Are split peas and chickpeas not beans?

[–] ericbomb@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

You're not wrong! But I felt like some people wouldn't think of split peas, and wanted to call out more than just "beans"

I can't eat that many carbs in a day. All the money I save on food would be spent on toilet paper.

You may have an insulin issue. Or a gluten issue.

I also can't eat that many carbs in a day.

Seconded. I would have issues that kept getting worse as I got older. I noticed that whenever I did keto, I felt much better. When I combined it with going gluten free, I felt amazing. Well, dad gets diagnosed with Celiac and my old DNA test results mentioned I was a carrier and more likely to develop it. I haven't had the endoscopy yet, but it's pretty likely. This sucks as I love bread and baking it.

Anyway, if gluten is an issue, rice flour can be used for a lot of things and corn/potato starch is a good thickener (whichever is cheaper where you are).

Only slightly related. One weird thing I noticed when moving to Japan is that peanuts and beans were way more expensive than the US. I guess the equivalent here would be moyashi (bean sprouts) and cabbage.

Interesting! What is considered the cheap source of proteins over there? Is it just soy?

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 5 points 1 month ago

soy (in the form of edamame, tofu, and natto) is probably the cheapest option. Eggs are usually next on the list for people over here.

Edit: seafood might or might not be an option before eggs depending upon where one lives. Organ meat as well as we eat heart, liver, etc. a lot here as well.

Read Marx, especially if you don't think you need to.

Both are good advice

I was about to reply here in the comments "shouldn't this be "malicious advice mallard"?"

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

I think the malicious mallard is red

Alright colorblind people, It's your time to shine.
