The first one I tried was a garlic butter (or something like that). It was much better after adding more butter. They put very little on it. I have a few other varieties in the freezer I haven't tried yet.
@cstehansen - I did that search on my zipcode for Walmart availability on this last month, and it said they didn't have it within 50 or 100 miles from me. I'll keep my eyes peeled though... Because my guy categorically HATES cauliflower, I've yet to go to the effort to make it just for me.
You can't trust online. It says it is not at my local store either. I have had multiple products where online info didn't match with reality
@cstehansen - I looked online AFTER I looked through the entire freezer section at my local shop. LOL I was looking for a site to store shipping option. It wasn't available.0 -

You can keep both pepperoni and cheese w/o refrigeration (except maybe outdoors in Arizona or S. Texas or Florida in the summer, lol) You can also keep HB eggs UNPEELED in a baggie in your purse. Also little sealed tubs of yogourt are fine in a baggie in your purse. Ask me how I know.Almond flour is so expensive!
My snacks all pretty much include nuts/seeds, string cheese and pepperoni (latter two items I need to keep in the fridge so I can't keep them in my bag for, say, a day at the pool.)
(The theme here is prepackaged foods lol)
Am I the only one who always took a lunch to school that NEVER included an ice pack (not in those days) and never got sick??? I think we've forgotten that not everything rots or becomes unsafe in an hour. Pepperonis and salamis were invented to keep w/o refrigeration for months in a storeroom. Cheese is ripened w/o refrigeration and actually tastes better when room temperature. The shell protects the eggs.
Actually a few times I've forgotten that I had a yogourt in my purse and have eaten it 36 hours later. No problem. The Bedouin keep their yogourt on the side of their camels and horses in desert heat. It's already predigested by the natural bacteria.
Whenever I have left pepperoni or cheese out it starts to "sweat". I figured that can't be good.0 -
the 'sweat' (I think) is the fats in the cheese and pepperoni returning to a more liquid form (from having solidified in the cold). I have to agree, cheese that has been on the counter for awhile has a lot more flavor than cheese that has just come out of the fridge!0

I miss Chicken Tikka Marsala with a somosa on the side. Sigh...LOVE. I can skip the rice NO PROBLEM and just scoop it up like soup, but even without the rice it's so high carb.0

I have not tried this but here's a recipe from Ruled.me. Every recipe I have gotten from that website is great.

BEER!! Luckily cheese, brats, and burgers are fine on keto (can you tell I'm from Wisconsin?
haha) But yes, I love beer. Sometimes I will eat super low or zero carb a day just so I can allow a beer or two and still hit my macros lol. I actually have Brewfest coming up in a couple of weeks, so ... I guess I better work out the details on how that'll work.

Thank you @bowlerae I'm definitely going to try this!0 -
I miss French fries and chocolate milkshakes... *wah*. Radishes do nothing for me and my plan is low fat enough that I can't have whole cups of heavy whipping cream without completely abolishing my macros.0

I hate participating in FB groups where they are so terrified of "protein turning into sugar" that new people post things like this. All. Day. Long.
I literally grabbed these screenshots as extreme examples within the first 20 posts on the page. There were other less extreme examples of utter confusion that is not the fault of the new person but the fault of the members because they say moderate protein when in fact they condone low protein.
This person thinks she's supposed to just start eating fat because this is what is heralded as a perfect day.
God help these peoples poor muscles.

Yep, I got kicked out of one of these Facebook groups because I told a poster that they should eat more protein and fat only til satiated. Even got PM'd a nasty message on my way out.2 -

I know there are ways of doing keto vegetarian...but I am so sick of being restricted with food in one way or another, I want to just BE. So yeah... just my own little internal dilemma. I rationalize it's my life and my health matters and I have to do what's best for my body.

I feel like my days are probably numbered.
An argument of various degrees of ridiculousness breaks out whenever I post anything even remotely pro protein. Even when I say "ignore these protein recommendations". Like when I shared the Ted Naiman graphics that are great visuals of what food to choose, with the woman in my previous mention, that didn't know what to eat. She thought she just needed to eat fat.
Then this other person still had a problem with me sharing it. She spouts out a specific suggestion with no reference and it's fine. I provide a suggestion with a reference and even say, just ignore that part, and it's a problem.
Sorry. I'll stop ranting now. This group makes me crazy because it's associated with a reputable low carb source but it's so full of garbage info.2 -

Most of them are, they just don't know it.

Here is what I don't understand - we have the majority of the medical community, the main stream media, the government guidelines and the general public all against us and these people think infighting is a good idea?4 -

My belief is that 99% of those who get offended fall into one of 2 categories:
1) They are trying to be offended (probably some kind of inferiority complex)
2) They are the ones who are intolerant of (fill in the blank) and so they assume everyone else is and therefore take everything in that context.
Therefore, I stay true to myself and the facts and don't concern myself too much with how someone else takes what I say. I don't try to offend anyone, but I also don't compromise my principals or bastardize the facts just to avoid offending someone.3 -

There may also be a category 3) Orthorexics, who are emotionally invested in a quasi religious, tightly-circumscribed system of healthy eating/living principles.2
