Bacon!
Confusion over bacon calories....My Walmart Great Value Bacon says 190 cals for 2 slices...but my Schniders bacon shows 35 calories (after being fried and drained) for a piece....Would most of the calories from the bacon be lost in the fat that renders out? Which one do I trust?

Grr...nightshifts and binge eating
Working a 2 day, 2 night, 4 off schedule...I can't seem to stop myself from eating when I'm working overnight. I try to bring healthy food at night, and have to skip dinner to enable myself to have enough calories for overnight, but always find myself walking over to the snack table for 'a little something' which never…

Mapleine
Have any of you tried Mapleine maple extract from Mccormicks? I used to be able to get in up here in Alberta, but can't seem to find a Canadian supplier anymore. I've called Mccormicks and they dont' ship to Canada at all anymore...which seems hard to believe since our local Walmart carries all their spices.... I'd hate to…

Hobbies
Why oh why did I take up chocolate and candy making as a hobby before I started using MFP?!!! :) My kids love it but I find it a little difficult to keep my snoot outta the finished product containers at the end of the day... First it was coconut joys....then the double chocolate nougat...a couple weeks ago it was a toffee…
