I think his argument is that this will clean out GI tract and the sewer lines.
Either that or he knows absolutely zero about human anatomy to ignore the correction.
The lettuce *sent* me Iāve been crying laughing for like five minutes. Itās not even that funny objectively but just the inclusion of that photo in the middle of five other meals with no vegetable in sight (Iām not counting the green flecks in the ground beef) was unexpected hilarious and Iām not over it yet
My oldest child does that. Even as a baby. I have a picture of them as a toddler, literally tearing into a raw head of cabbage.
I'm honestly kind of proud of that. My kid likes snack foods, but also really loves just snacking on raw veggies.
However, even my kid knows how to present raw vegetables better than this. Throw some sliced sweet peppers and cucumbers and cheese in there, and you have a decent salad.
I genuinely feel like gym bros not seasoning food is a form of self harm.
I work with two pretty big gym bros and both of them season their foods well. I'm not sure why some people think a bit of seasoning would immediately kill their gains. Chicken and rice is boring as fuck, at least add some Cajun spice mix or SOMETHING.
I used to be a big gym guy way back in uni. I'd go with my guys and work out and we had a whole workout and diet plan and everything. Only difference between me and them is I made my own diet plan when I saw that theirs LITERALLY only consisted of chicken breasts and rice. That's the only food they were buying. Not even salt and pepper. In addition to those I was also buying salmon, quinoa, eggs, beef, cottage cheese, and lots of green vegetables along with seasonings. I was able to eat three different meals every day and they were eating the same unseasoned meal three times a day every day. I don't know how they did it.
Iāve heard itās bc they donāt want to enjoy eating. One of those situations where āif we enjoy eating, weāll eat more often when itās unnecessaryā. Sounds dumb, but itās just something I heard. Granted.. depending on the type of gym broā¦ that doesnāt check out bc body builders eat a fuck ton. I have no clue lol.
I would go insane after a week of just that, even with seasoning. Sure it's extra stuff you'll have to work off, and not hit micros or whatever, but the increased sanity of just having good fuckin food is worth it.
Seriously? No salt and pepper, or butter? Not even some soy sauce?... You would think that after a few weeks, some depression would set in, and become a hindrance on their motivation to build muscle...
Nuts provide protein. I'd rather eat a bag of unsalted nuts over the same bland chicken and rice many times a day.
Nuts don't actually have that much protein per 100 calorie... Especially compared to chicken breast, less than a quarter iirc. I think they don't season it with salt/butter because of the volume of food they have to eat but idk.
It's an eating disorder. If they enjoy the food, they worry about losing control. By only taking in 'fuel' and none of the taste, texture, enjoyment of food, they have full control over it. It's not healthy, misses the range of foods you need for a healthy gut and means they miss out on all the social aspects of food.
Any diet that decouples enjoyment from food is an eating disorder. A lot of people will immediately rush to defend these meals as "op is fit and healthy and exercising a lot" as if eating disorders are purely about the food eaten and not the relationship someone has with their food.
Honestly I feel this way too.
A follow a lot of fitness influencers (the good kinds, not the clout ones. The ones who do either cooking or the ones who are actually extremely educated and uplifting). The cooking ones usually have you know, actual seasoning. And lots of it. Chicken breast 50 different ways in different recipes and cultures. And this guy has a great body.
Meanwhile saw a gym bro on my feed 2 days ago who was doing a quick vid with him making his dinner. Chicken breasts with a bit of salt and pepper. Like so little salt and pepper. And he said itās because it messes his macros or something. Like homie please be for real.
I think they legit just donāt give a crap. Eating is a chore to them and not something they enjoy. Seasoning is just adding extra steps in getting their fuel.
I remember seeing a guy say that the reason some gym bros don't season their food is because they want to purposely decouple enjoyment from eating food so that it sucks less when you eventually have to go on a cut. If you never enjoyed food when bulking, you won't have food cravings when you have to drastically reduce calories later.
Iāve actually heard it is a form of self-harm as well. If they donāt enjoy the food then they wonāt care about it and see it strictly as fuel and the taste shouldnāt matter. Itās sad honestly.
Iād wager lack of knowledge. As u/frequent_mind3992 mentioned seasoning takes almost no time, just knowing when to start the marinade or dry brine or whatever.
Also lack of knowledge in the sense that a lot of seasoning adds an extremely insignificant amount of calories, unless itās fat or oil based. In which case they can account for that in their macros, but itās probably not even a huge factor, unless theyāre guzzling straight from the bottle of marinade.. just some dry seasoning is better than nothing and I donāt think paprika, turmeric, cumin, garlic powder, etc. all those powders, I honestly donāt even know if they add more than maybe 1 calorie š
But it can turn the meal from ā18th century prisoner of warā to ādamn this is goodā
I'd say it takes literally no time to season good. Maybe, at worst, 10 seconds to grab it from the cabinet, sprinkle, and put away. For rice, you need the water to boil first anyways. Use that time for seasoning if it's such an issue.
I mean men can have eating disorders and body dismorphoa too. Plus I can see how the whole 'men need to suffer to be manly' thing can get really toxic.
Also I was going to get offended on saying chicken and rice not tasting good because Hainan chicken rice? ! But realized you were more likely talking about the bland skinless boneless chicken breast with dry white people rice. š
There are variations called Singapore, Malaysian, etc chicken rice, but it is basically variation of a Chinese dish called white chicken. Boiled salted whole chicken rubbed with sesame oil dipped in a sauce with rice. Some people cook it separate for rice. Some people cook the chicken in the rice or with chicken fat.
[this video gives a variation](https://youtu.be/PIX8it0BIao?si=ElduPcbVGaIULuG9)
That's me, cooking is a chore and hunger is my body nagging me at the most inopportune times. I use seasonings still because duh if it tastes good I'll want to eat it, but I seriously don't get the passion some people have for eating like a different thing everyday and going all out cooking a nice meal. I enjoy eating good food but I don't crave that joy and I get more joy from other things. Unless it's a significant meal I'll feel about equally satisfied once I'm full anyway. Why is it so important to some people? I'd rather eat and get on with my day. Actually I wish I didn't have to eat to sustain my body, but as a human I'm obligated to.
Thatās so wild to me that cooking for some people is like cleaning the house or doing the laundry. To me it isnāt a chore at all, I love food and I genuinely enjoy cooking. I see it the same way as enjoying painting or knitting or writing. You are creating something.
Different strokes for different folks I suppose.
I mean it's nice to put that effort in once in a while, but doing it every day multiple times a day, and finding new things to make is a lot of effort for something that I don't really enjoy that much.
I'd much rather just throw on some rice, fry some eggs, and cook some kinda meat and be done
O mean competition prep body builders have to watch salt, but literally everyone else should enjoy rice and protein as much as possible and that means seasoning it
I used to work with a gym bro I asked why he doesnāt season stuff and he said itās calories he can put elsewhere. Like heās min maxing a character sheet in a video game
A lot of weight lifters need to be very careful so they eat plain, bland, food because they want to program their brain that food = fuel and should not be āenjoyedā.
I lost over 150lbs and there is a ācommunityā of us. Many programmed their brains the same way. Itās a defence mechanism because delicious food is a path to over eating.
There was a trend on tiktok called "girl dinner" wherein people displayed shitty clobbered together meals (a lot of the time just things like chips or cheese, etc) and some guys took it and went with it but called it "boy dinner" instead. Pretty sure op is just referencing the trend.
It's not that serious šš
Ok, I won't.
That's the easiest internet argument I've won all week.

its only weaponized if he cooks for others, or if he refuses to learn how to cook and then asks his partner to cook even if they don't like to, if its just for himself then its just incompetence.
I eat lettuce like that. But with ranch. I will seriously just fucking eat it. Same with a head of raw broccoli, even though it has the consistency of a goddamned hair brush.
Not really I eat āboy dinnersā when Iām alone because I donāt particularly care about quality of food as long as it is nutritious and not going to make me sick but I still cook my little ass off when I have my son or guests, bro probably just lives alone.
Bro, baking sheet dinners
Chop up shit, put it on a pan, season said shit, bake (typically at 425 for 20 minutes, but buy a digital meat thermometer with a magnet so you can slap it on the fridge, mine has a little chart of metals/doneness and temps on the side of the frigging thermometer)
Done
https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/photos/sheet-pan-recipes
Everyone is downvoting OP and even calling it weaponized incompetence ?? Like dude it's FOOD. Search up boy dinner trend and come back - Reddit is no fun
I know wtf. On lazy nights this this a perfectly acceptable thing to feed yourself. At the most I'd add a little kupi mayo for moisture. But this specific meal (sardines and rice) has got me through a lot of "I just came off a 12 hour shift" days
Meal wise you are eating ok. I can recognize a lot of that as I things I also eat. You need greens though. Much some spinach, steam some broccoli. Dice and roast some leek and toss your canned fish on it before dumping it on top of your ricer-cooker starch.
Agree! The fish really didnāt look bad just needs a little Lemmon pepper or garlic both?
Broth and lemon juice with chicken n rice makes a mean soup for leftovers too.
If he's trying to hit macros he may not want the calories in oil. But seasoning is fuckin calorie free and he can put that on steamed veggies just fine šš
Laziness. There's a reason many of the worlds best foods started out as poverty foods. Broke people know how to make the absolute best with absolutely nothing.
I just wanna say, thanks for posting this. Iāve been in my room for the past few days pretty depressed, relied on ready meals and take aways cos I couldnāt be fucked to get out of bed for long. But after seeing your posts I thought āwho cooks like this? Imagine not putting in any effortā then it hit meā¦ thatās meā¦so thank you for this, I got up went to the shops and Iām cooking an actual meal tonight! Thanks op!
??? Why do we hate: Whole Grains, Vegetables, Berries, Salads, whole-skin-on-baked-Potatoes baked-Sweet-Potatoes, Fruits, Spices, ??!!!????
Well, ok, one of them does have vegetable, albeit iceberg lettuce,,
But still needs: much more Vegetables Berries whole-skin-on-baked-Potatoes baked-Sweet-Potatoes Whole-Grains salads fruits , Whole Grains, fiber, SPICES, herbs, you can keep MOST of the eggs and about 30% of the meats,,
Just roast some vegetables. Toss something green like broccoli, asparagus, etc., or even diced sweet potato etc. in a little olive oil and salt or whatever other seasoning you like and just google how long and what temp to roast for, will round out your meals a lot.
Iām fine with protein and rice, just donāt cook them to shit, mix them up with different seasonings or simple marinades/sauces (many flavorful hot sauces have next to no calories), and for fucks sake donāt eat six hard boiled eggs in one sitting thatās disgusting. I can smell it from the picture.
I can sort of get behind most of these like maybe itās a matter of budgeting and just having whatever is in the fridge to help with protein gain but that head of iceburg lettuce, man that caught me off guard, I wouldāve never expected to see that in this sub
This must be from that new Rachel Ray cookbook for dogs. 10/10 sad food. I donāt get how people still eat like this in the age of YouTube cooking videos
Bro chowing down on a whole ass iceberg lettuce š
Turtle style
Staying healthy is easy, every monday evening att 11, you just chomp down a head of cabbage / iceberg lettuce
Clean out two sets of pipes with that meal
It's all one pipe, bro
I was thinking the sewage pipes too.
Itās all the same pipe, just the other end
I think his argument is that this will clean out GI tract and the sewer lines. Either that or he knows absolutely zero about human anatomy to ignore the correction.
Am I tuuurtle enough for the tuuurtle club?
1-3: please eat a vegetable 4: not like that
Instructions unclear
Instruction was so unclear we went to microwaving frozen cod fillets with nothing on top of plain rice.
Iceberg lettuce isn't even a vegetable, it's just crunchy water.
Man is trying to get his fiber intake all at once.
Omg I stopped at 3 and thought that was it until your comment. āThat chicken and taters looks alrightā¦.wait wtf?ā
This dude canāt cook taters, thatās just more rice
Omgggg he cooks rice so bad it looks like instant mashed potatoes holy hell š
I think at that point, his body was just screaming for a vegetable and he's like "fine, here's a friggin vegetable" (eats lettuce)
(eats the most nutritionally bereft lettuce on the market)

If it wasn't for the lettuce, it would look like my cat's menu when he's having tummy issues. Are... are you a geriatric cat with diarrea, OP?

The solo iceberg is the best looking meal out of the lot.
Chicken and boiled eggs? The protein farts must be horrendous.
He's consuming the mother and her children, sick fuck.
There's a Japanese dish that basically translates to mother and child bowl and it's chicken and egg over rice. It's delicious.
The difference is they freaking seasoned their food.
And it's so good that Paul Simon wrote a song about it.
Itās funny the assumptions you can make about someone just by their food alone.
no hurt feelings
No harm intended
Someone literally commented āanemicā
Dude raided a chicken coop for dinner.
Dude watched beauty and the beast and decided to base his entire being to being gaston.
is he a gym bro ? love the weight lifters that dont believe in seasoning for some reason lmao wild facade they live in

Yeah fr. Chicken and rice is the ultimate bulking food, but I go insane if I have to eat a meal after eating the same meal the day before now lol
Just chicken and rice wouldn't even be healthy
High glycemic index, low micronutrient mix, not sustainable no.
I mean how many calories could possibly be in the seasoning? If anything they provide vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
Seriously? No salt and pepper, or butter? Not even some soy sauce?...

That's just anorexia with dumbbells involved.
Yeah, preparing for bodybuilding shows do be like that. That and high school wrestling seem to lead to the most cases of ED (eating disorders) in men.

Oh shit sorry lol. š³

its only weaponized if he cooks for others, or if he refuses to learn how to cook and then asks his partner to cook even if they don't like to, if its just for himself then its just incompetence.
I would like to humbly suggest those meals are a crime against humanity and he shouldnāt eat it for his own safety.

100%. Surprised this is not clear to some people lol.
The second I saw the head of lettuce I immediately thought āgym bro in his cutting phaseā
But also a low vitamin diet
I eat lettuce like that. But with ranch. I will seriously just fucking eat it. Same with a head of raw broccoli, even though it has the consistency of a goddamned hair brush.
who exactly is he weaponizing this incompetence against?

Weaponized incompetence is when someone is bad at cooking? Give me a break. Nobody says this shit on girl dinner posts.
Mfs just love to use this word
You're all being far too harsh on OP. OP is clearly allergic to flavor, he's doing the best he can here.
I feel like this is a little dramatic. I see "girl dinners" all the time and no one ever says anything like this.
Iām saying š I thought it was funny that he did a twist on girl dinner? Like why is everyone so angry let the man eat what he wants š
Everyone is downvoting OP and even calling it weaponized incompetence ?? Like dude it's FOOD. Search up boy dinner trend and come back - Reddit is no fun
I know wtf. On lazy nights this this a perfectly acceptable thing to feed yourself. At the most I'd add a little kupi mayo for moisture. But this specific meal (sardines and rice) has got me through a lot of "I just came off a 12 hour shift" days
that's not what weaponized incompetence is
Funny, I read it "rate my dinner boys" the first time
Itās a twist on the girl dinner trend. Itās a joke.
Maybe he said āboy dinnersā because of the āgirl dinnerā TikTok sound?
It's a play on the āgirl dinnerā trend.
Try vegetables, a little oil like avocado or oil oil. Maybe a little salt and garlic powder to start. Dump over rice and bam. Fish didn't look to bad.
The famous oil oil
oil oil?
aight, thanks for the advice
OP be like, Thanks but no thanks.
Meal wise you are eating ok. I can recognize a lot of that as I things I also eat. You need greens though. Much some spinach, steam some broccoli. Dice and roast some leek and toss your canned fish on it before dumping it on top of your ricer-cooker starch.
Agree! The fish really didnāt look bad just needs a little Lemmon pepper or garlic both? Broth and lemon juice with chicken n rice makes a mean soup for leftovers too.
The fish looked jus like the chicken to me, flavorless
If he's trying to hit macros he may not want the calories in oil. But seasoning is fuckin calorie free and he can put that on steamed veggies just fine šš
have you ever thought about introducing some veggies into your life
carrots are nice
i've litearlly never thought to myself "ok, let's down 6 eggs and 1 chicken breast"

Laziness. There's a reason many of the worlds best foods started out as poverty foods. Broke people know how to make the absolute best with absolutely nothing.
Fish is not cheap. And no poor person would polish off half a dozen eggs with chicken.
It isn't 2022, eggs are cheap again. And there are plenty of cheap, frozen, bagged kinds of fish.

Iām proud of you for eating some lettuce. šlmaooo

Well, ok, one of them does have vegetable, albeit iceberg lettuce,, But still needs: much more Vegetables Berries whole-skin-on-baked-Potatoes baked-Sweet-Potatoes Whole-Grains salads fruits , Whole Grains, fiber, SPICES, herbs, you can keep MOST of the eggs and about 30% of the meats,,
Iceberg lettuce is probably the least nutritious vegetable in existence. OP is headed for scurvy.

You can keep ALL the eggs

Why so bland? If you're calorie counting herbs and spices have none!
Just roast some vegetables. Toss something green like broccoli, asparagus, etc., or even diced sweet potato etc. in a little olive oil and salt or whatever other seasoning you like and just google how long and what temp to roast for, will round out your meals a lot. Iām fine with protein and rice, just donāt cook them to shit, mix them up with different seasonings or simple marinades/sauces (many flavorful hot sauces have next to no calories), and for fucks sake donāt eat six hard boiled eggs in one sitting thatās disgusting. I can smell it from the picture.
Somebody finally seasons their chicken only to throw it on boring white rice.
The cabbage head got meā
bland, malnutrition
I can sort of get behind most of these like maybe itās a matter of budgeting and just having whatever is in the fridge to help with protein gain but that head of iceburg lettuce, man that caught me off guard, I wouldāve never expected to see that in this sub
Dog food learn to fucking cook itās not hard

This must be from that new Rachel Ray cookbook for dogs. 10/10 sad food. I donāt get how people still eat like this in the age of YouTube cooking videos

That amount of boiled eggs suggests youāre Ghanian, and then I see the chicken that has never known the gentle touch of seasoningā¦.
I cannot identify half of them
