The name is Grey. Gandalf the Grey.

1·2 months agoI totally get that. I was just saying that I can see why someone would not want to cook.

1·2 months agoHow are you making it? It could be good coffee. I use an Aeropress occasionally and it’s a decent sub for espresso.

3·2 months agoBut he’s been cooking all day. I know several cooks and chefs, and the last thing any of them want to do after a day of constant cooking is to go home and cook some more, even if it takes 10 min. Now are there better (healthier) options than Taco Bell? Sure, but maybe they just enjoy Taco Bell, and maybe it’s an occasional treat.

13·2 months agoPeople can cook for themselves, too, but sometimes they like to go out for food. Same with coffee. It can be nice to get out of the house and go for a cup of coffee, or grab a cup when you happen to be out. Ever tried making a cup of coffee on a road trip? Not impossible, but not super practical for most people. If you want a latte but you don’t own an espresso machine you’re kind of out of luck (unless you want to get an Aeropress). Anyway, there’s lots of reasons why you’d go to a coffee shop.

News@lemmy.world•Lead levels in protein powder, shakes flagged by Consumer Reports
0·5 months agoIt accumulates in bone, yes, but not all of it does. It also collects in blood and organs where it is passes fairly quickly. The FDA sets their guidelines based on safe blood levels of lead and their recommendation is I think 1/10 the actual value to build in a pretty big safety buffer.
We’re already exposed to lead constantly through the environment, etc. It’s not just present in foods and other man made things. It’s definitely in many of the foods we eat, not just protein powder. Root vegetables, grain crops, etc. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0963996920303951
I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad idea to try your best, but I also don’t think it’s worth stressing over with these protein powders compared to other stuff you may already be ingesting.

News@lemmy.world•Lead levels in protein powder, shakes flagged by Consumer Reports
0·5 months agoThis is not really a big deal.
https://news.immunologic.org/p/consumer-reports-latest-panic-toxic
The MADL for lead outlined by Proposition 65 is 0.5 µg of lead per day. This value was set, arbitrarily in 1989, even though scientific evidence continues to show that it’s wildly unrealistic and not remotely near an exposure that would be a health concern. It remains unchanged because Prop 65 is a political tool, not a scientific one. Consumer Reports decides to ignore FDA interim reference levels for lead in their assessment. These levels are 8.8 µg per day for reproductive age females and 12.5 µg for general adults, 17.6-times and 25-times higher daily exposure levels compared to the Prop 65 levels, respectively, and are already extremely conservative (more on how those are calculated in a moment).
Not saying you shouldn’t take it into consideration, but it’s not as big of a deal as CR is making it out to be.

I left them a 1 star review, too, but it was because of showing ads in their app. Unfortunately they’re the best headphones I’ve tried.
