    Kroll Show is hit or miss, but I thought his European skit nailed the outsider's view of the absurdity of their diets (stereotyped, naturally)



    We eat as much as we want and never get fat...because of olive oil

    Butter is good stuff and way better than most oils (coconut oil can be better in some cases), but I use it more like a condiment. For cooking, ghee is where it's at.

    This is my favorite butter right now and it's cheaper than Kerrygold, I'm guilty of slicing pieces off and eating it straight up.

    And if that's not there I'll get it from Ireland, or really any country where cows eat grass.

    Riveting information, I know.

    I still likespraynon-stick coating. Not just for cooking, but when you spray it in a bag and inhale it you get to play football with talking unicorns.

    Have you tried the whole bulletproof coffee thing with it yet? 2 tbsp of butter, 2tbsp of coconut oil, blend it up with your coffee and go. It's pretty damn amazing as a morning kickoff. It's also really good if you're in a rush and can't have a full breakfast as it weighs in at around 600 calories.

    And also, for everyone saying that lots of butter is the reason for the high rates of heart disease need to realize that more and more studies are showing that's not actually the case. It's primarily from all of the other processed vegetable oils as well as the complete overabundance of HFCS in everything.

    The day I waste 600 of my hard-earned calories by drinking them in non-alcoholic form has yet to dawn.

    600 calories? That's 2 bacon and egg sandwiches! Fuck that noise.

    I'm the guy who goes to a fast food joint and orders a huge meal... and a diet coke. It irritates me when people mock that type of behaviour. I mean, let's say I'm angling for around 1500 calories for said meal, why would I waste 300 of those on my fucking drink when for a 5% decrease in flavour I can also throw in an extra cheeseburger?

    Cheeseburger > Coke.


    Also, Aspartame is delicious, and totally not bad for you in any way whatsoever pinky swear.

    Maybe it's a territory thing, but it seems that nobody around these parts likes real butter. Just margarine, which is REAL good for you.

    Yeah I used to think people ordering diet with a hamburger was something to mock. Then you realize it's either 400-500 for a hamburger and a zero calorie soda or 700+ for the same burger with a regular pop, even if you get water it's going to be the lesser of two evils. As for aspartame you hear from the same Facebook post with the picture and grey text or the same snake oil salesmen that try and shill vegan diets on Netflix docs how bad this is for you. They tend to go way overboard. Moderation people god damn.

    I tried the the bullet proof coffee recipe with non grass fed butter and regular non mold free coffee beans (dun dun DUUUUNNNNN). I mean it taste good, anything with that much butter is bound to, but I didn't get some life altering coffee experience. I really don't buy that using grass fed butter and free radical free coffee, or what ever that guy was trying to shill on Joe Rogans podcast, was going to make that big a difference.

    As much as I hate to admit it, alcohol is by far the number one thing that fucks up my diet. People can bitch about HFCS being added to processed foods all day long. As much as a try to cook and eat clean during the week. Ill go out and drink all weekend and end up going nuts with drunk food. Self control is nothing in the face of 10+ beers and a few shots.

    I don't know maybe it's a state requirement to shave said bush to make housing insulation.

    Somewhere, the ghost of Upton Sinclair just got an idea for another sausage-themed book.

    Ugh. Just thinking about that book churns my stomach. Never ask again how meat is packed.

    I have tried it and am pretty neutral on it from a taste standpoint, the issue I have is I like the coffee I drink at home black because it's really good stuff and I don't like to fuck with it. But on the road where I get shitty coffee I don't usually have access to coconut oil or good butter so I have to do a bastardized version of it (shitty butter just stirred in, not frothed).

    Fucking great hangover cure though, and like you said a good source of calories if I'm in a pinch food wise.

    Yeah, those partially hydrogenated trans fats are really healthy! I'm surprised anyone still eats margarine.

    You know what I'm mocking? You going to a fast food place and counting calories. At that point who gives a shit?

    Stop everything you're doing, and read this: <a class="postlink" href="https://twitter.com/TuckerMax/status/323848492692934657" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">https://twitter.com/TuckerMax/status/323848492692934657</a>

    I know, I know. The movie sucked. But someone else had all of the creative control for this, so it might work. Besides, a play with a stocked bar sounds like fun.
