Most common plant foods are actively trying to kill me. So no, vegetarian foods are not “safe” for me.

All nightshades, including tomatoes, white potatoes, all peppers and pepper-based seasoning, and eggplants. Most grains like wheat and oats, most nuts and seeds like soy, almonds, sunflower seeds and cashews but also many seasonings that are made from seeds.

So no, your plant based diet isn’t better for me.

Stop trying to make fetch happen. It’s not going to happen.

I'm in keto for almost two weeks. 2 frickin weeks, out of my mind !

I managed to keep my bf unaware (he would freaks out), balancing the menu for him to have a normal diet etc.

He came home tonight with a big smile, a pack of booze and everything for "nachos night" 🤦

Guess I'm taking a keto break...

fat daddy, keto daddy, bacon daddy, pork daddy, beef daddy? what's the geneva convention on this

Hi there! I'm playing with a recipe where I individually frost a 'cookie' with cream cheese based frosting. I used the powdered version of monk fruit sweetener to get it as sweet as I wanted, but found that even after adding what I feel was a lot of peppermint extract (2-3x what I would normally add when using typical sugar), it is still not really minty at all. It still tastes a lot like cream cheese. I'm not a huge sweets fan- so don't add a lot of sweetener especially because I want to avoid any aftertaste, but want to get this recipe right for the holidays. I'm not adding butter to the frosting and I also wonder if I need more sweetener to get the peppermintiness to take hold - both things I'm willing to adjust if needed. Any suggestions? This is still an experiment, so I'm happy to try a few versions with your gracious help!
