Is it possible to brew a beer to be a whole food?

Not while it contains alcohol.

Then, it shall never be done!

I find it interesting that the Nobel Prize-winning biochemist Arthur Kornberg used for his experiments on nutrition two and only two foods that contained all the necessary ingredients (vitamins and minerals) needed for growing organisms (such as rats and micro-organisms). The two foods are “liver extract” and “yeast”.

Beer and bread contain yeast. It’d be nice if the processing of these foods was done in such as way that none of the nutrition from the yeast was lost.

Most beer seems pretty ‘whole’ as beers go. What else were you looking for?

3Fs Rule. all the go round these parts apparently.

it’s some new diet fad that one of our forum members is trying. Can’t remember what the F’s stand for.

I’m not on any sort of healthy diet. No doubt when I keel over and get rushed to emergency the doctor will wrote 3 Fs on my file: “Fucken fucker is fucked”.

Any plant (and fungi) matter apart from starchy stuff and cereals (and fruit since fruit has its own F :)). It’s a weight loss diet I made up myself.

According to bubbles, foliage = gravy.

Gravy was only temporarily counted as foliage while used the last of my gravy.

Oh, and fish = chicken.

It’s a rich tapestry.

Fish = fish, skinless hen breasts and boiled or poached eggs.
