I will not eat Reese's Pieces for lunch, rather than eating Chickpea Rice and Squash leftovers. While the first would make me have fewer Reese's, it's the sheer volume of the Chickpea Rice and Squash that makes it leftovers. If I do not eat it now, I will never eat it. If I never eat it, that's $26 out the window. I must eat the Chickpea Rice and Squash, despite having had it for dinner on Friday, lunch on Tuesday, and the probability that I will have it for lunch on Friday, unless it freezes again, which just means I need to turn the refrigerator temperature up.
On a related note, flour-free bagels suck. I keep expecting to see the miracle of plant-life happening in my "sprouted-spelt" bagel. I'm never going to the hippie-mart for bread products again, never mind that I happen to be there at the time. They do not sell flour-based bagels, and I like flour almost as much as I like meat.
Flour-free bagels, when you don't have a restrictive food allergy, are a bit like being mugged at gunpoint for a nickel.
And I think it's the spelt bagels that made me even consider that someone reading this might have a food allergy to wheat. Shoot me, I can't hatefully generalise anymore.

most vegan breads sit in your stomach like a pound of lead too.
Just eat your fluffy bread and be happy. :D
From:

Never again. They do feel like a pound of lead, and I keep thinking I'm going to see a spelt-farm in action if I leave them long enough.

No eggs, no honey, no dairy.
Some hardcore vegans will eschew anything baked with yeast (because, umm. it's ALIVE when it's BAKED and that KILLS IT, man!!) but whatever.

I'm sorry, I try to be tolerant on even-numbered days, but you could argue that they should kill themselves since undoubtedly they're killing MILLIONS of life-forms similar (in terms of complexity) to yeast every time they breathe...or drink a glass of water...or walk anywhere...
November 26th, International Yeast-Mourning Day.

yeah, yeast mourning indeed.
It's already buy nothing day today.. but let's mourn the yeast as well!

Heehee! That's awesome.
And I know someone who has an allergy to glutens -- she'd get sick all the time and everyone just assumed she was bulemic. It was years before they were correctly diagnosed.
Personally, I am glad that I have no food allergies whatsoever, and am celebrating that fact by trying to eat as many different species as possible.
From:

I do have a couple allergies/sensitivities, but not to wheat. Never to wheat, god willing.
Next on my list of species to eat is rattlesnake. I hear it's good.

On the way back up, not so much.
Try alligator. Tastes like chicken.
Hmm.
Maybe it was fed chickens.

Okay I take two questions from your entry above:
(1) What the HELL is sprouted spelt?
and
(2) Why on earth would any sane person buy $26 worth of chickpea-anything?
;-)
From:
no subject
And the $26 included the olive oil and cumin that I had to buy to make the stuff. Come to that, it included toothpaste and napkins. It'd be a cheap dish to make if you had olive oil and cumin on hand, but that was $12 of it right there, with just those two things. The napkins and toothpaste probably added another five.
From:
no subject
Well I certainly hope you didn't add the napkins and toothpaste to the mixture.
Although come to think of it, they might have been better than chickpeas... O_o;
