You're Dave Palumbo's boy hahah never tried it (and you can't even buy it here) so i go with extra virgin olive oil (that i know it's not fake) and sometimes, pumpkin seed oil (very intense taste)
Just have grown not a fan of it anymore. Just on a salmon kick!
OH man Mac oil is the best thing ever. I cannot believe I waited this long to try it.
niice...especially granola and cereals, eating 75-100 carbs from them is almost to easy
when you consume "dirtier carbs" would you say that is better to consume them peri (pre and/or post) workout? so that they can be better utilized
I would not call those sources dirty carbs at all. Again they have more nutrient denseity to them they say rice. Rice has nothing to it but starch, same with pasta. They are both nutrient void. Some cereal's, granola, and trail mix contain a good chunk of fiber and also have a lot of vitamins and minerals associated with them.
90% of our diet is going to be healthy protein & Fat sources with a combination of carbs (potatoes, veggies, fruits etc) throwing in different sources is all about how you digest them, utlize them, and how much flexibility you have to include various sources based off what the mirror and scale shows.
Now people who eat upward to 400-500g of carbs. Eat nothing but oats and potatoes and you may want to visit your toilet every 2 hours about ready to blow up haha. There is a fine line of flexibility and sources to be used to help reach your intake based off what your caloric consumption is.
had a "high carb" yesterday and this morning my weight actually dropped
and today i'm hungry AF
Carbs can help speed up leptin levels, thyroid, and hormones which increase fatloss or promote weight loss (even in a dieting phase).
Carbs don't stick as heavy as fat sources do either (some people digest them much better then a heavier fat diet). This is why bodybuilding is not so black and white. Too many ways to utilize carbs, or other sources in your offseason or pre-contest to give you the most optimal results in and out of the gym.

Man, have to say... those are really good insights.
Do you prefer "faster carb sources" for off season bc they are (for most of the people) easier to digest?

Those aren't faster carb sources because here is why.
You realize the GI system is flawed because it is based off the carb source eaten by itself.
99% of the time you will eat carbs with protein, a fat source, or both which drastically lowers it. Again you are eating healthy for 90% of your intake, if you think a small variance in food sources is going to make a drastic difference in the big picture your mistaken. You want to utilize sources that digest well, sit on your stomach, and help you reach your intake. You can take a GDA but its not necessary. I rather see you put the money towards your essentials --> Whey, Pak, Flex, Omega
