I have no idea what you are trying to say here?
However, on the subject of nutrition, I've been trying to eat maximally nutritious food on account of the calorie restriction. So I decided to make a tasty lentil soup to which I add spinach. I go to the store and five pound bags of baby spinach are on sale. Only $0.50 more than 10 oz bags of baby spinach. So I course I buy the 5 pound bag. Spinach in my salad, spinach in my lentil soup, spinach on my pizza, sautéed spinach. I'll be damned but the two of us may actually polish off a 5 pound bag of spinach in a week.
Then I was reading about nuts on line and I come across this incredible recipe for Salted Caramel Almond Butter. Clever clever recipe that is homemade almond butter sweetened not with caramel but softened dates, which really do have a delicious caramel flavor. Roasted salted almonds, softened dates, a little milk and some salt. That stuff is like crack. You don't want it around if you're trying to diet.
