Food & Drink has the protein craze gone overboard?

All protein bars taste like trash in Europe. Stale protein + artifical sweetener + other small amounts of trash and minimal cocoa / dairy. Utter garbage. Protein drinks are fine.
 
What happened to just eating meat and eggs? Unless you're a huge competitive bodybuilder/strongman/powerlifter, do you really need to supplement protein?
 
Are that many people really eating so much protein that it’s a craze?
Maybe in bodybuilding circles or something. But I haven’t seen or read anything about excessive protein intake.

I think the real problem is synthetic testosterone injection. I think a lot of guys my age are doing it instead of just sacking up and training clean, and it’s making them stupid. I really think it makes people dumber.
 
I kind of understand people.
We all wanna be beefcake

Companies figured out you can put protein in processed shit and people will think it's healthy. I've legit heard a woman claim peanut M&Ms were healthy because of the protein.
 
Yes, it has gone overboard. Too much protein can cause health issues to your kidneys, digestive system, heart, and has side effects like kidney stones, diarrhea and constipation. Eat a healthy diet and stay away from powders and protein infused crap.
We’re just making shit up now huh?

Biggest difference between anyone who actually puts on muscle and people who do t is protein

Get that shit in your body by any means necessary
 
I don’t think so. It’s pretty simple. Get 4g of protein per lb of body weight to maintain your Sherdog figure.
 
Nope, never heard of a puff bar.

I imagine they are even more expensive here. They are usually $55 a box but they occasionally go to $25-30 per box so i stock up.

Musashi has a 40% off end of year sale so I bought another 15 boxes.

In a zombie apocalypse, I'll probably be fine for the first 6 months or more :)
And jacked!
