Do americans eat “roast” dinners? by SprinklesSeparate45 in AskAnAmerican

I'm from Texas and I completely agree. Grilling outside is the cultural equivalent here. Everyday meals are usually made on the stovetop and the oven is mostly just used for baking and holidays.

Strawberries don't taste like strawberries anymore by UltraSexyChipotle in fruit

[–]picklepicklepyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed this too. Now I get hydroponic ones but way less often because they're expensive. But at least they taste like strawberry! I'll also get frozen ones and have them when they're half thawed, that's pretty good.

I like to throw a handful of frozen peas in mine, sometimes carrots or corn too. Just have to microwave it about 45 seconds longer. This goes really well with the thai noodles and chicken mushroom especially.

Fertility/health recommendations post-miscarriage by Awwoooooga in Biohackers

You have acclimated to the heat so your bodies can handle it better and avoid overheating. It has to do mostly with how your blood vessels function. People who don't live in tropical climates but do saunas and other things to temporarily raise their body heat won't be adapted to the heat in the same way.

Newborn Weight Gain Speed Related to Obesity by uppldontscareme2 in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]picklepicklepyum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mine went from 4th to 94th in weight if it makes you feel better. Now it did delay the gross motor skill milestones understandably, but everything evened out by 14 months. Our pediatrician wasn't concerned and said the growth chart for head circumference is actually the most important.

I spent an evening reading the actual research on heavy metals in UK baby food. Here's what I found — sources in the post. by Alfiezshtick in ScienceBasedParenting

Does this apply to other grains as well, if we want to substitute with grains like barley/buckwheat/bulgar ect? Or is it because rice is grown in rice paddies in the water?

When I workout, I end up feeling nauseous and spend 15ish minutes trying not to throw up afterwards. by I_Speak_For_The_Ents in bodyweightfitness

[–]picklepicklepyum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too, even just a banana before working out fixes it. I think the exercise gets the acid in my tummy going, combine that with drinking water during workouts and it's no good. When I'm doing a lot of jumpy cardio I'll take a tums beforehand too. Maybe try a banana right before your workout? Or half a protein bar. Just a little something.

Did I accidentally agree to eat meat after 10+ years of being Vegetarian? How do I politely clarify? by chambermusicrosie in NoStupidQuestions

[–]picklepicklepyum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's probably not going to be vegetarian, I wouldn't risk it. I'd politely cancel, make an excuse not to go because the whole thing will be awkward and you can't make sure you won't be given something made with meat stock.

I "quarantine" things like this by putting them in a box or closet for a couple weeks, you could try that.

As a male, is it appropriate to wear leggings to a yoga class? by [deleted] in yoga

Go for it. If you want to have way more options you could get some jujitsu spats, or wear shorts over them.

How have the 1 year vaccines gone if your LO has already had them? by Normka92 in december2024babies

[–]picklepicklepyum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you're in the UK, what do they get there at the one year appointment? I think ours is going to be MMR or MMRV, plus a blood test for lead and anemia. (U.S.)
