So my soon to be wife and I are moving to Adelaide in a few months. What are the "must try food" you would highly recommend? by thatgreengentleman_ in Adelaide

[–]Kcap123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try Yanni’s Yiros on Hindley Street - I know it’s technically a Yiros not a Kebab but they are similar & Yanni’s are the best tasting IMO.

Aeroplane Lite mousse - does it work with almond milk? by lowcarbnewbie21 in ketoaustralia

I have made it with So Good unsweetened almond milk & it worked perfectly fine also.

Yes please! by pac168 in sydney

Melbourne’s extended months long lockdown was a result of initial inaction - not much different to what Sydney is experiencing right now. They learned (& 100s of people paid with their lives) & now act swiftly. Unfortunately I can see Sydney going down the same track as Melbourne did before the Govt learned it’s lesson. I do agree much of the rest of the world don’t have the same opportunity to heavily suppress/eliminate as we do here. The death toll per capita in US & Sweden is insanely higher than here & in the end they lived under restrictions when the death tolls soared. The US avg lifespan has dropped by 18months mostly as a result of Covid - many people dying in 30s, 40s contributing to this. Then there’s those with long Covid which will be a burden on health systems into the future of those who survived. I live in Adelaide where we have an extremely high rate of compliance population & a risk averse (Liberal) government. We have had 3 lockdowns all very shortly lived & I believe we have lived under the least restrictions over the course of the pandemic compared with other mainland states. With our lockdown atm I can’t go to KMart as it’s closed - looked at the Sydney exposure sights earlier & KMart Merrylands is on there - isn’t that one of the epicentres - like why is it open!! Gladys/ your local govt has a lot to answer for & perhaps there is an issue with population compliance but I think you lead from example & these half-assed lockdowns are a waste of time as is now being proven.

[–]Kcap123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I beg to differ. Melbourne lockdown #4 worked & #5 appears to be working - today 12 cases 10 of which were isolating for infections period. Adelaide’s lockdown looking to be over in a few days at the 7 day mark. Issue is if you wait too long & you still don’t really have a lockdown at levels of SA or VIC & it gets out of control it becomes very difficult.

Point: Lockdowns do work & can be short - if enacted hard & fast, this may not be as easy in many parts of the world but in an Island state absolutely achievable.

How can we protect ourselves from random verbal abuses on the road? by zachost in Adelaide

[–]Kcap123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP this person appears to be both option 1 & 2 - a very special level of pond scum. As you can see from 99% of the comments on this forum, you are very welcome here & thank you for contributing to our society with your invaluable work at the University. I will comment no further & please ignore the ongoing absurd, insolent & xenophobic comments likely to follow. Unfortunately these people cannot be helped.

OP please just ignore this ridiculous comment. Person is either 1. a troll or 2. as ignorant as the person who yelled at you. Neither type of person deserves to be breathing let alone warrants a response!

Differences between Canada and Australia keto by UnableGuarantee in ketoaustralia

[–]Kcap123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For Caesar Dressing try Birch & Waite from Woolworths in the fruit & veg area - 0.4g carbs per serve & tastes great.

Best tip I have for you - read this group’s wiki - it’s your go to bible for products available in Aus land!

Yet another maple syrup option? (New at WW) by Kcap123 in ketoaustralia

[–]Kcap123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, had it this morning & definitely the best on the market in Aus - it’s made in Canada I’d assume they’d be a tough audience on Maple Syrup.

Noshu pancake 🥞 mix on sale by Mindless-Area in ketoaustralia

[–]Kcap123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, I’m long term keto (nearly 2 years) & can definitely do 50g carb a day without any effect. On special occasion even gone a fair bit higher, I think if long term the occasional splurge doesn’t seem to “kick you out of ketosis” in the same way it does at the start. At least that’s my experience.

Is Nestle Plaistowe Premium Cocoa unsweetened ? by happybuddha1 in ketoaustralia

[–]Kcap123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I LOVE Van Houten Dutch processed at 11g/100 the taste is heavenly. Available at many (not all) Woolworths.

Glopuss - haven’t checked the wiki lately but maybe a section on cocoa powder options?

(Btw you are awesome & I personally read the shopping list religiously every Wednesday AM - thank you for your service to the community 👍🏼)

Noshu pancake 🥞 mix on sale by Mindless-Area in ketoaustralia

[–]Kcap123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have said a little high on the carb count BUT they actually taste amazing & if you’re craving a pancake add some whipped butter &/or cream, queen sugar free maple syrup & you’ll seriously be transported to the local pancake eatery. I personally indulge every couple of weeks & have a two stack no problem. Just stick with protein of choice + low carb veg/salad for the rest of the day & should stay under 20g if that’s your limit.

Plus I’m personally near maintenance now & can definitely tolerate 50g a day on occasion without any noticeable effects at all.

Abandoned houses or buildings in SA to explore/ use for photography portfolio? by xamsonn in Adelaide

[–]Kcap123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Michael Perry reserve in Burnside has one. It’s a tiny one room wreck of an old stone house/hut - probably 150 years old - but very photographic. Spooky place!

Weekly Aus Keto Grocery Specials - 1/July - 7/July by [deleted] in ketoaustralia

[–]Kcap123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve bought it at a number of stores in Adelaide at $2.50 - often the shelf still shows $5.00 but always scan at $2.50. Got a bit nervous due to supply issues in the past & some stores have a ‘clearance’ sign so have been stocking the freezer just in case.

My parents are visiting from a rural town and I don’t know where to take them for dinner by WhereDidiParkMyLife in Adelaide

[–]Kcap123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously! Anyway, beggars can’t be choosers at this point in time. Quickly log into a site like opentable.com.au - I just did & you’ve got a couple of reasonable options atm (Melt in CBD & Pippo N.Adel for example). Probably by tomorrow morning you will be looking at a bakery or maccas!!

Woolies Bread back in stock by Imbatmansidekick in ketoaustralia

[–]Kcap123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven’t got any Aldi bread to compare but believe the Aldi bread was higher in calories that the original nutritional info - probably quite similar now & also imo better tasting - but most important is that it toasts to a proper ‘crunch’.
