The bacon flavor is also pretty good.

Musubi is pretty great, though. I mean, just do an image search and it looks so good!

Hold on for a second. SPAM to me is a keyword associated with e-mail. I had no idea it may have meaning associated with food. I just googled. Is it that canned cheap ham thing that can be cut and consumed in sliced?

You'd never heard of spam (food)? I find that hard to believe.. I had known out that long before 'spam' had started to be used to refer to junk e-mail.
Also, I am old enough that SPAM meant the meat product before I ever learned what email was. If I had been born 15 or so years later, I may have learned about spam email before the product.

The pictures that came up when I googled it look like actual ham. SPAM

Krakus is canned ham, but perhaps higher quality product than SPAM if I consider previous comparison to "mielonka". both exist in plastic wrap and cans.
I believe SPAM is SPAM and I may find some analogies in my local products, but maybe not exactly the same thing at the end.

To loose weight, you need to have a net negative in total
calorie intake in good quality foods (whole foods, no processed
stuff). I used the BMI as a starting point. From that, I
determined the max daily calories to achieve the weight I
wanted to have. For me, it was 1800 cals per day, and that
worked out to about 100 cals per waking hour. With the per hour

Well, I would hope you don't continue to drink diet soda. Either do regular soda, or better yet no soda at all.

canned ham, but at a smaller size, so it would be more
affordable. It was also spiced and seasoned a bit more
heavily to cover the differences in the use of pork
shoulder over actual ham.
The reputation for being lower quality is mostly undeserved
as it's actually relatively high quality compared to other
sausages and deli meats, preserved (canned) or otherwise.

Not all diet sodas are the same. I'd imagine diet sodas with
stevia should be better for you, as stevia is a natural plant
extract.

Maybe, but if you do even a basic search on these artificial sweeteners,
you can find stories about all of them having bad/unpleasant side
effects. Hard to know what is true and what isn't.

Thank you, I just aquired it. The book will be read, and perhaps then I
may have some additional revelations.
soda is not a health food, so shouldn't be treated as such.
i dont think soda with sugar substitutes will be bad for you if you
have it occasionally as a treat. cooking your food on a grill and blackening it is far more dangerous, 'they' say.
yeah but sugar soda is empty calories.

I did low-carb for a while, and lost quite a bit of weight on it. If I
were living alone, I'd have stuck with it. I have a vegatarian, a picky eater and a lactose intolerant person in my house I'm cooking for,
sticking to a low-carb diet was challenging.

I think all of the artificial sweeteners are much sweeter than sugar -
at least I (and others) have noticed after not using them for a while.

yeah i'm drinking a diet pepsi and you're probably right.
but ah well, fuck it. -+-
Ah.. addicted to sugar. Drinking pop just keeps you there longer. :/
First thing I did was throw out all the white sugar that I had in the house. It was over 25 lbs in various forms: cubed, icing, granular, packets.
Prior to that it was very tempting to add a little dash of sugar even to an evening coffee or tea.

i lost a lot of weight and size doing low carb. i had a health scare<cut of the whole story>
that ended up being stress related. my mom died of covid on her
birthday during christmas time and i had to deal with her affairs and
her adopted kids, dogs, etc. I also left my job as an electronics tech
and my boss' right hand man.
here's the secret. you have to be ready. if you arent ready, you won't
get it done.
Is that the one that's known to cause cancer?
If you consume the equivolent of 80 gallons of soda a day, sure.
Is that something scientifically known, or just something you pulled out of your ....? well, you know.
I'm sure you can provide a reference showing that, right?

As an occasional meat product, maybe. But the regular long-term
ingestion of the nitrates are not good. One of the last canned
ham products I looked at had THREE different types of sodiums:
2 nitrates and 1 nitrite.
Bottom line for me is that non-diet ones that actually contain sugar are probably better/safer for you. If the few extra calories you might get from sugar in a soda is a deal-breaker for somebody, they've got significantly bigger problems than that.

I keep flavored stevia drops for that... usually a bit of
caramel or vanilla flavored with a bit of heavy cream.
Only have coffee a couple times a month though and avoid
caffeine more than a couple times a week.

Man... I read that and all I can say is that I really respect your story and I've got a lot of new sympathy to you. Hard to say more than just.. yeah (over all)!
aftertaste on the back of the tongue. If you have a SodaStream, you can use flavored stevia drops with that and it'll save a lot over the canned Zevia and other brands that are pretty pricey.

Worth noting that a single 12oz can of soda has the recommended limit on daily sugar intake for an adult male. Most people in the US get way behond that.

yeah, most people who are 'into' sodastream end up swapping for the same stuff beer brewers use. welding shops can refill tanks for really cheap, and then you carbonate a few 1 to 5 gallon tanks of whatever you'd like.
i had all the equipment for beer kegging and made root beer once. it was kind of nice, but it gets old having 5 gallons of it. kind of wish i had though of making rootbeer floats with it.. d'oh
man i looked that up. still expensive. especially the co2 bottles.
I got an adapter hose so I can hook up a regular CO2 tank, I have two 5# tanks they last about 6 months or so, if I used it regularly, would still last at least a few months.
Used to be a small brewer in Prescott that would make the max allowed of "real" rootbeer (sasafrass root) once a year, but last run they sold out in a day, and got calls for weeks after so they stopped. I don't think I could go through 5 gallons in any kind of reasonable timeframe. Let alone the sugar content.

They are expensive up-front, but if you buy carbonated water/seltzer/whatever in cans/bottles, you'll save a lot by moving to Sodastream - and create less waste in the process.
After the first canister, you're spending a fraction of what you would buying bottled/canned water.

Pepsi Zero sugar is the least worst of the Pepsi options. I drank one in
a pinch a few weeks ago at a taqueria.

i have 2 propane tanks, i'll give it a try with that, thanks.

The last time I really used a SodaStream was around 2017 or so, and I don't remember their CO2 bottles being that expensive. Maybe the prices have gone up since then.

Would definitely not use a propane tank for CO2 for anything you intend to consume.

No worse than caffeine or alcohol. Coca-Cola paid for a bunch of junk studies to get real rootbeer outlawed, when they had to remove cocaine from their recipe.
Thats for new bottles, you can exchange bottles for a filled one for about $15-17.
You should find a Hawaiian place (or maybe an asian food court?) and
have some spam musubi.
