Title: Most labor-intensive foods to eat...
Post by: RacerX on October 23, 2013, 04:21:17 PM
Goddam these roasted/salted sunflower seeds!!

I've been eating them for half an hour and am now in a caloric deficit—and I thought pistachios were bad...

What are your picks for foods that meet the description in the thread title??

A really hot curry, when your sweating and your mouth is on fire and you have to dare yourself to carry on ;) good times...

I always say, the harder something is to eat, the tastier it is...

Spag Bol
An over filled burrito/fajita
Langoustines/king prawns/mussels
Artichokes
Corn on the cob

Is there some other way?

I suppose I could have just swallowed them, hulls & all, but that's way too much salt for me (& I love salty foods).

you gotta be kidding me.  take a small handful, throw 'em all in yo mouf, transfer to one cheek.  extract one at a time with teeth/ tongue, crack open with teeth, separate seed meat from shell with tongue, chew and swallow seed meat, spit out shell (without excess saliva).  repeat.  that's why they call sunflower seeds "spits"

Gott figure the unshelled sunflower seeds/pomegranate diet would be brutal.

hickory nuts. low-yield wild-collected stuff like wild bean. small animals with tiny bones. wasp and ant brood.

re: shell-in sunflower seeds: there's an incisor-to-incisor bite technique that cracks the seeds that wouldn't necessitate consuming all the salt. only your fingers and teeth need to touch the shell. faster than thumbnails.

non-red lentils.  takes fucking forever and lots of concentration to completely separate a pound of them from rocks, dirt clods, tiny pieces of glass, etc.  where the fuck are they growing this shit?

Title: Re: Most labor-intensive foods to eat...
Post by: deleted account on October 25, 2013, 08:57:24 PM
that's just it, I don't have a problem eating ribs.  takes like half a second to wipe my face every few bites, and then I wash up after.  whoooooo!  laborious!

Jesus fucking Christ you fucking mongoloid. Leave me alone. When I eat ribs and such I have to shampoo my beard and pick my teeth for a fucking hour. Very labor intensive you fucking mongoloid.

Haha! You guys are funny...

What in satans hell kind of lentils do you buy that they come clogged up with rocks and glass!!? Wtf! Here you can just buy a nice clean bag of em for a pound, no glass or rocks....
Title: Re: Most labor-intensive foods to eat...
Post by: deleted account on October 26, 2013, 06:47:48 PM
in my experience it's the same whether you get 'em pre-packaged or organic bulk- you're gonna find on average 5-10 lentil-sized rocks/ dirt clods per lb.  usually some barley grains too.  glass rarely but it happens
