    Hi Dave,
    On <Sat, 16 Aug 24>, you wrote me:

    How are you on yoghurt? I keep the mini-fridge in my confuser room
    well stocked with 4 oz cups of low/no fat yoghurt w/fruit. The labels
    15 g of protein in each snack-sized serving. IOW 1/2 oz protein per
    cup.

    I can eat it. Dairy is what keeps me alive. Laugh. I can't think of the name of it right now, but the dispatcher at work Husband is a long haul driver so
    he gets a yoghurt for us all that has more protein then anything sold here
    in Canada when he's down south. It could be that one at 15g... I'll check
    when I go back to work. (If any in the fridge)

    I dunno if McDuck's still offer this - but it used to was one of my favourite snacks from there ....
    Title: McDonald's Yogurt Parfait

    They had it for a while, I'm not sure if they still do either, I haven't been there in quite a while. Other then a quick stop some times for egg
    mcmuffin. (The seagulls enjoy the ham as it's cheaper to get the ham
    then it is to ask to not get the ham)

    I argued with BK a few weeks ago, I went it to grab lunch for a co-worker
    (Jr. Cheesburger and onion rings - did not want a drink). It was $5 plus tax for the combo (special) or $8.75 without the drink. I could not convince them to just not give me the drink. So I took the cup from them, gave it to the next
    person who walked in and left.

    What argument?

    The manager follwoed me into the parking lot yelling at me. I'll never go back.

    I really like the fruit-on-the-bottom stuff. Although the blended is
    OK. One of my favourites is a blended chocolate & raspberry yoghurt.
    The stores seem to have trouble keeping it in stock. So, apparently I'm
    not the only one who likes it. Bv)=

    I don't go to McD's much since their prices have gotten so inflated. I
    used to like their Sausage & Egg McMuffin. And the breakfast burritos.
    But, heck. I can go to a sit-down diner for what the snatch & grabbit
    goes for these days.

    I argued with BK a few weeks ago, I went it to grab lunch for a
    co-worker (Jr. Cheesburger and onion rings - did not want a drink). It was $5 plus tax for the combo (special) or $8.75 without the drink. I could not convince them to just not give me the drink. So I took the
    cup from them, gave it to the next
    person who walked in and left.

    Was that their $5 "Have It Your Way" deal Isee on their signs? I got
    into a similar situation at a sit-down. A group of use were having our
    Sunday breakfast meet-up and I had ordered a meal that came with coffee.
    Since I have had my limit on coffee before I leave the house I gave my
    coffee to a friend whose budget was tight. The waitress jumpmed in my
    sh...tuff about it. Finally I told here "Listen you old trout. It came
    with my meal - which makes it mine. If I want to gift it to someone it's
    no business of yours."

    We never went back there until the ownership and staff had changed.

    What argument?

    The manager follwoed me into the parking lot yelling at me. I'll never
    go back.

    What you could do I look at their "vitals" posted on (or near) the entrance
    and rat him out to his higher ups. It's a retail customer-service business
    and that sort of behaviour is frowned upon. Seriously frowned upon.

    also no longer going to that BK. It sucks because it's right across the street from work. :)

    When I was working in Greeneville, there was a McD's on the main highway
    owned by a franchiseethat was open to midnight and a McD's in town that was
    a company store that was open 24/7. The highway was on the very north end
    of town.

    I would drive out of my way to go to the downtown location. Food was
    better, employees were nicer, and a better overall experience.

    Singles is what I buy. 150g cup (5.3 oz) 80 calories, 15g protein and
    ZERO fat. It's sweet but not tooth-achingly so. Helps me to do just two
    meals a day by snacking on something both tasty and fairly healthy.

    Went to the croaker yeaterday as a follow-up on my back problems and he
    was please that I had dropped more weight and my A1C was below 6. If I
    keep this going I'll soon have to run around in the shower to get wet.

    I already have to buy new trousers - bought small si I can "shrink" in
    to them. Bv)=

    I pretty much gave up on BK when they "re-made" the Whaler (fish) sandwich that they had in the 1970s. Then Long John Silvers and Captain D's (fats
    fish places) came to town and I didn't miss thew Whaler nearly so much.

    Nice, I would have gone out of my way for better service / experience
    as well.

    When I was able to do that, I would. Heck, I'd drive 90 minutes south and
    over the mountains to go to Asheville, NC, to get all of my shopping done. They have stores that we don't have (and probably never will). They treted
    me really nice down there.

    Title: Greek Christmas Bread
    Categories: Diabetic, Vegetarian, Breads/bm
    Yield: 15 Servings

    1 pk (or 1 tablespoon) Active Dry
    -Yeast;
    1/4 c Warm Water (110 to 115
    -degrees)
    1/3 c Sugar;
    1 ts Ground Cardamom;
    1/4 ts Salt;
    1 Egg;
    1/4 c Milk;
    1/4 c Vegetable Oil;
    1 1/2 c Whole Wheat Flour;
    1 c All-Purpose Flour;
    1/4 c Golden Raisins;
    1/4 c Walnuts; chopped

    Keywords: Ovo-Lacto

    Dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Combine the sugar, cardamom,
    salt, egg, milk and oil in a large bowl. Mix well. Add the yeast
    mixture, flours, raisins and nuts. Mix well. Add enough extra flour
    to make soft dough. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and
    knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Shape into a round
    loaf.

    Put the dough into a lightly-oiled 8-inch-round cake pan. Cover with
    a damp towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk,
    about 1 hour. Bake in a 350-degree oven 35 to 40 minutes, or until
    brown.
