Quite a high protein count! Might be useful for weight lifting, have me a look at that! 🙂
seriously guys, i’m a vegetarian. i don’t want anyone making them selves sick by trying fish food on account of my having a laugh. that said the stuff i found on wiki and on the back of the tub, about nutrition, was true. It probably is a superfood.
funny you should say this i’ve twice caught one of my kids with his hand in the tub and suspicious flakes and a guilty look all over his face.
he said ‘it tastes gooood’!. now we keep it out of his reach.
As far as protien is concearned, nutritional yeast (which looks remakably similar) is a better bet. you can get it in health shops. it is a superfood.
Marigold Engevita Nutritional Yeast Flakes 125g by Marigold from GoodnessDirect
DJCliffy, although it is 45% protien, dont get excited by this cause it is next to impossible to eat that much but it is an excellent addition to a health diet and stuffed full of B vits. If its new protien sources you want try these
1) quinoa a south american grain with 13% protien full essential ammino acid comlex and good carbs. rated by World health oranisation as same protien quality as milk. readily available in health food shops. boil it and use it like rice.
2) amaranth as above although difficult to prepare. tiny grain size of poppy seed. can be popped like popp corn and mixed with breakfast cereal.
3) mung dhal. not to be confused with mung beans which are green. this looks yellow and course. this is the stuff that puts hairs on the chests of sikhs (and they are hairy mofos) Its a pulse with 33% rather than the standard 22% dry weight protien that lentils have. make spicy dahl with it. use fresh yogurt to cool it down and serve it on quinoa and theirs a protien bomb.
4) chick pea floor (gram flour). a flour with 22% protien. make pancakes with it. 5 minute job. i got a recipie if you want.
5) soya nuts – taste dry and hard to eat but easy protien.

Nice one cheers for the info fella! :love:
sounds like something my Nan would say :laugh_at:
mung dhal is a split and hulled mung bean – a very versatile bean popular across the whole of Asia…
Mung bean – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I would think the best place for Cliffy to find any of this would be any decent Asian supermarket (the proper ones where you get a corner shop what is actually like the tardis with loads more space inside..), and takes stock from TRS (T R Suterwalla and Sons, Southall).
it is possible to make dhal from whole mung beans as well

better than eating plankton – IMO better off leaving that in the sea for the fishies
