Eating A stick of Celery

[HOBIE]

If peckish try it 😎

Celery is one of the most disgusting tasting things known to mortal man, beaten only by the repugnant radish 😱

Agree about the celery, mega yuck! But, I just love radishes, I snack on them a lot and often have them in salads.

Oooh, I love celery but not by the stick - try eating it when you have lost your 4 front teeth at the bottom Hobie! We buy celery hearts to braise (or simmer!) to just eat as a normal veg. Luvverly! Radishes I do actually like - but unfortunately it turns into Heartburn Hotel in my tum!

A celery stick is great when cooking. Sprinkle with a little lemon juice and pepper sometimes.

I think exactly the same about Sticky Toffee Pudding cake Northy. If you want to loose weight try it. You loose weight just eating it. Good luck 🙂

I'm losing weight just thinking about it, making me feel ill! 😱 😉 I'm with you on the STP as well, yuck! 😱

 

[trophywench]

LOL at the STP - it's just FAR too sweet!

 

[HOBIE]

Go no give it a try 🙂

Or banoffee pie...yak! And I have a very sweet tooth...I tried eating raw celery recently, but it was like chewing a stick of metal. Hubby uses it in cooking every day, but raw...double yak!🙄

Do you use up more calories eating celery than you ingest, or is it a myth?

I'm not proposing to find out - celery is VILE

 

[trophywench]

Well raw celery I'm sure you must!

 

[HOBIE]

Celery soup is good too 🙂 & yes I have heard that you use more calories eating than it is giving you 😉

I'm sure I once read that grapefruit is also supposed to give you 'negative' calories. Why isn't it something yummy that has that effect? Celery URGH!

That's why people are the way they are ?😉

spread low fat pate or low fat cream cheese in the 'hollow' of the celery stick and then it's palatable 🙂

Sorry, @susieq67 I'm not convinced 😉

Regardless of calories (and I'm pretty sure it's a myth that you use more to chew and digest than you obtain), I like the crunchiness of celery stalks. Leaves taste nice, too eg steamed.

Add a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of freshly ground pepper.
Mmmmmmmmm.

Good that we are all different
