Synopsis[]
Octdoughberblessed continues as the 'boys are joined by Raj Desai (Triumph Election Special, I Love You, America) to review Loving Hut, a vegan chain dedicated to bringing peace, love, and harmony. Plus, a holy grail edition of The Wiger Challenge.
Nick's intro[]
A reading from the Bhagavad Gita, chapter 17 "Of Religion By The Threefold Kinds Of Faith", verse 7, Edwin Arnold translation:
"For like as foods are threefold for mankind
In nourishing, so is there threefold way
Of worship, abstinence, and almsgiving!
Hear this of Me! there is a food which brings
Force, substance, strength, and health, and joy to live,
Being well-seasoned, cordial, comforting,
The "Soothfast" meal*. And there be foods which bring
Aches and unrests, and burning blood, and grief
Being too biting, heating, salt, and sharp,
And therefore craved by too strong appetite.
And there is foul food - kept from over-night,
Savourless, filthy, which the foul will eat,
A feast of rottenness, meet for the lips
Of such as love the "Darkness."
This week on Doughboys, another edition of Octdoughberblessed, our month-long exploration of religious chain restaurants, with a vegan chain founded by Vietnamese spiritual leader Supreme Master Ching Hai, whose legend began when she used her third eye to reveal a copy of the Bhagavad Gita within a sealed box: Loving Hut.

| “ | I spent the last year fighting the 'battle of the bulge' and I'm doing pretty well. However, I, like Nick, enjoy an adult beverage now and again. The problem is I have trouble controlling what I eat when I'm intoxicated. Are there any healthy drunk foods? What are your favorites? | ” |
