/ck/ - Food & Cooking

>sandwich section
>dish includes chips as a side
>fries are an upcharge
>literally nobody wants chips over fries so this is basically just a way to pretend the meal is $2 cheaper

should be a legally punishable offense

>go out to eat with a bunch of people
>many of them order personal appetizers and some of the most expensive items on the menu with upcharge add-ons, desserts, after-dinner coffees
>order so much alcohol that it nearly doubles the bill alone
>I order a modest dish and no drinks at all (had to drive somewhere after there)
>comes time to pay
>"alright, we're all good with an even split, right?"
>suggest that I am not, indicating I didn't drink and got one thing
>everyone looks at me like I am an asshole and causing problems and complications because I don't want to pay like three times the amount I should

I really do loathe human beings. Never in my life would I do this to someone

Why aren't there more places with a baseball stadium like food selection? I want some greasy nachos with my hotdogs, damnit. Is it more common in the midwest and eastern parts of the US?

Food and politics are inseparably intertwined. It's like complaining about politics on /k/. Why do you think you see so much "Do Americans really do this?" shitposting on this board, to a greater deal than most others?
Food is home. Food is culture. Wars have been fought over it, and the restriction or famine of it has been the cause of some of the deadliest genocides on this planet, inevitably shaping the history and politics of today.
In the US alone, there are bans or restrictions on food that have existed for generations, purely for political reasons. The American diet had been shaped into its current form through generations of war and rationing. New, artificial conveniences brought about by the space race and nationwide drive towards the "future" became fashionable. Women being ushered into the workforce meant entire generations were raised on take-out and fast food, and the passing of the cooking baton from generation to generation got lost in the process.

Basically, ur a homo.

What about sodas? I had one (from Hardee's), after a long long time. I was shocked at how watered down it was. Are different chains consistently better or worse at this? Does it depend more on the location and shift?

Heresy.

>work in grocery store
>stocking up the frozen food section, 10 cases of lean cuisine and hungry man
>enormous landwhale nurse on her way to work walks over to my freshly stocked shelves and buys 20 boxes of lean cuisine and 20 boxes of hungryman
>mfw when people actually kill there bodies with this shit

>tuna mold

Because I'm going to go to a cocktail party where they serve tuna.

That's like going to a steak house and ordering a hamburger.

Look at where it was packaged and compare it to a regular name brand item. They come from the same fucking place. Eggs and milk from the same farm, canned goods from the same plant in the same state.
