Listening to our Breakfast Bonus podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Today.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
We're talking about how eating habits changed during winter. I,
for some reason, in the evenings, and I don't know
if it's just me, I get hungrier in the evenings
when it's winter. What is there?
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Yeah, it's kind of a weird phenomenon, isn't it. I
think obviously there's the hot versus the cold food. Right
in the middle of summer, when it's really a hot climate,
you don't feel like a big, heavy roast dinner, so
you're more likely to have warmer foods, so things like roasts,
things like soups.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
I'd never would you ever have soup in summer?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I honestly, I hardly ever eat soup unless it is
maybe the really bowels of winter, because for me, soup's
not a meal, and I've been a real snob about
that for years.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
The same at least I have lashings of bread and butter.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Yeah it's a starter. Okay, maybe I'll have the soup
as a starter, but it's not a meal. Some people
love it, like Mama makes an amazing vegetable soup and
my wife that makes this incredible pumpkin soup, and that's
that's quite a meal.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
But otherwise you don't count it.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I don't count know.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
But it's just like I don't really eat salad in
winter either. That's such a summer food. I'd be more
likely to have, you know, just vegetables in general, roast vegetables.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Yes, I've reteamed broccoli.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Or some people do like a big steak, a big
old steak and only have like salad on the side
for me as sellas a summer meal. So if you
have a steak, suddenly now it's going to be a
cubitta mash or something like that.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Yeah, with the steak, you know, So listen to this.
I've just found these stats.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Studies have found that participants who and this is thousands
of people consumed an average of eighty six more calories
per day in winter compared to summer, and ate more
saturated fan in the winter.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
So what is it in our comfort food? We just
feeling rule just reached the bad stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Maybe I reckon it might be the fact that we
eat more sauces over winter, sort of gravyes and things.
It feels it feels like over I don't know. It
feels like fresh food is easier to consume in summer.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Maybe that's or are we just telling ourselves that.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Maybe I don't know what it is. I don't normally
have a sweet tooth, right, but in winter I'll get
a bad after dinner everything started, everything, And I normally
I used to fast quite a lot, right, But in winter,
I'm finding myself craving chocolates.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I probably have more sweet things in summer because like
in winter, I'll have a cup of tea after dinner,
whereas I don't feel like tea in summer because it
feels like it's too hot, right, right, right, Yeah, I'll
probably have more alcohol in summer.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
I'm actually not drinking a lot of alcohol at the moment,
is that right?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
See? A couple of my friends have started drinking whiskey
during winter because the friends a good whisky ice in
the glass and the tumbler and in front of a
roaring fire, and it sounds nice, it sounds romantic. But
I'm like, it's good.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
It's a good option.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Cowl wise, isn't it drinking the straight whiskey over that
big calorie.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Laden glass of pinot the barbacue I.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Throw to Okay, So do you have cold desserts in winter,
like things like ice cream or are you more likely
to have than in summer?
Speaker 2 (02:49):
More likely in summer?
Speaker 4 (02:50):
Same, yeah, ice creams. I would never have a nice
block in winter.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Almo's like a steam pudding with custard at the time
of the year. But again I haven't done that either.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Yeah yeah, oh yeah, like I produced Rosy said, like
apple crumble, I'm not a hot dessert person sticky date puddings.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
I mean, I'd eat it, of course, but I think I'm.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
So much of a cold dessert person. I'm more likely
to up the carbon take in winter than I am.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Desserts definitely.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
And I think you're right when you see before the
breads and things. Suddenly I don't normally a lot of breads,
but now I'm eating breads your soup. You're right, you
gonna laider up a big old slab of bread.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
How's this? Then in winter I'll have a glass of peanot.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
In summer, no way, it's it's save blanc, it's rose,
it's a ciptail, it's a gin.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
It's the same with mulled wine, right, like muld wine.
That's a winter drink. I host a pub quiz every
week on a Wednesday night and they do a homemade
mulled wine. Then you can smell it wafting through the
whole place.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
You're not having mulled wine summer, are you?
Speaker 3 (03:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (03:42):
You're not?
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Okay, here's another one for what are foods that transfer seasons, right,
so you will equally eat them in summer and winter.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
I've already thought of one.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Same go.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Because you think about it.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
You eat a burger at a barbecue in summer and
then you're eating a homemade wintry burger in winter.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
They're seasonal, but I think it still crosses over.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
It crosses corn. Yeah, more likely to have corn on
the cob and some of that.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, true, But I mean there frozen corner stuff. That's
a lot of meals and things. So corn for me,
it's that's that's transfer over.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Sausages, bangers and mash in winter, sausage and bread on
your barbie in summer.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah, yep, yep.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
What else is there that crosses?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Would you do a curry in summer as well as winter?
Speaker 4 (04:27):
You never never eat a curry in summer? You would
not know we do?
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
I think I would.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
I mean, I would like, if you put a curry
in front of me, I'd eat it. But I'm not
going to go, oh, what do we feel like for
dinner tonight? I'm more like he could probably have Japanese
or something lighter.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yeah, okay, And then drinks, excuse you, like so it
has to be like a warm wine on like a
cold chilled wine.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
And winter more likely to beat the peanot. Do you
know what I would never have in summer? Mashed potato?
Wouldn't It's only winter food for me.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I think I would do mass buds in winter.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
I reckon it's like potato salad, maybe some wedges the size.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I find it easier to work out during summercause I
get outside a lot more. Yes, And that's my problem.
I I'll go and it's freezing cold, like you know,
I've got forty five minutes and this big open cavenists
gym and it's like, oh, this isn't warman here. I mean,
you warm up by you we're working out, but it's
harder to do it.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
And I think the incidental exercise over the summer is
definitely more of a thing because you might be just
you're at the beach and you're just a bit more.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
So if we've done a case so we're a little
bit lazier, we'll eat more in winter. I hope.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Yeah, just so, let's just hope that September comes around fast.
