Adventures in protein

Alright, you've convinced me - the point is not to avoid carbOHYDRATE-rich foods altogether, but to eat them in moderation. So I will buy myself almonds and convince myself to snack on those instead of all the lovely lovely candy in the candy bowl on my desk.

For the record, Blue Diamond Lime 'n Chili Almonds are awesome (I went out and bought some the last time I got on a protein kick). Sunkist Buttered Up Almond Munchies are not, but in their defense I should have read the package better. With a name like "Buttered Up" I thought they would be in some way butter-flavored, but instead they have some "natural and artificial butter flavor" and butter mixed in there with the majority sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup, sucralose, molasses, honey, fructose and corn syrup. It's like someone set out to combine all of the sweetening agents known to man. Sucks to be you, aspartame! You can't play with us and our weird, sweet-ass almonds!

So, yeah. The cool thing about this lame-ass new diet is that it's forcing me to try new foods. The bad thing is that so far, most of the new foods suck.
