- goldcd 7y agoYou're clearly not imagining a pomme-puree, from a decent potato, dollop of butter (hopefully with some sea-salt), decent coarse grind of Tellicherry black pepper... ...I'm always bemused that consumers of "sports supplements" seem to delight in them being processed to shit (and are often eaten the same people who'll get picky over the provenance of restaurant food).
- ra1n85 7y agoAnd I’m glad I’m not imagining it because room temperature butter that has congealed and separated from a starch sounds awful to eat while you’re strenuously exercising. Bemuse yourself to your heart’s delight - savory, buttery, starches don’t sound like a good idea when the blood has been shuttled from your digestive tract to your skeletal muscle and your body heat is several degrees above average.
