hey guys, just want you all know that prices of chicken are expected to increase 5 percent or maybe double from next week onwards due to prices of feed grains rising from the current drought in the US.

McCain Meatlovers pizza $6 from Coles - 1120 calories 38.4g Fat 126g Carbs 65.2g Protein



Pro Tip - Add some more ground beef, say 300-400g ontop on this pizza for more protonz! I'm smashing 2 a day at the moment

took a trip down to USAFoods the other day,
Kashi go lean crunch was 11.99 .....really? $12 for cereal?
also they ran out of cinnamon and raisin swirl. sadface (because the emo isn't enough to show how sad it was)

[jzpowahz]

yeah that's a bit steep hey. It's good macros but not $12 good macros. If you want cheap fibre, you really can't go past all bran IMO. (goes great in protein sludges too )

Do you fry the mince first or what? Just put it on raw and cook it in the oven with the pizza?

Cheers mate. Friday is doable. I don't arrive till Thursday morning so will have to skip the parma unfortunately.

Not Australian but the first thing I am doing is heading to USA FOODS to pick up a case of Dr Pepper Zero for the hotel room. I love dr pepper but 50$ for a case shipped is just too much.

I wonder if I can bring back PB&Co. Somehow I doubt it.

Fellow former US brah? Check out Misty's Diner. So much hnnnnggg...

If you want Dr. Pepper, on the corner of Swanston Street and Little Bourke is an asian supermarket that sells Dr. Pepper, Coke Cherry, etc (all imported from like Thailand or something).

Yet to find Mtn Dew Code Red

Na not US but if they have bbq pulled pork/beef burgers etc im there!. I can get Dr Pepper near me and I love it but as we don't get the zero sugar one here I have to limit myself. USA Foods do cartons for 25$ or something but after shipping its 50$+. Going to take advantage while im there and get myself a carton to drink over my stay.

Ill be sure to check them out before I buy an entire carton.

Best burger I've ever had would be from the Beatbox Burger Kitchen, it's one of those food trucks that does outrageously good food, definitely worth looking them up! They're usually in North Melbourne from about 5:30 around Lygon Street.
Otherwise another good burger place is at Crown, the Rockpool Bar and Grill is where it's to be found!
Head down Chapel Street in Prahran, great eats and shopping for sure.

Anyone who lives/works in an Asian-populated suburb will know dat feel ....

These asian bakeries need to stop smelling so good. Really. The smell of taro, coconut, I can't handle this on a cut. I'm going to start licking the windows soon.

Chop Chop canned chicken and mayo. In a 160 gram big boy container has 250 calories and 35 grams of protein. Eat em straight from the tin, good to go.

[addictR3]

seriously coles is pi**ing me off. They literally do not stock any other brands for Tuna these days, What the F happen to Sole Mare.. best tuna in oil and all they have is crappy coles brand and john west :-(

way too expensive. if you're going to go for canned chicken get the woolies brand

I don't even bother for tuna at Coles. Woolies and Foodland have a much bigger range and better prices.

Picked up a new sauce the other day.

[JayVizzle]

Delicious. Just like finely chopped chicken breast with mayo. Of course there are different favours but mayo is the best IMO. A good alternative to canned tuna.

Not sure of the price difference and haven't tried woolies brand. i'll make a point of picking some up next time and compare.

this

I buy the ~425g Woolworths brand tin, cheapest and tastiest. Goes AMAZING with Ayam S/C

[stibrumby]

cheers guys

I got the other type of yellow fever too haha.

[RippednReady]

This! $1.60 for 270g drained weight of tuna, eat it plain most of the time or use it to top pizzas. Not the best omega profile but you get what you pay for. Buy atleast 4 cans at a time. Not paying $3+/can for tuna ftw

Edit: did not read properly Woolies tuna, not chicken but whatever

[JayVizzle]

Yeah but chop chop is a cool name.

Seriously tho the price is pretty much the same. You'd be talking 30c difference per can.
