Dh is complaining that I did miso soup for dinner. It contains a bunch of spring onions, garlic, ginger, two big sweet potatoes, chilli, 2 cups of peas, a bunch of coriander, seaweed, 100g of ground up seasme and a big spoon full of fresh live miso. That's a complete meal right?

I imagine the scope and quality of dietician qualifications is very variable.

Wow, 8 pages - haven't read them all

Love miso soup after my stealth boasty year in Japan Grin

Your soup sounds yummy, I'd be delighted if someone made that for me, but yes might be more filling and even better with some tofu or possibly noodles

Must make it more often - perfect for lunch - and use up that miso I've had in the fridge for yonks now

Oh...yes you are right sooty you can buy online courses on groupon...Wink

OP, You posted on here asking for people's opinions on whether they thought what you served for dinner was a complete meal and you've got your reply; the majority of people don't consider what you served a complete meal.

Why ask for people's opinions if you're going to tell them that their opinion is wrong?

So does "Dr" Gillian McKeith I hear. Doesn't mean you know fuck all about fuck all.

Eltonjohnsflorist · 14/02/2015 15:15

I think maybe OP thinks miso soup is a bit boosty even though it's very Gillian mckeith 2005 stylee

wanky London ingredients Grin.

If he is moaning, stop cooking for him. Your soup sounds nice and we often eat soup for dinner.

RJnomore · 14/02/2015 15:52

I absolutely refuse to believe that anyone who is trained as a dietician - which is very specific and not the same as a nutritionist - would describe noodles and bread as nutrient void.

They would for a start be very aware that bread in the uk is by law reinforced with Calcium, iron and b vitamins.

Op, I call you out for talking complete shite.

Dietician is a protected term, no? A properly quailifed and registered person?

Nutritionists are just self-applied labels. I'm a nutritionist, if I want to be.

Sound delish to me but my DH would rather starve. Or eat a whole dead cow. Preferably the latter.

magrate · 14/02/2015 18:02

So what if bread is enriched , you can get oreos enriched with vitamins and omega but they are still shit in a packet.

OP posts:
RJnomore · 14/02/2015 18:15

So your opinion, as a qualified dietician, is that a slice of wholemeal bread is similar in nutritional quality to a biscuit?

I repeat - I smell shite. Self-justifying, huffy shite at that.

Grin
magrate · 14/02/2015 18:22

I didn't say all shit had the same nutritional content Grin

Wow you're getting a hard time here.. Confused How on earth are you being smug and insinuating posters are fatsos!? Some very insecure and sensitive people on this thread. That sounds like a lovely meal to me! A nice chunky soup. We as a society are very used to adding something carby to every meal but I feel better without it.. would rather have more soup. If DH wanted more then add bread!

PekeandPollicle · 14/02/2015 19:18

Sweet potato in miso soup - not for me.

I'll stick with bread I've made (organic flour natch!!!) or a chip butty.

CalamitouslyWrong · 14/02/2015 20:56

Arf @ self-justifying huffy shite. Grin

I wouldn't be happy if I saw a nutitionist who categorised entire groups of foodstuffs (e.g. bread) as 'nutritionally void' with no thought to the fact that there are lots of different kinds of bread and that a single foodstuff or meal is meaningless other than in the context of a a whole diet and lifestyle.

This is just classic self-justifying AIBU backfiring. AIBU? yes. no I'm not! And so on.

grocklebox · 14/02/2015 22:38

The only shit around here is that that the OP is spreading all over the thread. She doesn't know nutrition from a hole in her arse.

limegoldfinewine · 16/02/2015 19:51

OP, I apologize for my earlier comment. I've read the rest of your posts and I should have stated you are making yourself look very thick.
