But just whipped this up for lunch;

Haha, fair point good Sir!

When kids grow up…… and work calms down…… and I find my big boy pants?

That said, my performance decreases the longer I go compared to others. I also get dread the thought of spending hours cycling round.

Tempted to do an Oly next year, and about to sign up to a 10 mile running race. That counts, right?

Covered a bit in the book & they bang on about it over at Zoe too.

It’s known that the Mediterranean diet is more healthy than the western diet but any attempts to extract vitamins/compounds from the MD and apply to the WD don’t yield any positive results.

Inspired by GCN, Mrs FP bought some Kefir (not yeo Valley, sorry @gingerbongo ! )

What are you meant to do with it? I’ve been having a small glass in the mornings. Do you pour it on other stuff, drink it straight? Is it like Yokult?
Is it snake oil?

Use it on cereal or fruit as a milk/youghurt substitute

I just drink it, but get the flavoured ones, love the stuff. No idea how effective it is but power of placebo and all that!

Is that better than power of the crowd

Aye there’s a good bit of evidence for good gut health from kefir. Have you got Biotiful then?

Best taken a bit a day basically.

As it happens we’re launching a small, drinkable kefir shot in a few weeks time. Bit like the Zoe ones that were a huge success at the start of the year (guess who makes them :wink:).

Yes that’s the one. Chunky old plastic bottle though, not sure Greta would approve!

Check out your local Sainsbury’s in Sept/Oct. If I paid attention in our marketing day a few weeks back there’ll be a big, joint kefir/gut health push by us and Biotiful.

Always on brand! :joy: :joy: :joy:

Sorry mate, I’ll check again today as we’re doing an online shop but the YV stuff is always so expensive compared to others.

It’s a West Country I’d like to support though.

I’m only kidding. It is quite pricey - lots of reasons for that.

My kids do unequivocally understand that Muller is the devil though! :joy: :joy: :joy:
