Author	Topic: munch meal ; chicken wings?

Wai, what do you think of this?

Only if you don't have acne, you can start with the diet INCLUDING munch food meals. quote: Carolyn wrote: How many chicken wings make up the 15g dirty protein allowed? 1 wing, bone removed, contains 9.7 gram 'dirty' protein. (select "1 wing, bone removed", and then click on the "report" button) So, you can only have one and a half wing to ingest the maximum daily amount of 'dirty' protein, so, as Hollywood said, you better eat something else (very satisfying). quote: Hollywood wrote: i might end up making my own dried meat and use a different curing approach Good idea! Then you better learn about this issue first, because you better be well informed when starting such a thing, since you don't want to ingest badly prepared meat. Some time ago I received this by email: quote: "...Perhaps you might let some of your readers know that besides nuts and dried fruits, dried beef is also ideal to take along when backpacking for example. When I make jerky, I simply use raw beef with salt and pepper and hang it under netting in the sun for 1-2 days, or sometimes with a cool-air dehydrator. It is quite tasty, and other dried spices and herbs (like oregano and crushed red chilis) can be used as well..." Maybe there is more info about this on the web?
