Hehe… nice!! I was looking through my cupboards and I found canned Beef Stew. Mmmm…. well, not really.

Geez, I must still be sick if I’m this excited over some plain canned good.

So I’m starving. And as is typical with guys, much too lazy to make some real food. I’m surprised I still had this can, it was well hidden behind my bag of rice and pasta (you know, that I hardly ever touch… lol). How convenient can you get, open the can, heat up the goop, and munch (slurp?) away. Less dishes to do too, just eat out of the pot! (Am I… barbarian enough for you? Har har har… *g*)

Ok, ok, so it’s not very tasty. But it’s fast. And it’s what like $2 a can? That lasts for a whole meal or 1.5. (just add bread and a favourite beverage!).

Yes, all you ladies are shaking your heads and tsk-tsking away. But hey, I’m eating it, not you. I mean, a prime motivation to cook more often is so when I actually wanted to cook (say, a nice romantic dinner for a lady friend or some such), I could prepare something that approached edible. But, how often is that going to happen? So cans it is. (I’ve long since exhausted my supply of pizza pockets.)

Although there are health concerns. I have no idea what % fat this thing is (probably very high. Not to mention the salt content to make it somewhat appetizing). This ties in with the DOCH readings I was just trudging through, but since I’m in the pre-contemplative state on the “Stages of Change Model” we’ll leave it at that. If you want me to consider it, you’re supposed to gently point out the benefits of change and the drawbacks of maintaining my poor diet. Or something. Heh, wow, something we learned in DOCH seems almost relevant to Real Life(TM)! :)

And yes, it is 2:20 AM. My sleep schedule is all messed up because I got well in the evening, so I got up then. I’ll get out of this nocturnal phase by Monday, no sweat. :)
