turns out how not to be deficient in fat in your diet is to stop eating only low fat versions of foods

I hate it when the dining hall at uni very clearly invests in pork for a given week because then I can't fucking eat anything for that week

tfw u finally go to make urself a dinner plate and some nasty ass man walks into the kitchen, picks up the entire serving bowl of creamed corn and puts his filthy mouth on the bowl like it’s a giant cup and tilts it straight in. multiple times. 🙃

vegan moral opposition to leather is so fucking stupid like, listen, that animal is gonna be killed anyways, you are quite literally never going to convince everyone to stop eating meat/dairy/eggs/etc, and even if you somehow did it'd be ecologically disasterous, humans are an omnivourous species that can have a symbiotic relationship with the animals around them, but thats been fucked over by industrialisation, urbanisation, and capitalism, which are all things we can fix, instead of magically expecting most or all of the population to somehow abanon entire food groups that provide multiple nutrients and let both livestock and predator populations go wholly unchecked, which in turn will wreak havoc on agriculture and the ocean and the rest of the environment, so like if we're gonna be killing animals to eat them anyways, since its pretty damn important for us and them that we do at least sometimes, the fucking least we can do is use as much of the animal as is possible, which includes making leather out of it, which need i remind everyone is also far more sustainable and enviromentally concious than that microplastic pleather bullshit that barely lasts 5 years

WIEIAD ~

Baked sweet potato on buttered wheat toast and a dash of cinnamon

Crispy tofu with roasted summer squash and brussel sprouts topped with pesto hummus

Beans & rice with roasted chickpeas, fresh kale, and 1/2 an avocado

Mango and blueberry protein shake

I’m sure other people have done it before but I had never heard of sweet potato toast when I decided to try it! Been trying to get more vitamin A but I hate carrots and didn’t want to just bite into a big ass sweet potato. So, I smooshed it onto some toast! Highly recommend, reminds me of cinnamon toast my mom used to make for me before school.

The beans & rice is just a veganization of Chef John’s Best Beans and Rice + chickpeas and kale. And it truly is the best. Literally all I had to do is replace chicken stock with vegetable stock lol. Lunch was just breaded tofu (super easy) and frozen vegetables from Pictsweet Farms. The pesto hummus was left overs.

Lazy day of eating! Nothing fancy but still so good 😋

This isn’t specifically sports related but I follow a lot of Spanish motorsports professionals like Marc Marquez and they seem to have prawns or oysters a lot and I was wondering if seafood is a big thing in Spain or if it depends on what region you grew up in or maybe total personal preference. Also what are some all time favourite Spanish dishes or the most popular ones?

Hiii, anon! Seafood is absolutely a big thing in Spain, especially in coastal areas (which is a significant part of the country, bear in mind that Spain takes up most of the Iberian peninsula; so all sides of the country open up to either the Mediterranean, the Cantabrian sea, or the Atlantic ocean save for the corner where we border Portugal and the small border with Andorra/France). Also, this got long, so please check under the cut for a very detailed explanation of Spanish eating habits! (I got carried away 😂)

Fish and seafood are also a main component of the so-called “Mediterranean diet”! The following graphic is a good summary of how food intake is structured in Spain, and I can confirm that most middle-class and up people in the country do indeed stick to it (though it’s true that the crisis and increased poverty due to the recession have started shifting our food habits, but that’s a discussion for another day). This charter is exactly how I grew up eating at home as a kid, and how I still feed myself now that I live on the other side of Europe (old habits die hard!). Fun fact, we also had these types of charts drilled into us in school lmao, to “learn to feed ourselves properly”:

The general rule of thumb is to have at least 5 pieces of vegetables/fruits across all meals of the day, fish at least twice a week, poultry meats once a week, and red meats only a couple of times a month. But specific parts of the countty, notably the center planes and the Cantabrian region, follow slightly modified versions of this with higher red meat intake, due to the fact that cattle farming is a significant component of their regional economy. They also just have really good quality red meat, I always end up eating more red meat when I’m up north in Asturias visiting my family than I do normally hehe.

As to popular dishes, tough question! There’s too many of them and they vary from region to region haha. But some staples that are well-known across the entire country are potato omelet (the Vasque make really good ones), gazpacho (of Andalusian origin, the best, most refreshing thing to drink when it’s 45 celsius outside), paella (Valencian, do NOT make it with seafood. Authentic Valencian paella is made only with game meat, usually rabbit), and then we have good hearty stews like cocido (most popular variant is the Madrid one) and pote/fabada (from Asturias). Fish is eaten wide and far, but most of the time is cooked very minimally (just pop it in the oven with a drizzle of olive oil and some vegetables to roast).

I’m going to start posting what I eat in a day to keep myself accountable. Also I decided that veganism is something that aligns with the type of lifestyle and goals and like morality I want so I’m a vegan now (I started at the beginning of this month and it’s been okay since I don’t really cook meals for myself anymore anyways so I’m accidentally doing the whole raw vegan thing)🥂✨
