    Was it a gluten-free bug?

    Wow, that hadn't even entered my mind. @Tweaking_Time are you gluten intolerant? This opens up a whole new discussion on what not only what mosquitoes eat but any bug. They could of been in the wheat fields, a fly landing on a sandwich in the park.

    Whew... Tweaking, how are you feeling today? Sick to your stomach or doing OK? If you're not gluten sensitive that would make it easier you wouldn't have to worry where the bug had been before you decided to eat it for lunch. Yea yea I know you said it flew in your mouth but..come on I think we all know the truth.. somebody had a bet and you couldn't resist, so you ate the bug and won the money! How much did you get for munchin the critter? Crazy they didn't even let you chose what type you'd get to eat. It musta been a roll of bills!

    Well with all that loot now you can probably afford that beehive hood for biking threw swarms of gnats.
    But I can relate for eating a bug on a bet..

    Someone bet me a Cool Orange Jumpsuit ... I'd wanted one for so long so I agreed to eat a cricket pop for it.

    Here's a picture as you can see I was getting sorta bummed, it was really disgusting to be honest & I had to do it in certain amount of time or lose the chance to win.
    The orange jump suit, it was so worth it, :s or I guess I thought so at the time.. in fact I have it on right now..it's comfy to sleep in. :) I can't even remember how long I've had it now.

    Have you considered a face mask to prevent any further accidental bug eating? At least that way we can't assume you were simply trying to cheat on your calories.

    Anyone heard from Tweaking_Time since the 'incident'? I'm a bit worried, hoping there wasn't some sort of allergic reaction or that it ended up being a Yellow Jacket. :#

    Those things are high protein, but the come with a high calorie price, due to high body fat.

    Fat to protein to calorie ratio, do not recommend.

    Well as the story goes he 'accidentally' ate it... or at least that's what he claims. Though no one has heard from him in weeks. Unsure if he's in hiding because it wasn't accidental after all or if he's in the Contagious Bug Unit at the Mayo Clinic.

    Also wondering as I'm sure many of you have, if it flew in his mouth while biking and he ate it, was it a cheat meal or a high protein snack so he could go another 20 miles or so on his ride? B)

    Yeah, but the sting man, the sting. You see, it will take calories for the body to heal from the sting of the yellow jacket.

    Just reminded me of this



    What type of bug? Did you mean to swallow it or was it accidental? That would make a difference in how the cals would burn.

    According to the pop up summary, the OP was here on the 17th. So must be okay, unless that was a signal warning everyone to avoid surprise swallowing bugs. Maybe it was an alien bug who has taken control over the OP?

    I was out cycling and swallowed a bug. How should I log it?

    :#

    Idk man. I log my chapstick as a fat, but am a little concerned on how to log toothpaste. Carb maybe?
    @joshperson195 Is that your identical twin in your photo? He looks just like you! :D

    bees wax Did you log the protein? I was reading some also contain wheat and soy...so if you're eating the whole thing and have allergies... whoops!

    I found this:

    "I was really drunk last night and had like 2 chapsticks with me. when i woke up this morning both were empty and my mouth is all dry and tastes like that strawberry and cherry flavor. would this affect my macros for the day? "

    Wondered if they were biking?

    Did you actually eat the sticks? Like the guy above, were yours empty when you woke up from your drunken stupor? :laugh: Hm...because if you ate the plastic tubes they come in or the tins,
    I'm lost on how we'd even begin to count that for your food log. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    EDIT: Hm, unless someone else did the same and logged it in the database for you!
