Welcome @ASHISH JOSHI Glad you decided to quit...best thing you can do for yourself! We all know how difficult it is in the beginning, but it does get easier the longer you go without smoking!! We are here to support you! You can do it!

@Paul723 .... here are a recipies I've found, might give you an idea of quantity comparisons... Queensland Country Women's association... Ingredients: ½ cup macadamias, roughly chopped ¼ cup sunflower seeds ⅓ cup sesame seeds ¼ cup cumin seeds 2 tablespoons ground coriander 2 teaspoons ground lemon myrtle ½ teaspoon vegetable stock powder Method: PREHEAT frypan over medium heat. TOAST macadamias, sunflower seeds and sesame seeds for approximately 5 minutes or until lightly toasted. TRANSFER to a plate to cool. COMBINE all ingredients in large bowl and mix well. STORE in an airtight container. ... so that is a bulk quantity recipie... Based on the flavours i taste in the one I use, Swap the cummin seeds for 1/4 cup linseed and 1/4 cup millet seeds... I like vorriander (chilantro) so i'd leave it.. . But you could swap that for 1 tble spoon each oregano and either thyme or rosemary... and add a 1/2 table spoon of lemon zest

@Paul723 ... i buy mine from a little ild lady at the farmers market ... cos its gluten free.... in Australia ingredients need to be listed from highest concentration to lowest... Crushed macadamia nuts (5%), Sesame seeds, linseed, salt, millet seed, lemon zest, lemon myrtle (1%), sunflower seeds, herbs and spices (i'm guessing rosemary, oregano and pepper).

Tell me about macadamia and lemon myrtle dukkah please, ratio?

@Reciprocity From memory (cos I can't eat meat anymore) its gamiers than beef. Unless you are stewing it, you have to cook it rare to medium rare or its like chewing leather but cooked right its texture is similar to beef. It is very lean and 96% fat free naturally. From memory closer to water buffalo in taste than beef.

For either @notsmokinjo and or @Cbdave ... What is Kangaroo like to eat? Is it similar to beef or is it more of a "gamie flavour? Icurious as to what it's like taste and texture wise?

Cooked dinner tonight and thought, @Cbdave would be proud of the cook on that roo.... Have the kid over (would you believe she's 20!, and cooked .... Skippy (kangaroo) steak for her, oven roasted mushrooms for me on a bed of steamed spinach with a cocolate port and plum jus, sprinkled with maccadamia and lemon myrtle dukka, beetroot 3 ways (ok so I technically didn't cook some of it, beetroot hummus, roast beetroot and cubes of pickled beetroot, carrots, and oven roasted cubes of purple on the outside sweet potato.

NOPE!

Welcome @ASHISH JOSHI! Quitting may be tough at first, but it will ultimately be a true gift. In addition to the health benefits of quitting you’ll feel so justifiably proud of your achievement. Stay strong, stay busy, and learn all you can about addiction. It will help you fight to protect you quit when temptations arise. You can do this!

Holy moly I forgot my own ginormous milestone!!! Thank you all for the kind wishes!!! So many that acknowledged this milestone- held my hand through turbulent times! I applaud you!! I’m sad that my fellow ButtKicker Jillar isn’t here to celebrate with me. She’d be cheering and toasting as always! 10 years. Dang. Yay me! Yay support from you! Smoke? N.O.P.E.!

Welcome on board the Quit Train @ASHISH JOSHI ! Glad to hear you have made a wise decision to take back your life and put smoking behind you. It's not easy but it IS possible. Be determined and keep yourself busy. Keeping your mind busy helps keep it off smoking. Stick around on the train and get support from others who are quitting or who have already quit. They understand what you are going through🙂

Nope for the first day of autumn!
