/ck/ - Food & Cooking

the kind you can yourself

I swear to Christ my friends are all retards.

They're always complaining that they're broke and yet they refuse to learn how to use a fucking mason jar. Every year I go to the farmer's market when tomatoes are in season and snag a dead hooker's weight in tomatoes for $20-$40, then spend a day chopping and jarring them.

I'm currently trying to convince my friends that in mid-August, when my reserves run out, they should join me in prepping some jars and make a day of it.

These retards will spend $2/lb or more on "fresh" tomatoes for their homemade pasta sauces and chilis when they could be getting the same thing for cents on the dollar if they had more foresight than a fucking goldfish.

Tell me you've got mason jars full of ingredients, /ck/.

i can my own meat, dry beans and fresh produce

it's about a brazilion times better than what you buy at the store..
eg: a bushel of tomatoes costs $10 at harvest and i get a years supply + some to give away.. no salt, no preservatives just delicious, cheap harvest tomatos
