One of these, though it was a limited edition chocolate/banana flavour.
Not bad.
Probably broke my diet...but that's ok, otherwise pretty light day.

For lunch I had some lime flavoured tuna in a mixed salad of kale, cabbage, carrot, beetroot, threw in a little herbal salt.

After gym I drank some small vanilla flavoured protein drink thing - I find it fills me up enough to not worry about food after gym, and it's meant to be good for recovery, so I've found it at least makes the delayed onset pain a little less annoying.

I don't get the idea of this question

Well, back under my other name, I'm actually the guy that started this thread way back - it's not the first iteration of it either...can't recall if it was me that created the first one but as you'll see it's kind of a long standing thread.

I can only give you my version of what the idea was.
I like food. I like cooking, preparation and sharing food with family and friends.
I've tried some pretty interesting things, and I've done my fair share of studies on the subject matter both officially and at home.

For me, the sharing part was what it was about - if I could show someone how to make something or say "Hey, I just had this, try it" kind of thing, I just got a personal satisfaction from it I guess. Can't say why.

Exchanging ideas, and recipes at times...just fun for me...and I find it valuable too, I've seen and tried a few things mentioned in this very thread, not to mention it's kind of like when people talk about older movies, sometimes I've thought "Mannn, I haven't had that in ages, I could really go for some".

I think that it's a topic that resonates with a lot of people, from those that work in the industry, to those that make instant noodles.
Not to mention, it's kind of something that I personally come back in to here and there, even when I'm not too frequent a member any more, I like to keep it updated and check it out, sometimes it gives me reason to post when I don't have too much else to say - because I find it easy, and maybe even soothing to talk about.

Anyhow, I suppose that was the idea behind the question, or ideas as it were.
I'm sure everyone has their own means and motives for contributing, and if that keeps this old thread alive I encourage it.
So welcome.
I'll say that in this thread, where you'll likely see me most.

Can I just say I miss cheap-ass packaged ramen?! I used to devour that crap, but the sodium count keeps me away these days. I know it's not gourmet food...or even edible to some, lol..but I miss my damn cheap-ass packaged ramen!

I know a lot of people that buy the ramen and throw away the seasoning packet and use their own.

I personally quite like going into asian supermarkets,
(I don't know what they're like wherever you guys are at, but here, they're massive and awesome)
and picking up random instant noodles.
Can be very hit and miss, but the "good" ones, make the western made instant noodles just seem like so much blech.
Though I am kind of guilty of stocking up these noodles and seldom actually eating them. I always think, yeah, theyre cheap. I might need them at some point...a lot end up getting thrown out.

I remember as a child, I used to regard instant noodles, even just standard beef/chicken flavours, as one of my favourite things to eat.

I've actually been having a bit of a crazing for broccoli and choy sum, I will probably go pick a bit up tomorrow, lightly steam or blanch it with some finely sliced garlic and put a few spots of sesame oil and chilli soy on there.

I've considered trying that, but then I couldn't complain about not being able to eat cheap-ass ramen anymore.

Having some instant decaf...I usually only drink "good" coffee, "real" coffee...but the wife keeps this in the house and I didn't feel like tea.
It's an organic one, and as far as both instant and decaf goes, it's surprisingly tolerable.

I am reheating my heathy breakfast of some pizza hut pizza I froze about 2 weeks ago. Something with chicken and pineapple on it.
