Actually, making many different types of dishes is really simple with protein powders (casein and whey) in various amounts.

Post experiences with super cheap items. Warlmart.com has

a "personal blender" for $9.74;
a 6-speed blender for $14.92;
a similar to Magic Bullet, multiple cups and blades blender (though no whipping) for $20.96;
a stand-mixer for $16.62;
a French press (8 cup) for $17.88 – though a percolator seems an interesting alternative;
a toaster oven for $14.66; and
an electric grill for $9.00 (!, though I'm preferenced to flat cooking tops – and an 8" cast iron skillet is $9.90; or a 20" electric griddle is $18.96).

I'm really interested in a varied-utility blender. … Chopping almonds and other nuts, even making pastes; blending ice and other things such as stevia for interesting concoctions. Cooking has often been large periods of the day, making custards, cakes, cold iterations of similar – fudges, frostings, et al.

A). "Your body thinks its getting" is a really amateur perspective of how great the human body is. It's vague; and the controls on scholarly articles are plausibly minimalistic (vs. levels of nutrients and fitness; Pavlovian training for each of sugar and NNSs; et al.).

B). Stevia is a genus of the sunflower family (Asteraceae). It's flora.

C). It's also evidenced as *benefiting* satiety and metrics of blood.

>This study also had a number of strengths. First, both lean and obese individuals were included, increasing the generalizability of these findings. Second, food intake was directly measured, and satiety measurements were taken at identical time intervals as blood glucose and insulin levels. Third, a pilot study was initially conducted to determine the appropriate gram and calorie amounts to provide in the preloads. Moreover, all preloads were matched for gram weight, and the aspartame and stevia preloads were matched for caloric content.

>In conclusion, participants did not compensate by eating more at either their lunch or dinner meal and (!)reported similar levels of satiety when they consumed lower calorie preloads containing stevia or aspartame than when they consumed higher calorie preloads containing sucrose(!). Additionally, stevia preloads reduced postprandial blood glucose and insulin levels, suggesting stevia may assist with glucose regulation. These effects appear to be independent of reductions in caloric intake, as participants consumed similar calorie amounts in both the stevia and aspartame conditions.
