Critique My Ultimate Anabolic Grocery List

[AmericnMuscle]

Let me know how the grocery list looks and feel free to make any additions or substitutions. I look forward to hearing what you ladies and gentlemen think.

Are you seriously buying all of that? I hope you have a big fridge.

[mrSlate]

Holy ish thats the whole frigin grocery store 1 of each!

[AmericnMuscle]

I'm going to attempt to purchase most of it, but I highly doubt I'll be able to pick up everything. I do have somewhat of a limited budget and I have an average sized fridge. Nothing spectacular.

I noticed that no one has made any suggestions so I'm assuming that the looks of it is alright?

Sort of , because you named pretty much every food that is pretty healthy Try and get nitrite-free deli meats, and go easy on the bacon Also look carefully at the energy bars, you might be better off making and freezing your own.

[fieldt76]

umm... you named every food in the universe. thats a fact

[Sinon]

Kinda a lot of fruits bro, id say just pick 3 or 4 of your favorites. Not only do you not need that many, half of it will go bad before you can eat it. Otherwise it looks pretty badass.

[WhatsaRoid?]

Thats a nice list, it makes me want to buy a bigger firdge and go shopping. When you do end up going let us know the outcome or total from the purchase. It would also have been a lil better to only include what exactly your purchasing instead of everything in the world you'd want as by doing this there isn't much fun in critiquing.

But one things for sure I'm printing your list out and highlighting the things I need to pick up, I tend to forget a lot of crap when I go. Reps!

[manny1010]

that is a lot of food!!!!!!!!

[allstar504448]

dump the sugar free kool aid, it contains aspartame and maltodextrin

[ccapone1153]

But one things for sure I'm printing your list out and highlighting the things I need to pick up,

now that is a good idea!

cut out bacon and all pork products. pork is not good for you and bacon has sooooo much fat (the bad kind) stick to only turkey bacon if you need bacon.
you are missing cottage cheese (unless you don't like it)
otherwise looks very good to me

[soontobbeast]

100% fruit juice isnt good. it will have alot more dramatic of an insulin response than regular fruit.

[itzgambino]

the v8 i think should be trashed, your better off just eating the fruits/veggies instead of drinking that because I believe they still add some stuff. Also, why not buy the beans raw and cook them yourself, they are cheaper raw and you'll get much more for your money!

[JasonblkZ06]

I'd skip the Splenda, soy milk, and sherbet myself as well as get low sodium V-8. Looks good for the rest of it. I agree with the raw beans suggestion - better and cheaper.

according to fridge space and (subjective) importance/personal preference, i shortened the list.
red = bye
green = buy

Guys, not to be a killjoy (as the thread is obviously great for discussion purposes), but he OP posted this in March for one thing.... and he's banned... so I doubt he is getting all of this good information =)

Lucky!
