    Well look at that....it contains all nine essential amino acids...it's a complete protein!

    Yeah, and he hit that setup pitch right out of the park. :)

    I sense Snickers are become trendy around here.

    (Also, if you want a Snickers, don't eat the Marathon bars. You'll wish you'd eaten a regular Snickers instead.)

    Following this sub-meme further...a typical gorilla is over 250 pounds, of which 150-200 is lean body mass. I read somewhere a silverback can benchpress somewhere around 1000 pounds(!) so these are seriously muscular beasts.

    Their diet is about 65% fruit - ie, very high carb. Amazing how they can build all that bone and muscle on "bananas"!

    Don't humans have a strong genetic link to gorillas?

    Indeed my comment was spice specific simply because it was a response to a filler in spice comment. Nothing more intended.

    Nope not a locolvore but I dig the term. ( never heard it before ). I am just a fat guy who cooks as a hobby and likes to buy as much stuff as I can from small local farmers which are abundant around here.

    Okay. I probably lost track of the thread in question at some point.

    I like a lot of that stuff as a hobby too. For me one of the benefits is that it makes eating healthy fun.

    perimeter shopping: coincidence that windex, laundry detergent etc are on the perimeter as are the ice creams, frozen goods etc.

    I'm sure that theory will work very well.
