I wish there were great options for vegetarian and local food in the winter here, but that generally implies a diet of hydroponic lettuce, greenhouse tomatoes and cucumbers, and then roots like onions, potatoes and carrots. The one local fruit available is apples. The rest is many varieties of meat. I guess we're starting to have a bit of province-made tofu at least, so it's gonna get a bit easier, but eating local has forever been putting you on the grandchild of depression-era foods.

adding salt to food, compared to with that our taste senses generally evolved to deal with, along with adding fats and sugars, will encourage most people to over consume

if junk food was bland, we would eat less of it, and it would be less bad for us because of that a sad reality is that if you want to lose weight a very good approach is to make your food taste much more ordinary

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:Wordy way to say “people eat more food if it tastes good” yeah so the takeaway message is that claiming that the sodium and preservatives in junk food is fine totally misses the point, falling fallacy to food reductionism what matters is the epidemiology. to a population : add salt to foods. result : likely-undesirable weight gain

i thought junk food was so called because it was high in sugar/salt/fat and low on fibre, protein, and micronutrients but when i think about it for more than 2 seconds (rare for me) it’s one of those nebulous terms that is abused to make whatever point you need at the time

mystes posted:Just make everyone permanently lose their sense of smell. You could probably eliminate the obesity epidemic overnight. even though almost all of our taste is really smell, the actual basics that our lizard brain listen to don’t require our nose. not only can we taste the salt sugar and fat immediately in our mouth, we also have sensors in our tum tum that can sense a few things like high caloric content and can make the brain associate the food with huge dopamine rewards since our brains use chasing dopamine to help us work out what to do with ourselves, if our brains know a big dopamine release is coming up if we eat mcdonald’s (for example), well our actions are primed. the dopamine release is proportional to the food reward, which is more than a mammal usually ever has access to, and we become very incapable of regulating our consumption of these foods if you found a choc bar on the street one day and ate it, the next day you walk down the road your brain is already primed looking for another choc bar if brain knows mcdonald’s gives dopa, well then when i need to drive from a to b my brain immediately lets me know what’s mcdonald’s i can go past on the way there, since mcdonald’s has placed itself everywhere and so my brain has dozens of primes to get dopa from the clown

It's pretty common to have cask ales in lots of pubs, and a lot of it is really good My local pub (The Victoria in Bethnal Green) always had a couple of goodies. And there were like 4 pubs in walking distance that had great british cask ales or craft beers on tap. I would agree that the highest-volume of beer drank is probably a czech or german lager/pilsener of some kind tho It took me a while to get a taste british cask ale but now I generally prefer it. thankfully craft beer has had a bit of a moment in NZ too so its not just hyper-fizzy ice-cold "ales" and lagers anymore
