/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I came here to write a legitimate reply but honestly the post is just propping up all the worst case scenarios for the argument.

I was given lots of utensils for free, and feed my family of three for 200USD a month via homecooking. You have to use foods that make sense... I can get a bag of onions (3lbs) for one dollar. I can get a bag of potatoes (10lbs) for five dollars.

Its like you are going through a billion hoops to get to - "I just turned 18 and have nothing and must start from scratch and thats it." and that is not even remotely the case for most people. I mean fucks sake I grow a ton of herbs for free because they just come back every year whether I want them or not.

You say idiotic shit like table salt versus sea salt, what? if youre poor you get the cheapest one and some pepper and thats all. You automatically forfeit the fucking saffron. I live on a huge budget and I still get olive oil because I can buy it once a year in the big "Buy a gallon of Bertoulli get one free" thing. Its about not being a fucking imbecile and accepting you are fucked and have to eat cheaper.

If youre using the same set of shit for over a decade why havent you made changes in your life to accommodate I dunno, five dollars a fucking month to get a new pan one year? Really? You're trying to say youre so poor you cant do anything at all to change your life and save money for over a decade? And its all to validate fast food over prep?

I guess if you finish with "I buy recipe books" instead of "I use google for five seconds" and sign off with "Calories = health so Mcdolan's is the best" then the criteria shouldnt be lazy or poor, it should be stupid.
