    When you buy your favorite authentic tacos/awesome sandwich from a restaurant "to go" so you can go home and put it in a low carb wrap/bread.

    You squirrel away 5 Macadamia nuts in each cheek before you get out of your car at a school/church/charity/rotary/Harley banquet, and tell anyone who asks whether you wouldn't like some nice carb bombs from the buffet that you're fasting for a cholestetol test the next day.

    What a great excuse!!! **puts it in back pocket**

    When you spit out perfectly good bacon when you taste the sweetness of the applewood smoke! lol I almost shot the waitress a death look for not telling me but then I remembered that Carb-ers don't recognize the difference Lol

    Need you to explain. I eat applewood smoked bacon but the package still says 0 carbs.

    There are a lot of bacons with carbs because of the curing process. If you found one that has no brown sugar yay! I avoid applewood bacon and the like at restaurants because I don't trust the sugar content.

    I made cabbage rolls the other night for dinner - they were yummy but last night there were not quite enough left over for both Rowdy and myself. I warmed them up for him and decided that fat filled coffee would be a fine dinner for me. I handed him the plate and he looked at me with my cup and said "what are you eating?" I said this coffee. He said "that's all?" I said, I bet there's more fat and calories in my coffee than in your cabbage rolls, I'll be fine.

    Yep, that's how you know you are LCHF.

    When you buy your favorite authentic tacos/awesome sandwich from a restaurant "to go" so you can go home and put it in a low carb wrap/bread.

    I've heard you can order them all as sides if you wanted - ie two sides of ground beef, one side of lettuce, side of cheese, etc etc until it fits your macros. It works out to be cheaper that way too. Then ask for a bowl and toss all the sides in the bowl!

    When you go to a company do, there is nothing suitable for you to eat so you grab a strong coffee, pour in some coconut oil, sweetener, gives it a good stir, then request full fat cream from the waiters, pour some in, ignoring the stares from your colleagues and go on to enjoy your "lunch".

    You get stupid excited when the kids get meat and pickles for snack at work! (After recommending it for new menu ideas)
    It's even better when the cook delivers the classroom snack with a container of pickle juice!!

    Had the funniest conversation with that request...
    "Can you send me a container of the pickle juice?"
    Cook: "sure, you need it for a science experiment?"
    "Nah! I had a leg cramp this morning so I'm going to drink some then make pickle-sickles at home"
    Cook: "you know anybody else I'd question that thinking they were joking. You on the other hand... I know it's no joke. Do you want me to save the tub for you instead?

    I scored a five gallon tub of pickle juice!!

    Just a suggestion for the group, most fast food places go through their 5 gallon buckets of pickles pretty quickly. If you were to call and ask from time to time I am sure you could score plenty of juice... although you may have to bring a pitcher or container, because they reuse buckets many times (can you tell I work in fast food lol)
