Kraft dinner with tuna for bulking

Okay..
I know I'm gonna catch hell
but I really like kraft dinner mixed in with a can of tuna
It's easy to make and its easy to digest And its got a shitload of calories
Or is it just too damn many high GI carbs? What about on cycle?
Any thoughts? Or maybe something similar but better for me?

1/4 cup milk
2.5 oz hard cheeses(cheddar, sharp, colby, meaunster)

80g carbs, 45g carbs, 21g fat= about 700 calories.

Dude, don't eat chunk white, or albacore. It contains way to much mercury.

I thought that the chunk variety of tuna were the smallest kind of tuna, which leads them to have the lowest levels of mercury. Am I thinking of some other kind of tuna?

Apparently all tuna contains high amounts of mercury. Chunk White is synonymous with albacore... I thought...

It is only a real issue if you are a pregnant female or if you are a young growing child... For everyone else you don't need to get too worried.

From the FDA:
Quote:
What You Need to Know About Mercury in Fish and Shellfish
2004 EPA and FDA Advice For:
Women Who Might Become Pregnant, Women Who are Pregnant, Nursing Mothers, Young Children

Fish and shellfish are an important part of a healthy diet. Fish and shellfish contain high-quality protein and other essential nutrients, are low in saturated fat, and contain omega-3 fatty acids. A well-balanced diet that includes a variety of fish and shellfish can contribute to heart health and children's proper growth and development. So, women and young children in particular should include fish or shellfish in their diets due to the many nutritional benefits.

However, nearly all fish and shellfish contain traces of mercury. For most people, the risk from mercury by eating fish and shellfish is not a health concern. Yet, some fish and shellfish contain higher levels of mercury that may harm an unborn baby or young child's developing nervous system. The risks from mercury in fish and shellfish depend on the amount of fish and shellfish eaten and the levels of mercury in the fish and shellfish. Therefore, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are advising women who may become pregnant, pregnant women, nursing mothers, and young children to avoid some types of fish and eat fish and shellfish that are lower in mercury.

By following these 3 recommendations for selecting and eating fish or shellfish, women and young children will receive the benefits of eating fish and shellfish and be confident that they have reduced their exposure to the harmful effects of mercury.

Do not eat Shark, Swordfish, King Mackerel, or Tilefish because they contain high levels of mercury.

Eat up to 12 ounces (2 average meals) a week of a variety of fish and shellfish that are lower in mercury.

Five of the most commonly eaten fish that are low in mercury are shrimp, canned light tuna, salmon, pollock, and catfish.

Another commonly eaten fish, albacore ("white") tuna has more mercury than canned light tuna. So, when choosing your two meals of fish and shellfish, you may eat up to 6 ounces (one average meal) of albacore tuna per week.

Check local advisories about the safety of fish caught by family and friends in your local lakes, rivers, and coastal areas. If no advice is available, eat up to 6 ounces (one average meal) per week of fish you catch from local waters, but don't consume any other fish during that week.

Follow these same recommendations when feeding fish and shellfish to your young child, but serve smaller portions.

There is info about the amount in different fish: Contents in Fish

I regularly have a box of Velveta Shells & Cheese with a can of tuna with a little Dextrose sprinkled on top when I am bulking. That is a little over 1000cals and 100g of carbs right there, I believe. Good to the last drop.

Yea, the homemade route would be better. Those cheese packets have all kinds of fun stuff in them.
