Who else eats cup-o-noodle soup? I've been eating that at lunch daily for like three weeks and I've actually lost like 8 lbs becuase it's filling but not many cals.

My lunch options are limited to what I can fit in a lunch box that doesn't need to be heated...which basically leaves sandwiches and snacks. I usually have to eat on the move. We're usually in the woods somewhere or on the road. Ah, the life of a forester!

[omegafiler]

Eh, not a big soup person. But I did have a tasty turkey sandwhich for lunch today! That was quite good.

[Pete95Sierra]

I've been out of college for a year and a half now, and I still eat ramen from time to time. I know it's like eating a bowl full of carbs and salt, but it's still good...and you can't beat that 12 cent price!! haha

[Steve]

I had three things of soup at work today and about 10 diet cokes. Ended up working crazy like 11 hours, got some McDonalds on the way home. Love the Double Cheeseburger.

Anyone done any tests? Do you get more meat if you get a couple of Double Cheeseburgers vs. any other burgers that cost more money? The Double Cheese is only $1.00 here.

[GoFastPadre]

Well I still live up to my nickname Big Un' Iwork nights so my eating habits are wacked anyway. I generally eat twice a day, When I get off; Steak, Eggs,Sandwiches and suck, and when I leave home which consists of whatever the wife fixes. On rare ocasions I have to catch something while at work and when I do it is 1 LARGE Big Mac EVM and an extra Mac. When I am off it is a free for all on what we eat.

Steve good luck on the diet. I tried, I ate all the healthy low fat low carb stuff and GAINED 10 pounds! Working nights certainly s not condusive to loosing weight!:gasp:

I think that copared to say, the quarter pounder with cheese, you do get more meat. The Big Mac theoretically fills you up more than a double cheeseburger, but most of the Big Mac is things other than the good stuff, the meat. I'm I'm really hungry, I'll go for 2 double cheeseburgers over a single Big Mac. It's cheaper too.

[Steve]

Maybe I should buy both and weigh them, the bun is cheap, I'm more concerned with the meat and cheese, that's the expensive stuff. Hmm, I'm getting hungry now just talking about it. There's a McDonalds just down the street too. ;-)

[dryfuss10]

well I only eat 2 meals a day breakfast and dinner but I do like those double quarter pounders yum yum:lol:

[omegafiler]

I'm not sure why, but for some reason I banned McDonalds awhile ago. I don't think I've been there in a year. :neutral:

But that is cheap... perhaps I'll try a double quarter pounder this week. You know, for science. :rofl:

:meuh:

[crane3447]

I've noticed that nobody said anything about a salad. My buddy says that salad is the stuff that food eats. I like to say that its not real food unless at some point it had a face. And eyes on a potato don't count!

I hope the P.E.T.A people don't get mad at me.

[GoFastPadre]

They are not cheap by any means, but if you want a burger then go to Hardees Pure Black Angus baby!!!! I especially like the Monster Bacon Cheese Burger 2/3 of a pound of the best meat on the market:party::party::great::great:

What is "Cheese Food"? Is that the food that they feed cheese?

[MWright936]

What is "Cheese Food"? Is that the food that they feed cheese?

I think that's the processed yellow stuff you pump on to gas station nachos

[Steve]

I think that's the processed yellow stuff you pump on to gas station nachos

You see there is Cheese, which is a food. Then there is "Cheese Food", is that a food or is that the food that is fed to cheese?

Dogs eat Dog Food, Cats eat Cat Food, so does Cheese eat Cheese Food?

[Pete95Sierra]

it makes sense right steve??? im with ya

[GoFastPadre]

I'm in!! Cheese Food.............:rofl:

[Steve]

It's getting hot in Texas now! ;-)

[MWright936]

I've been eating bad the past couple of weeks, need to get healthier again. Hmm, fresh fruit anyone?

[Steve]

It was 101 here yesterday in DFW. Hot Hot Hot!

[Steve]

Anyone like gladiator movies?

[Steve]

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

[tbplus10]

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

If he was in DFW he wouldnt chuck any cause it's to hot to be outside chucking wood.
He'd be inside your house enjoying the A/C and looking out the patio door watching you mow the lawn.

Who has seen fire ants and who has not seen fire ants?

[dwill3015]

I have not seen fire ants steve. Educate me please.

[Steve]

I have not seen fire ants steve. Educate me please.

You will! Fire ants came from Africa about 100 years ago, they were first noted in Alabama near the docks. They have started to spread and set up new colonies since then and are taking over the South, even to the point where some native animals like the Horned Toad are suffering becuase their natural bed is below ground and the fire ants are killing them!!!

They bite and shoot venum into you and the sores can last up to 6 weeks before they heal over. I have scars on my arm from last year where the skin never healed properly.

Fire ants are bad news.

[Steve]

Here is a very severe Fire Ant attack.

[Steve]

Wiki article on it all.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_ant

[Crawdaddy]

Wow, I didn't think there was anyone who's never seen fire ants before.... That's the only kind of ants we have down in my neck of the woods. They are near impossible to get rid of too...

[dwill3015]

WOW! Nasty buggers they are. I have not seen them in Washington State.

[MWright936]

I'm with Christopher, I didn't think there was anybody that hadn't seen a fireant before!! Those things are hell spawn!!

[Pete95Sierra]

oh man those things are terrible!! luckily never had a problem with em yet

[TomsHHR]

I wonder if they can survive the cold..

[tbplus10]

Luckily their only a problem down south so far.
A few years back the Government did a big spread projection on the African Fire ant. They were supposed to have adapted to cold weather by now and started spreading into the northern states. Lucky for the U.S. this didnt happen on schedule.
I've found a few spash's of Diesel on the mound followed by a match tends to get thier attention.
Then I follow up with Ortho Fire Ant Killer to sanitize the mound.

I wonder how fat a squirrel can get? I mean, what's the biggest fattest squirrel you've ever seen?

[Steve]

huh, no comments on that one? lol

[EagleTalons]

Most likely a city park squirrel. Once I shared about half of my McDonald's fries with him. So i bet you'd be able to see a softball sized one waddling around...

[Pete95Sierra]

their are some big ones in my backyard back home. they just eat all the birdseed and suet cakes all day

[04sierracrewcab]

when we go camping in State Parks there are quite a few of fat ole ones there. "Aww how cute mom lets feed him hes hungry" and then that thing eats as good as us. :lol:

[bry2500]

I got a fat one in my yard. This guy eats anything. He is pillaging my trash on a daily basis. Ate right through the PVC lattice I put around the barrels to stop him. If I can when i get back from Korea I will snap a pic of him. He's honestly the size of a small raccoon.
