should
drink lots of water and
eat:
salmon
beef
and other meats and fish in small amounts daily,
am allowed lentils, but have to be careful with beans.
I do spend money on good food, but have found ALDI have some surprising goods, don't like their 'Berg' stuff - despite the European name, the meats and 'charcuterie' are nothing like the original. They do have a nice Gorgonzola and some other cheap imported cheeses, Gouda is my favorite. I even mince my own Bolognaise sauce meat, buy my meat at Coles, grass-fed etc.

When I have finished all the practical work round here, I will make my own bread again - with sour dough and matured over 3 days . . . it is delicious and keeps well, never goes moldy.
You do eat some strange food, @watso - one shouldn't economise on food, if there is a need to do that, home-cooking is the answer and eating small portions . . .
