    I was thinking of that guy/thread today because I saw Target had those huge bars again.

    Funnily enough, Snickers Ice Cream bars. Tops up my calories (180) at the end of a particularly active day when I'm a bit low but not hungry and it makes my brain happy. Plus, calcuim.

    You're going to get us accused of shilling for Mars corporation, big snickers, and big sugar!

    Yep its a strange concept to some.
    It goes like this -How could anyone enjoy a serving of candy and still meet their macros and calories ?! Geee ! They must work for a candy corporation and be trying to sell us candy !
    Yep. Seems legit. Lol !!
    But in reality, having a serving of candy can be part of a heathly well balanced diet.

    Great article which describes the situation perfectly: bodyrecomposition.com/nutrition/excluding-the-middle.html/

    Coca Cola.

    If you're an endurance athlete you'll probably already know it's one of the best recovery drinks out there (as long as it is paired with another item containing protein and sodium or just defizzed in place of an energy gel in the latter stages of an event*)...

    I don't know how interesting it is but when I've had an active day I like to end it with a healthy mix of peanut butter and maple syrup and a glass of red wine.

    hopefully you are drinking the red wine separately from the peanut butter/maple syrup mix. :wink:

    Nope. I mean, I don't drink the pb/syrup but I do drink the wine while eating it.

    PB and maple syrup is a great combo. Oh, and the wine too, of course.

    Ice cream

    No way does that look tasty to me !! This is one ice cream that I won't taste .

    That's fairly closed-minded considering your comment above about how small-minded people seem who don't accept that you like to cram junky sugar-laden dairy concoctions and how wondefully balanced it all is.

    Open your mind, you might actually try something different than what Mars Corporation is paying millions to tell us to enjoy.

    I could live on these.

    Twix ice cream bars are better...FWIW...

    PB goes really good with pumpkin butter...

    No doubt. And apple butter. And honey.

    I hadn't ever considered PB and maple syrup. Going to have to try that one.

    Just kidding, I'm sure it's lovely - if you like pumpkin! (I don't like it.)
