Weird bodybuilder thoughts

You can't irradiate your meals with a blast of microwave radiation and expect the chemical composition not to change. Even though the science insists it's harmless, the food comes out like rubber. I have a hard time believing the structurally more complex organic molecules (amino acids, fatty acids, vits and mins) aren't rendered inert. Besides, I love cold foods. Chicken, haddock, next day pasta, you name it. Yummay!

I have never used the microwave, I am good at eating cold food.

I'm 192 and eat 3500 which leaves me starving. I prefer to be lean. I'd love to eat 7k a day. I'm a lean small guy but it's not because I can't eat food. To me it's not a meal if it's under 1500 calories. When I used to permabbulk my cheat day was 2 pizzas from dominos, I I'd eat on the way home from the gym sitting in my passenger seat, then the one under neath it was for when I got home.

I just think all the food fear mongering today ...as a society we have gotten ocd. Before the internet explosion people just ate food everyone was fine. Every kid at school had a school milk, it was white or chocolate. No one got sick. We ate bread, no one got sick after lunch

I'm just talking perspective. If we look hard enough on the web we can find a reason why any food is bad. In college I'd slam cans of tuna and wash it down with milk ( Mercury and lactose). in general we worry too much and should use more common sense. If I was eating 7k calories a day I wouldn't eat any lean meat, I'd eat mostly fatty cuts. Cut down on the volume of food.

It's good we have information..like the potatoes. But in general we should take it with a grain of salt. I've broken all the food rules and never once was there a consequence. Putting raw chicken and a pork chop in same skillet and cooking, leaving my yogurt in the car for 3 hours while I trained before taking it home, cooking pork past the exp date, etc. Lol.

I think there are 2 points that come together and form a bigger problem:

1. More information and self-control about what is healthy or harmful, taking a lot of common sense advice and taking it to the extreme, what causes stress, anxiety ... and that causes diseases on a physical level.

2. The "food", the water, the air, is much worse now than it was 20 or 30 years ago.
