What is the difference between normal bacon & Canadian? As I am keto (8yrs) I’d love this. Not sure what cauliflower sandwich thins are either but guess we don’t get them in the UK where I am at the moment and definitely not in Cape Town where I usually live if it wasn’t for covid.0 -

You may think of Canadian bacon as normal bacon.

Quick lunch update: I split a burger and a salad with my BFF at the local pub. The food was mediocre, verging on bad, but the company was great and I left plenty of room for pizza tonight! I'm considering this a serious win in my ongoing "just be normalsauce about food" endeavors. I usually panic about sharing food ("what if there's not enough, what if I'm still hungry, what if the other person eats all the good parts"), and I tend to obsess over subpar meals ("that wasn't GREAT, it wasn't AMAZING, what's the POINT if it's not MAGICALLY DELICIOUS at EVERY MEAL," etc.), so to split a subpar meal, shrug, and live with it is a major turning point for me.
I get that too!! I feel really bummed and anxious if I eat a meal and its not great, and I obsess over it. My boyfriend cooks a lot and sometimes chooses things that I don't necessarily hate, but I'm like why bother eating this, it isn't my favorite and this will be what I have to deal with until the next meal. Need to work on being "normalsauce" (love that) myself.1 -
