    One of the reasons I don't do pre/post work out powders like the ones you mention is all of the ingredients in them. I do not eat 100% clean but I cannot make it right in my head to drink something that 99% of the ingredients I cannot pronounce.

    Take a chemistry class and youll be able to then.

    I think it's funny that people actually use ignorance as a justification to avoid something.

    People will use ignorance to justify anything nowadays. It's at a point where ignorance is actively encouraged, which I find very sad.

    Yep, bok choy is pretty good and we get at the CSA in the summer/fall and the supermarket in the other months. Inexpensive and easy to use.

    Seriously. A little garlic, a little ginger, a little oil and bam, you've got yourself some delicious bok choy for basically no work at all.


    And now I want some. Great.

    A little soy sauce and I'm with you; and if I have it, fresh ginger ideally. Yes, now I want sushi, bok choy', and some baby eggplant with brown sugar....dat gum it.

    Always fresh ginger. I'm not big on soy sauce though...

    But In for sushi. Nomnom

    My boyfriend's mother has a campaign going on about the flouride in Australian tap water.

    The part I agree with is the fact that the public never gets asked whether they want this stuff in their water.

    How about I just eat what I want to eat and die when my time is up...no one is going to live forever and I could eat clean for the next 2 days and then die in a freak accident where I get hit by a meteor and die. So, what difference does it make...

    Handy hint for you. Keep the ginger in a little bag whole in the freezer and just grate it onto your cooking. Works great and I always have some around. You don't even have to peel it either.

    I'm just saying that there's a trend of worrying about things that don't need to be worried about.

    Totally agree! But then, we'll run out of cool stuff to talk about here! And then what? We might have to go do other stuff?!? That just won't do. I'm clearly lurking on MFP to avoid doing stuff.. like sleeping or doing my taxes.
