It's just that. I can taste the flour, oil, eggs, sugar....and I can tell you what kind of flour, oil, sugar and whatever else is used for the most part. With really well made and properly mixed batters it's harder. You'll never see me buy store bought baked goods simply because all I taste are the additives and cheap shit they use for it.Shut up Tarrant. You're not special!
Seriously though, you can taste individual ingredients in baked goods? What does that mean exactly? I mean, when I eat something I can tell you what seasonings and shit are in it, but I feel like you're talking about something a little further down the rabbit hole. Do tell!
I will sacrifice the forum mod pay to live the good lifeI suggest you both go on government disability and live the good life. Hell, Tarrant's already a moderator so he's halfway there.
Physically impossible, that's like saying... My genetics make me able to defy gravity. If you have a hormonal imbalance that is slowing your metabolism, then you might not be burning as many calories as a "normal" person... But you aren't burning more calories than you intake and still gaining weight.What about the "I eat 600 calories a day less than I burn, work out, and still gain inches in my waist" excuse? Fuck pituitary gland issues. Good news? I'm getting it taken care of, and my doctor has assured me that the pounds will melt the fuck off.
As for the beer thing, my friends call me a beer snob because I'm pretty picky about it. It's gotta be pretty damn good and smooth for me to be into it. I still remember the first time I had a Surly. It was a special brew called "The Bandwagon" that they only serve at Target Field where the Twins play. That thing I guess has even more of a hops taste than normal surly and I spit it out. lolI also order the hottest things on the menu just to try them. Never had the anus burning that all of my friends claim to have.
Also a super taster here, but I haven't had an actual study performed to get a measurement for my bitter sensitivity. I can't eat chocolate, coffee is insanely bad, beer is nearly intolerable, arugula is the devil's handiwork, etc.
No, salt blocks the receptor that detects bitterness. That is why supertasters eat so much more salt than normal people. Unless you pour it in like sugar, you won't taste salt at all. You'll taste coffee, without bitterness. Science!Great, then I taste bitter ass black coffee and then taste the salt separately on top of it. No thanks.
With you maybe it does.No, salt blocks the receptor that detects bitterness. That is why supertasters eat so much more salt than normal people. Unless you pour it in like sugar, you won't taste salt at all. You'll taste coffee, without bitterness. Science!
You could also be brewing coffee incorrectly, exacerbating the issue.
Sports forum.I'm about a month in trying to loose weight. Still not eating great but not eating near as much shit which is helping, along with the working out. I'm still hanging around 195 lbs but I look a lot better(IMO). Lost about 2" on my waist line (just estimating from wearing my belt comfortably 2 notches lower). My face looks noticeably skinnier as well. I'm fine staying at 195 as long as I gain some muscle and lose fat.
Later today is my legs, lower back, traps and shoulders workout that includes squats AND dead lift. Fucking brutal.
I think someone should make a workout thread so we can stop shitting up this thread with our gym activities.
