it�s not houston or nola bad because it�s a few hundred more miles inland, but there is a reason all the marathons here happen in ian/feb instead of april/may.

if you did it in april or may you�d just have people dropping dead.

yeah one hack is to get acclimated to mile high denver and then exercise and train. its why a lot of the olympic camps, both summer and winter, are up here. then when you go down to sea level you're a hyper oxygenated monster

if it tastes good, but not quite "like" whatever it may just be the salt/acid/fat content. beans need enough salt to be palatable, under-seasoned beans just taste like meh, but once you get the salt they really come together. same with refried beans, not enough salt and it just tastes like bean paste, add enough salt and it tastes like refried beans. IMO hummus usually has a decent tang to it as well, so you need to add sufficient acid to get it there. then you also need enough fat to get the texture/mouth feel right, from the tahini/olive oil.

it's also a bit weird since blending the chickpeas hot can help with smoothness, but that will heavily bias the taste. i'd usually blend hot with garlic, then mix with the other stuff (salt, lemon juice, seasonings) until it tasted right. but it almost always tasted different after it cooled down.

Having lots of lead in your body allows you to survive higher levels of radiation which lets you get stronger super powers, obviously.

there's a bar here with a meat wheel of fortune you can spin to win sausages and I affectionately refer to it as "doing a meatspin"

When I had roommates one of them was a big meat head who kept an elliptical machine in my room

One day when he was doing a super long set and didn�t want to be interrupted I put meatspin on my computer and turned it way up and left.

Think he got 50 minutes of meatspin

According to the cook it was the normal recipe. A bowl of unpeeled chickpeas cooked with salt, some pepper added at the end. Also garlic, lemon, cumin, 2 tbsp of white tahine and a dash of gomasio. I think non peeled chickpeas give you meaner farts but :effort:
