It is ironic that Americans are coming to Canada to eat massive meals ha. There are many places with super huge portions like the States...

When your dieting you eat the gum version instead of the real thing lol...
they smell exactly like Swedish Fish, but only a mild resemblance to the "yellow" flavoured gummy.

I don't buy meat in the US, but from what I have heard from other members and seen in my travels ... US is cheaper.

U.S. is cheaper. By far. Mexico it's basically free tho ha.

Makes perfect sense... It's cheaper in ca because the exchange rate is awful ha

I've had them before there the bomb! Initially you think there just decent but one of those things when you open the bag you can't stop eating them.... Could easily kill the whole bag. The more you eat them the better they get lol

it is called Portion Control and caloric control

instead of eating 10oz of rice and fatty beef/fish you could have a smaller portion of lasagna for carbs/fats.
or a meal out once in a while never hurt anyone.
Moderation is the key to success.

yep, I know :) and this is what I am going to do once there :) I was actually thinking to have breakfast with "crostata" also, instead of oats ha!

PS trust me, she will eat that and at least 2 more portions :P
 
Thats fine, what one eats varies from another person. at the end of the day we dont need to eat 6 times a day or 2 times a day, how one chooses to allot their calories, their portions, or meal frequency is personal preference.
Ones metabolism differs from person to person, their portions differ, their caloric intake differs. Too many factors to put into the equation
My dad eats cereal, mcdonalds, burger king every single day and is a stick too, but his portions are small, not massive, and not sucking down 1,000+ calories in coke. Just goes to show you that calories and portions make a drastic difference. Don't be jealous over others and what they eat. You choose to eat nothing but oats, rice, chicken, and fish, and choose larger portions, your wife may differ. It is your personal decision.

Agree 110% I was just joking, I'm happy for her she can eat whatever she likes :)

I choose to eat rice and oats cause I like larger portions yep :) I am also actually lucky, I can eat a lot of fats and stay the same while if I eat lots of carbs my body doesn't process it well, probably just cause as you said we all are different and metabolise differently all macros.

Thanks for the explanation tho, appreciated;)

Do you go to Trader Joe's when you are in Buffalo? Any issues bringing food over?
Click to expand...

There is not a Traders too close to where I will be in Buffalo.

However, I have brought TJs back from Ohio ...absolutely, no issue bringing food back to Canada. I buy ice cream in Michigan all the time lol. CBSA only really cares about cigarettes, alcohol and weapons. I have never been asked to provide receipts either, but I am pretty white so maybe I fly under the radar a bit. ;)
 
Picked up some Chex Mix Muddy Buddy Snickerdoodle flavor on a road trip this weekend...so delicious. Taste like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but better

I was quite surprised with Muddy Buddies. I picked up a bag of Target a while back, only because it was marked down. It was Cookies and Cream which is not one of my favorite flavors, but they were damn delicious.

I was in MI in June and saw Chex Mix Muddy Buddy for the first time and they looked good ... I grabbed PB & Chocolate and am now pretty excited! I may use them as a sludge mix-in.

You said "what should I cook?", not "what should I have for a cheat?" Which was my reason to question what type of food. Healthy and countable or not

Looks very basic. Not a dog guy myself either. And the burgers seem too simple to really go all out on. Maybe if they offer some serious toppings but otherwise eh. I wouldn't go out of my way for a place with just basic burgers/dogs

Looking at the menu it looks like a very typical American style joint.

Since you said they do crazy bid-ness I will assume the taste is better than the menu design and they do simple very well. I would go with the Grilled Chicken Deluxe (Chicago style) :)
Then go home and give me a review on the Graeters cinnamon Cheese Crown ;)

It is basic, but it is famous for its location Right on the peninsula. If you see the business this place does it is ridiculous. Line will be around the door.

No Graeters. tonight

Grilled Chicken Delux with Grilled Onions or Peppers?
Consider adding Bacon or Chili?

I was debating that chicken sandwich or the italian beef since i eat chicken almost everyday.

Gonna def grab some Onion Rings. They are to die for there.
 
Talenti Hazelnut Chocolate Chip:

If you are looking for a very creamy, chocolate, and crunchy offering Talenti basically perfected it with Hazelnut Chocolate Chip. Massive amount's of chocolate chips in every single bite, a hazelnut base with a small chocolate/nutella aftertaste, and legit chunks of hazelnuts thrown into the mix. There is a lot going on in each and every bite throughout this offering. With the surreal amount of mix-ins this placed right near the top next to Sea Salt Caramel in my opinion. I was very pleased with this and have no doubts I would offer or suggest this to anyone out there.

Grade: A-
