you're the real mvp here

/ck/ used to have a drawfag. I miss them.

I'd totally be willing to be a part of a /ck/ wiki/sticky revival. I'll start documenting things that people suggest here, such as recommended cookbooks, cooking blogs, television/online cooking series, even links to archived posts so that I could clean them up and add context to them to make them useful for newfags.

I adore this board and all it faults and I believe that with a few anons' effort we could maybe improve the general discourse of this place.

Hi, /ck/ newfag. Welcome to our wonderful and sometimes-shitty board! Here's some tips:
>don't start America vs. Europe threads, those suck and are only good for /int/-tier shitposting. (Be aware of "Does America/Europe/Tajikistan really x?" threads)
>tipping threads are also basically going to devolve into us vs. them shitposting
>mentioning Chicago deep dish pizza in any capacity is going to be taken as a meme, and it will be hard to steer the topic seriously
>people here tend to call food trends or popular foods "meme foods" because 4chan is usually counter-culture and contrarian, don't take it seriously or personally
>there seems to be a great divide in American food culture over Urban vs. Rural (coasties vs flyovers) getting roped into that is a waste of energy
>mentioning veganism (and to a much-lesser extent, vegetarianism) will pretty much derail the thread and inspire deep hatred from everyone involved while convincing nobody to change their opinions
>there's generally always an alcoholic thread up, but if you want to actually talk about how alcohol tastes, make a new thread
>OC is pretty much always a good idea, good start on that, btw

Some memes:
>Ja/ck/ posting - some fat fuck with a youtube channel that puts out embarrassingly bad videos of him attempting to cook basic food in earnest
>'go'za - Chicago deep dish
>for me, it is the McChicken - from some serious food reviewer that claims the McChicken is the best fast food sandwich
>ReviewBrah - some fag who reviews junk food on youtube
>various Gordon Ramsay/Alton Brown shit
>old memes - milk steak & jelly beans, dessert ramen, WA LA!. chicken nugger, general Guy Fieri bullshit, etc.

Have fun, anon! There's lot more I'm forgetting out, and I'm sure someone will point that out

If you don't like how something you make/cook tastes, do you keep eating it so you don't waste it, or do you toss it?

OP, to avoid having over/undercooked food even while following good recipes, you need to learn about accurately judging food temperature during cooking. My recommendation is to get a decent insta-read thermometer and take the guess work out of it completely.

If you don't want to cough up 80-100 bucks on a Thermapen, which is the best you're gonna get outside of a lab, then get the ThermoPop, which is still made by the same company and only 20-30 buckaroos.

Once you learn about what food looks and feels like at particular temps, you'll intuitively gain that vague and mystical 'feel' that all the chefs meme over. But in this case, you won't waste or ruin a lot of food trying and learning.

Good on you for learning and taking feedback, keep trying.

ITT: Post your recipes and I will critique them

I worked at McDonalds for about a year and a half but I got fired. Now I just kind of stay home all day. Go ahead, try me.

It's 2015 and you still make threads that bait people into arguing rather than trying to start a proper discussion and contributing to the recently decline of this board.

Me too.
Can you imagine how bad /ck/ would be if he was welcomed? We would be full of fat cunts from /fit/ posting endless chicken breast and tuna patty recipes.

Fortunately the purge stopped that.

Leave.

>be OP
>make thread on /ck/ as an excuse to shitpost about your boring life

Please leave.

Once upon a time, /ck/ used to be well moderated. I don't know why it still isn't. It's such a small board.

I hope you fuckers are remembering to report this shit.

I love you, man.

You guys taught me how to cook and were there for me when I was going through a lot of personal shit. I've learned a lot. Thank you for being an endless source of frustration, laughter and awesome.

You can just make your own. I made last year's mugs on Zazzle using an edited version of the attached pic.

>It's not like it has a picture of some famous girls tiny feet.
lol. If you were allowed to sell those on 4chan I feel like it would make a killing.

Who cares about what other boards think?
