I had a great time hanging out with Brent & Autumn last weekend in Chicago. We filmed a ton of great content as the couple prepares for the 2024 season and they are both in amazing shape. In this video Brent and I head to the store to stock up on some food, the hotel we stayed at had limited recourses (small fridge and a microwave on every floor) so we wanted to focus on some different options to go for when in similar situations.

@muscleandstrength most folks can "handle" fermented dairy. In fact, their gut is better when they consume it. The issue is that a lot of people overly restrict their diets for long periods and create digestive disorders that wouldn't exist otherwise.

The protein, carbs, fat are rounded to zero or one if that low. The product might have 0.4 of a gram of fat which is about 4 Calories. Might also have a partial gram of carbohydrate. That's how you get to 10, it's just rounding for the packaging.

There are always healthy options as far as you read the labels. I must admit pickled vegetables, all sort of, is one of my favorite condiments, it can be used as a condiment, and it's still healthier and a nice alternative for those sticking to low calorie sauces or sugar free ketchup or mustard or my most favorite which is tabasco/hot sauce.
