Protein deficiency is a serious cause of ill health and death in developing countries.... Protein deficiency plays a part in the disease kwashiorkor.... Protein deficiency can lead to reduced intelligence or mental retardation.
-Wikipedia
As if muscular atrophy wasn't already a pressing enough issue in my life (due to my scholarly and workload attributed restrictions on athletics), I now find my self coming to terms with the realities of having to feed my self on a daily basis, the ensuing weight loss, and the lingering question of what "kwashiorkor" is. The result to date, is a new appreciation for all things edible: Flour, water, and baking powder laid out on a frying pan suddenly entices the pallet like sirloin on the grill. Coffee is now an official food group, ibuprofen is an appetizer, and the communion plate at church looks disturbingly more like an
hors d'oeuvres platter each week. Thank high heavens for peanut butter and Cliff Bars.Quest of late:
-find the cash cab
-find/capture/synthesize/kill, and then eat, meat.
... and an umbrella. not to eat but just to have, it's wet here.

Very good.
i think you'll find that croutons make for a delicious dinner entree when marinated in generic cola and peppered with ramen seasoning.
