Note: I DO include healthy fats as well, such as walnuts, almonds, extra virgin olive oil, flaxseeds, flaxseed oil (supplement - not to cook with), avocado and a few others.
Also, I do eat dairy products and have nothing against them, nor am I lactose intolerant. I simply don?t eat as much dairy as the rest of the stuff on my lists. When I eat dairy, its usually skim milk, low or non fat cottage cheese, low or non fat yogurt and low or non fat cheese (great for omelettes).
Last but not least, I usually follow a compliance rate of about 95%, which means I take two or three meals per week of whatever I want (stuff that is NOT on these lists - like pizza, sushi, big fatty restaurant steaks, etc)
I hope you found this helpful and interesting. Keep in mind, this is a general food list ( got by VOTING ) , and although you probably couldn?t go wrong to emulate it, you need to choose natural foods you enjoy in order to develop habits you can stick with long term. In the fruits and vegetables categories alone, there are hundreds of other choices out there, so enjoy them all!

Oats have more soluble fiber than any other grain. So for those who are cutting, they allow a good source of carbs while helping you stay full. Even for those who are bulking, or just watching their diet, they are a really cheap source of good carbs. Oats have also been shown to decrease LDL cholesterol.
As for peanut butter, it is a good source of both protein and fat. In fact, nuts are probably the best source of protein and fat in a single unprocessed food. Peanut butter just so happens to be the most readily available nut butter, and generally thought of as the best tasting. Its also portable and a great snack which is ideal for those who are trying to eat 5-6 meals a day.
Eating healthy, particularly if you are bulking can be expensive. Both oats and peanut butter are cheap foods that can be bought in bulk and are relatively healthy.. just my opinion tho

If your doing a food list that includes breakfast food I can't have fruity pebbles on their
I dont care if they are simple but pancakes and french toast are 100x's better (so many accompaniment options)
Then there are so many things you can do with omelets
If you must have cereal, Cinnamon toast crunch or cocoa puffsFounder of MMDELAD
