Beef up, July 4th prices down

 

Same article says:


Carefully manipulated propaganda (pork is NOT beef)

You might wonder, maybe not, why I'm bothering with 3AM non-political filler stories (from bureaus)

But it's for next month's monthly budget.

Pot roast gets devoured in 3 days, and then there are 28 or so days left.
mmmm, pot roast.

The flat chuck is smaller. But the same Price per pound.
Now, if you get food *delivered* I wonder if they know the difference.
"Tri-tip" is horrible but it's cheaper
Besides cows going extinct and the menacing flesh-eating screw-worm just across the border, 
And imports going tits up, 
You'd *think* someone is trying to tell you that the beef industry is doomed.


Right this exact second I'm looking for foods that cause a person to retain water, and the foods that are diuretic (Get rid of the water your execrable diet is causing) But it's proving difficult.
They usually hate bread, and salt.
I LOVE salt, and I live on bread.
Diuretic foods are boring and they themselves contain LOTS of water... I'm missing the point.
Cucumbers? Boring. 
Asparagus? Arugula?
Geez, I was never a model, I (no. ew)
WTF relatively dry food (non bulky) Tastes good?
Cheese? (I'm hoping?)
Avocados!! But if they're healthy they're expensive. 
TOO expensive.
And hard (inedible)

I don't really know how my stomach feels about acid. Enough acid to make a difference to everything else but keep my stomach quiescent.
The picture in my head you can't see is lemon-slices boiling with my summer squash,
Organic free-range zucchini, (Link)

 
or maybe (even better) a bottle of lemon juice.


PS the Farm Bureau (or whoever) thinks that you can eat decent picnic-food for $7.00 a person.
Hardly seems worth it.

Buy now, save thirty Cents? OMG, get in the car

They also don't differentiate between Costco and Vons-Pavilions, a store is a store.


😒😿😿😿😒😭😭

"Fish" is vague.
Caviar and sturgeon or canned tuna??


The subject of vitamins comes up from time to time.
"Folic acid" isn't covered.
I wouldn't know, no one told me, and it isn't covered anyway.
"Methylfolate" just in case?

Neural-tube-defects, isn't that Spina-bifida?
Maybe I quoted the wrong unreadable.



Ya gotts to know, I had to choose, and so I chose methylfolate 1000, or four times the recommended daily dose. I don't want to go all "outer Limits" 


so I'm researching as best as I can.
I might switch from daily dosages to once weekly, but it's almost for sure they'll gather dust on a shelf if I do that.
And how do I know if my doctor is being all preventative (just in case) or there's some actual need?
And plus he never mentioned "B12" but I'm taking them together, is that overkill?
(omg)
Ain't AI great (sometimes)?









Snarky-shielding:
No, that 33-bucks was not Only for vitamins.

"Optimized Folate" does Nothing, says one reviewer.
yeahbutt I was directed to take it, verily, and so I shall.


Grant recipients talk funny to receive more grants; if they talked in plain english,
Associations and councils would lobby against them and reduce their money,
"Too woke, Too Racial, too Diverse"
So they obfuscate like puzzles in my game (And I hate puzzles)

There is an "Inverse relationship" between monolithic cheese (all cheese looks alike, right?)
and heart disease.
Hem vs haw
Only organic free-range cheese is worthy.



I love cheese. The yellow and the white, although the white gets old.
My stomach endorses cheese.
No comment from my heart.





Real cheese doesn't smell like a cow's butt.
"American cheese" was invented by a Canadian, who went on to become a zillionaire putting cheese in spray cans.
I'm not snooty, my stomach is. It doesn't like "American cheese"

In conclusion, I'm only interested in cheeses like "Cheddar" not the stratospherically expensive kinds for the terminally-refined...



So cheese goes on my shopping list.
