Then I get about a tsp of mayo, 1-2 tblsp of mustard, tsp of tabasco sauce, and a bit of pepper. Mix it all up and put it on toasted bread or put it on regular bread with cheese and melt that shit. so bomb and the best part is I don't even dirty a dish, just a butter knife. | ||

The food is absolutely disgusting but it lends me an air of moral superiority when I tell my students to shut up and memorise their spelling list. Not to mention the curl of my lips from the taste of the low fat milk (I abhore milk) I force myself to drink has a menacing effect on children below the age of 12. The tinned tuna is the worst, though. Since protein builds muscle and tinned tuna is a cheap source of protein, I have to eat at least 3 tins a week. It's dry (ironic, since it's packed in water), tasteless (ironic, since it's preserved with salt) and really feels like I'm eating soggy cardboard. I think tuna, knowing that they are the living, swimming equivalent of a protein shake, have cunningly evolved to taste like shit when cooked and canned. But it seems quite vindictive to inflict suffering on the guy who _didn't_ kill them _after_ they're dead. The only kind of tuna I love is maguro sashimi/sushi, but it's so devilishly expensive. I can't wait to cover enough moral high ground so I can go back to being a geek. But until then... What BreaK and daz said are some of the things you can do to make it less disguisting. Hopefully you know that chicken is another good source of protein, as well as sardines. Protein shakes are good as well, but again, it might disgust you. Lol though I've never heard someone expressing their disgust for tuna and low fat milk the way you did. I do some body building and yeah I don't like tuna that much but it's something you get used to. | ||

Although admittedly, these days I am eating so bland due to my cutting diet that I don't even care what I eat or what it tastes like anymore. "Did you just mix oatmeal, with egg whites and cottage cheese?" "What does it taste like?" "umm... air?" | ||

The tuna I'm eating now is the second cheapest I can find. It's actually not bad compared to the cheapest. When I was eating the cheapest tuna, even my cat wouldn't eat it. Now when I open a tin the cat tries to grab a nibble. And yeah, I always go for the low fat, low salt tins. | ||

Btw i like roasted tuna. It tastes very differently than fishes. More like beef. Also tinned tuna isn't that bad imo. | ||
