The term "clean" itself is silly. Learn that, too.
I'm talking about no preservatives, etc. but I still feel like shit right now after that. it was dumb

Lots of salt in that bacon. Which is a preservative

I often eat fruit and nuts as i put them in the healthy category. and i don't mean peanuts as they are not nuts and have a fair amount of omega 6's.

Mre's, high density crackers and cheese. Hard tack bread.
MRE Cheddar Cheese Spread - 24 Pack https://a.co/d/90EQOSY

MRE Crackers - 50 Pack https://a.co/d/6L1TjaT
actually, cheddar is good, but I never got it why it's so often sold when it's one of the most fat cheeses I know. If you buy a standard Eidam, gouda, german, polish etc. cheeses, they tend to be less fat and salty.
I mean...there's always this fight against obesity declared by authorities, but then, in the shops, I find often the most fat or high sugar things :)

Because they taste good.
Never tried Irish porter cheese. I may pass off looks alone.

I often find myself low on my fat at the end of the day, but not so low I cold eat bacon!

I keep a jar of peanut butter around for this emergency. Usually I eat the powered peanut butter, but the real stuff has it's place, as everyone else said.

Second this. Are you washing your food like a little racoon?

Why the need for high calorie shit when you're "bulking" (another asinine term). It doesn't take much to get in 200-300 extra calories. Tell me you don't have room for an extra banana. That's what, 120 right there. In 40 years of training I have yet to see the benefit of eating in a 500+ calorie surplus versus a 200-300 calorie surplus. It's call bodybuilding, not fat building. No reason to pork up for 3 months only to spend the next 9 leaning out. Not a healthy approach to getting bigger.

I agree with everything you are saying. I dont like "bulking" or trying to gain weight by eating a huge calorie surplus. I'm not even on gear. However the night where I posted this thread I needed like 1000+ calories because I really came up short during the day.

Everybody has a day like that occasionally. Coming up short a day or long a day isn't going to make a difference in the wash. If you have a day like that just get back on track the next day.

I like to have fried chicken, but if I am considering a healthy diet, then boiled chicken with salad and dressing could be my choice.

10 Gluten free crackers with coldcuts goat cheese tomato and cucumber.

Or if pressed for time I'll eat my wife's pussy. Only if it's clean calories.
I don't do the dirty calories. Tastes like shit.
