    Low Carb at Wendy's! My son was waiting on our order while I was getting straws. An older man asked him if my burger was low carb. My son said yes. The man said he didn't know Wendy's would do that. I feel like We've helped educated someone today!!

    unfortunately, this is not the case for all Wendy's locations.

    Keeping it real simple;

    150g Chicken fried/basted in 30g butter
    Six Asparagus
    Half an Onion
    Half an Avocado
    Sitting on a bed of melted cheese, smashed with salt and pepper.

    Gout hits you when you're not getting enough minerals/vitamins - a lot of keto people think it's all beef, bacon, butter and cheese but it's essential that you're still getting those green vegetables in; that's my lunchtime meal so it's higher in protein and fats to drive me through the day.

    I eat no vegetables and have no deficiencies. Meat contains every essential nutrient. Assuming it's not cooked until it's dust.
    Anyway, gout is another one of those things that mainstream has one belief of cause that isn't actually quite that way. There's a thread about it in open threads in launch pad I think.

    Are you taking supplements/minerals?

    Meat most definitely does not have every essential nutrient.

    Not from what I've read but I do eat a large salad every day almost and also take a multivitamin and mineral supplement everyday and usually eat cooked vegetables and also usually eat from all the food groups including whole grains and dairy. Not sure what else I can do about that. Mostly it's hereditary, then dehydration, then diet and too much meat will set me off like clockwork. I've recently read fructose is even a bigger contributor than meat so I'm trying to give that up (at least the refined forms). I've had a lot of experience with this.

    Pork, steak, and chicken fajitas without the onion, rice, beans, or tortilla. I did have some unpictured cheese and guacamole.

    The elk in Colorado is just not the same as the ones grown in NZ. I lived in Australia and traveled to NZ for a few years and got spoiled. Also the apples, OMG, NZ apples rock my world when I can get them.

    @cstehansen--that's really sad! I mean, all they have to do is add a leaf of lettuce and not put it on a bun. It's nice they put it in a baked potato container but they could just wrap it in the regular paper for all I care. I guess I've been fortunate because no one has denied my no bun or wrap requests...at least not yet!
