Bloukrans Posted October 22, 2014 Share I recently stopped at Dassiesfontein on the N2 for breakfast - has some very nice "mielie meel pap" - used to have it when I grew up. Anyone eating mielie meel pap instead of oats before a race or training? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grebel Posted October 22, 2014 Share Yip. It's a nice change from oats. I use the yellow mielie meal. Great taste! Normal Ace if I can't get the yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyK Posted October 22, 2014 Share I thought about it but mielie meel pap is high gi. Secondly It doesn not have the nutritional value that oats and meusli have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJacques Posted October 22, 2014 Share I thought about it but mielie meel pap is high gi. Secondly It doesn not have the nutritional value that oats and meusli have. And most of it is genetically modified maize Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieVlieg Posted October 22, 2014 Share I actually joked with my Wife then girlfriend that I am not marrying a woman that can't make mieliepap. Both of us have our days with it but got married anyway and actually together sort of got it under the knee lately. Just saying but I get mieliepap texture with Futurelife, that granular texture. I do carbs only on race days and in between and on training days when I exceed a threshold where I need to replenish my energy levels. But when I have more than one off days or just do normal training that do not push my limits I skip carbs / starch altogether Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
