Avocado and spinach are both fucking rank and have no business being on the same plate as bacon.

Someone the other day was talking about putting salad in sausage baguette in the staff room.

Staff from the other side of the room shouted 'wtf'

Well, perhaps salad wouldn't fitt the bill, but more like tomatoes, bell pepper, pickled stuff, just anything to offset the sausageness

Jeezuz. Processed meat and sugar sauce.
I have the lower sugar ketchup in my sausage sarnies. And i have it once every now and then. Not every day.

And only good quality 80% plus meet content sausages. But apparently you want to demonize things that a lot of the country like to feel superior. Again. Sigh

Most of the country is obese or overweight. So clearly, most of the country knows fuck all about food.

Don't get me wrong. Junk food tastes great. But the British have a childish Iwant!Iwant!Iwant! relationship with it. You only have to look at how bacon is literally deified.

It's not demonisation of anything to feel superior - your reaction is that of a child who doesn't like what he wants getting bashed.

Its not because they dont know about food..its sedentary lifestyles and cheap high calorie food.
Everyone knows they are overeating..but it tastes so good.

Interesting, the study you quote appears to be using BMI as a way to classify people as overweight or obese. I'm sure you're also well aware that BMI is a horrendous measure to classify people by. So whilst I have no doubt Britain could be healthier, I also doubt more than half the country "knows fuck all about food".

We are a country that likes rugby and girls with big knockers after all, both of which groups stand a good chance of being classified as overweight.

I'll happily admit I'm not a foodie, and favour high calorie "shite" as it means I have to eat less of it to get the energy I need to function. However in my experience I'm the exception rather than the rule.

Says every lazy fat biffer in the world, everywhere.

BMI covers 95% of the population perfectly well. You even rolled out the old tropes of rugby players not fitting BMI. Which it was never designed to do.

But aside from all that shit - *you* brought up BMI specifically (I just threw a link in). Wholistically eating cheap shit, being sedentary, yadda yadda yadda.

Don't know why I'm interacting with you on this. You've set your stall out clearly ages ago...

Used to think that myself @Job. But I don't eat any of that "bad shit" any more - and my tastes changed really quickly so if I do eat it (say I'm round my family and they get a pile of junk takeaway in) then I now realise it's f00king awful.

The idea that I don't stuff my face with chips and cheap burgers blows some people's minds. It *really* upsets some people. I don't evangelise when I'm not on the forum - if I'm out with a group of people and order the healthy thing (because I like it) there's almost always someone who kicks up a fuss and tells me how I'm missing out.

Thing is, I'm not missing out. At all. I've eaten that shit for years. They're missing out.

Edit:
Was out on my ride yesterday and pulled into a really great pub on the high peak trail. It was rammed with e-bikes and fat couples tucking into fish and chips and burgers before they motored off. The (women mostly) were moaning how hard it had been riding the 15 flat motor-assisted miles from Middleton Top to the pub and how it justified their epic meals - before motoring off.

Now, their burgers and fish and chips are pretty good. But I still chose this:
And why wouldn't I? It was gorgeous:

Although, I will admit, the pesto looks like a goose has shat on it...

What stall? The postion that you seem to have found a horse with exceedingly long legs to ride on.

Plus, I mentioned BMI as it's the entire basis of the study that the article you used to back up your incredibly tedious point about how much better you are than everyone.

You utter spanner.

Lets see. How can i talk about this subject without you getting personal and implying things that I have not said.

I like a fresh salad. And i dont throw loads of dressing on them usually. A bit of salt and vinegar is fine. Been filling my plate with it most of this summer. Lots of veg straight from the farms via the local farm shop here.

Processed meat can range from cheap rusk and fat filled bloated with fillers to good quality 80% plus meat content. So labelling an entire broad range of products junk is not right.

Can get some great burgers which are low in fat high in protein and all. And you get get some god aweful ones which work out 20p each or something. You get what you pay for.

I wouldnt criticise you if you chose what you did for your lunch. Its like a standard tomato mozzarella thing. Nothing unique. Im glad it makes you feel better abut yourself :).

But the world is made of all sorts of people and if we all did the same it would be very boring.

In terms of bacon and sausages, no matter how much "meat content" there is - the additives are carcinogenic. The meat itself? No problems, but bacon and sausages aren't good for you.

In moderation? Well, define moderation. Then it's all good :)

The sausages they talk about are the preserved ones like chirizo and such not the english meat and rusk and herbs and spices ones. The nitrates they talk about are not in the british sausages or burgers. Its used in the preserving of meat. Including bacon.

Bacon yes according to that research. But it didnt stop you putting lads of in on your brekky the other morning ;)

And as long as you know that for example in that article it raises your chance of bowel cancer from 5% in your life time to 6% if you have two rashers of bacon every day then you can make a choice. As you did for brekky.

Went to Rivington Pike only to find it was still closed off from the fire and there was an Ironman challenge going on..all the roads blocked for the bikes.
So we found a few open trails..but ended up being blocked to get back to the van.
Joined the competitors on their carbon road bikes for a mile long steep ride back to it..hilariously we sped past them on the hill on our e mtbikes..quite a few lost their shit calling us cheats...
Seriously did they think we were competing or if it even matters, what are Ironmen even for?
Its a personal challenge is it not.
Great day though the atmosphere was awesome.
