I have quite a lot of experience with this. but it was western Europe level of poverty, not serbian. i could always look at my peers ordering food 2-3 times a week and feel quite comfortable in my food costs.

The main advice is: shoplift. This is a parody btw. Totally not my genuine advice that I apply on a daily basis.

Then it's also important to get very acquainted with the options you have. Much of my advice simply won't apply to the Serbian market.

I go to several supermarkets (without a car) to assure both highest quality and lowest cost. The next is quantity!! Get large amounts of things, it is always cheaper. Sometimes online options are good in this case too, especially if they suspend shipping costs over a certain amount.

A few examples:

After years I found out a certain brand of grape juice was a lot cheaper (and sweeter) than OJ, and have only been consuming that since.

Zucchini are a great fruit option to make in large batches.

Dates are great. cheap, they don't go bad fast. The tunisian deglet nours and iranian mazafati dateshave a great cost-digestibility balance

Skim milk powder pancakes give me a filling breakfast everyday and are fairly cheap.

Master broth for protein. check out my signature. recently i've been shoplifting calf feet because the butcher near me is inside a supermarket and i just pretend it's a bag from a different store when i go by the cash register with all my other groceries that i do pay for but it's still not expensive even when you pay for it. This entire last sentence was a total parody and not true. never happened.

Just be flexible, learn a lot, and try to make choices that result in the best possible option. This seems super obvious but it's good to remind yourself you can still find out a lot.

@Solrig oh wow that is too much lol, but no i'm fit and not pooping myself for months at a time because i'm too stupid

@Solrig yeah i'm stone cold incel. i live in a parallel world where women hate handsome, tall, kind and well-read men. all the women here are dating guys like you so i got no chance

for years you've had diarrhea every single day? sounds like you're fucking braindead.

@monkey11

My pooping mixture:

1 teaspoon fine baking soda (arm n hammer)
2 TBsp magnesium bisglycinate
2 teaspoons instant coffee
250 ml skim milk
pinch of salt

repeat if doesn't work

POOP TIME

I literally solved the issue here but you autists can't help yourselves

@Solrig Read it again retard. You do whatever you want. Pussy

@guy said in Cookware recommendations:

Looking for cheap Amazon nonstick/ceramic cooking pans anyone have suggestions for the least zogged pans out there?

So the best easily available option for all cookware to me seems like stainless steel. The glass cookware stuff is quite strange because tinted glass is high in lead.

Stainless steel is king. It's how restaurants get their steaks to taste like that. They will improve your cooking skill, both through the way it handles heat and the fact that it requires a bit more attention. I love making pan sauces in mine, which is absolutely impossible in typical cookware.

What you want for health is any low-nickel stainless steel. In the US there's a brand called Solidteknics that has extremely low-nickel. Might be worth it, but I just got a cheap one online that had a low percentage alloy (I forget how I searched for it).

@Ecstatic_Hamster said in How much Gelatin should you eat everyday?:

Gelatin has to me a slaughterhouse smell, which collagen doesn’t, so I only use collagen.I suspect gelatin is loaded with endotoxins.

Only Yanks could ever talk about food this way. Instantly assuming the person is referencing some terrible industrial form of it. In some ways you guys are less than human.

You must not have a lot of experience talking to bodybuilders

why the fuck WOULD i talk to a bunch of mentally ill fat people with a death wish? Seriously if you're just gonna say retarded shit please don't reply.

@CO3 I'm thinking of mostly just drinking it. I might make a broth & chug it from a flask tbh...

No you won't. Be a fucking human being.

Nate Lawrence told me that exact sentence a couple months ago. So Nate Lawrence

OK? who is that even? i barely remember this guy, definitely don't remember him contributing anything useful.

eating lamb instead of beef is a better recommendation if cooking is not too scary for example. as it has a better ratio of amino acids.

cooking gelatinous cuts like ox tail (not in a broth), or making dishes using other cuts of meat that include connective and joint tissues would be another way of doing this if cooking is an option.

if cooking for whatever reason is hard especially time-intensive dishes -as it can certainly be for a variety of reasons - then i would still kindly suggest finding the 20-30 minutes work and 2-3h idle time it would require to make something like my broth because it will provide you with up to two weeks of lots and lots of gelatin that has many applications.

of course that could still be hard to find the time or space for, or you could not have the energy for it. in that case the collagen powder would be good (for someone that is not eager to save any money). Certainly one of the better proteins available should not be limited to 3-6 tablespoons. I think this shoul point itself out? Does anyone get what i'm saying here? That this is not a micronutrient. tis is like talking about one of the better forms of a macronutrient?

@voldtzeig good B1 from a pure powder is not a bad idea at all! sunlight and all the other environmental factors would help. maybe a spa day or something similar. lots of human touch

@JTOATJOWHLOR yup

@Lovesickhs18 3-6 tbsp. On the higher end If you have gut health problems. Nate Lawrence has a lot of stuff on this on his twitter.

3-6 tbsp?

who talks about food like that? Ignore all of these supplement-pharmaceutical-death industry brainwashed people here and make the Master Broth and have more of it than you would of any other protein source. would you eat dried steak from a sketchy supplement company? Just eat food it's not super easy but it's not too hard either. just try it once. cook. cook you god damn americans just cook.

@Lovesickhs18 ideally for me it makes up up to 80% of my protein intake. it's not really a matter of a ratio. it is just superior. the way sugars are superior to starches.

@Solrig Good. keep going. diarrhea will not persist, it often is a symptom when i do the right things for about a day. this is not a 'but the detox' type of advice it's pretty much a very fast improvement. i think the gut motility suddenly increasing, and a change in the membrane causes it. You do you but that's what i learned by using a ton of magnesium over the years. It's an increidble thing, unlike most of the stupid supplements people take

@Mulloch94 said in Any peaters using squash as their main (or a regular) source of carbs? If so, how's it going?:

How many do you eat? 3.5 pounds (1,600 grams) of zucchini only has 33 grams of net carbohydrate. I prefer to treat zucchini as a vegetable than a fuel source.

IDK I'm not some nerd eating with a calculator next to me. if i had to guess i eat 2kg of zucchini at a time. i mean again i'm not autistic, it's 90 percent water so my normal European brain automatically perceives that i need to eat more to be satiated.

that would be a meal providing you with like 70 grams of carbs according to google.. as another meal on the same day i will put like 2 zucchinis in some master broth, and have a bunch of dates and tamarind with that.

what does 'i treat it as a vegetable, not as fuel' even mean? what? are you OK? Do you need help?

i hate you for making me interact with food in this stupid way,

'omg whats the macros' 'look at my cronometer stats'

SHUT THE FUCK UP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@GreekDemiGod yeah he said that's what he had in mind!

@Solrig bowel tolerance? u mean diarrhea?
