I heard a while back that Pei Wei was now serving cauliflower rice and I’ve been interested in trying it. They also have a cauliflower fried rice, which sounded great! I’ve made cauliflower fried rice before, so it sounded like a best of both world type restaurant item. I figured it would be high and … Continue reading Look Before You Eat – Pei Wei

Black Listed Food – Erythritol
I made a mistake yesterday that I am paying for today. I had a gift card that was expiring, so I wanted to use the last $2 on it. I stopped at a gas station, in a hurry, and grabbed a Bai “Narino Peach Supertea.” I will take the blame for not reading the ingredients … Continue reading Black Listed Food – Erythritol
Black Listed Foods: Movie Theatre Popcorn
I managed to delete this entire blog, so until I am able to write it over…. They’re way worse than you imagine, especially if you get that fake “butter topping stuff” like me!
Black Listed Food – Chick-Fil-A
Chick-Fil-A, I’m afraid it’s time for our unhealthy relationship to end…We got in a major fight back in 2012 when you took the words out of the Christian music that’s playing in your stores. That made me sad, but I was able to get past it. I didn’t even mind this year when you discontinued … Continue reading Black Listed Food – Chick-Fil-A

However, removing the offending cheese … Continue reading Black-listed Food – Dairy

I probably don't need to tell you that beer is caloric, contains grains, and as a result, helps people acquire additional abdominal fat. You … Continue reading Black-Listed Food – Alcohol
Diet Coke
I've been needing to add this to my black listed foods for a while, but it's so easy to let the addiction creep back in. I'm back on the wagon again and hopefully I will be able to stay away from this horrible stuff. If not, I'll certainly feel the burn when I drink it … Continue reading Diet Coke
Black-Listed Food: Protein Bars
RIP Date: 3/1/2017 I previously felt that protein bars were healthy; like even diet-worthy. I ate a variety of them, but my favorites were the Zone Perfect Chocolate Peanut Butter bars. Other ones I ate regularly were Nature's Valley Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate bars and Fiber One Peanut Butter bars. Are you sensing a theme here? I've … Continue reading Black-Listed Food: Protein Bars
