/ck/ - Food & Cooking

>>10848415
Completely agree.

>>10848415
It's just association mentality and self esteem nonsense. If group Y likes [x], and you like [x], there's statistically a chance that you're part of group Y. Of course, if you had no shame/was smart, you'd just consume it either way because you do you and all that nonsense. But these days people are too feeble and cling to tightly to their position in society, so they'll take any route they can to not be associated with something they don't want to be associated with.

>>10848415
fucking based.

>>10848415
Usually refers to limo liberal trust fund babbie's buying cheap cuts to be "chic" and "in touch" and "grunge", driving the price up because they keep buying the inferior stuff even as the price raises. Like for beef tips and some offal. Pawn shops charging $10 for t shirts instead of $1 is a similar phenomenon.
Kind of like gentrification, but you can't cash out when the property tax gets obscene.
I don't really complain regardless. I believe in the free market and "capitalism is the worst, but only if you ignore the rest." But it does suck prices take one hundred times longer to go down compared to going up.

>>10848477
To add, a big part of this is lots are know-nothing Stalinists larpers that want to pretend to be the working class they pretend to represent.
Like the guys that wear Che shirts while attending concerts twenty times a year with music Che would call "imperialist propaganda."

>>10848415
what food item for example?

>be "ethnic" in america
>foods i consume traditionally are super cheap here cuz americans don't traditionally eat them
>suddenly... HIPSTERS!
>they discover the things I eat
>they buy it lots
>price goes up because supply/demand
>other foods are now cheaper than the ones I eat
>abandon those foods because I'm too much of a miser to justify buying it anymore at that price point
One of those foods is oxtail. Filet motherfucking mignon (fillet steak) is cheaper than oxtail now because oxtail never goes on offer and filet does a few times a year. Oxtail is always $7.99/lb now while filet mignon can drop to $6.99.

Another example:
>another ethnicity with cooking similar to my ethnicity is better represented in my city than mine is
>there's a restaurant they all like
>eat there lots. it's mostly that ethnicity with a couple whitemericans every now and then
>suddenly... HIPSTERS
>that cuisine become fashionable
>a dozen new restaurants open
>the one i like loses customers
>several months pass and there are a few loyalists to the old restaurant, myself included
>not making enough money to support itself anymore
>owner gets discouraged and food quality starts to slip
>fewer and fewer people go, so owner reduces hours
>finally, restaurant closes
>try a few of the new places, all owned, run and patronised by hipsters
>none of them speak the language because lolamericans
>the food's all crap
>few years later, the fad is over
>all those restaurants close
But the one i liked won't reopen. : (

>>10848415
Hipsters ruined "throw-away" cuts. Ox tail or pig ear is fucking ridiculous now.

>>10848700
See >>10848695
I know that feel. : (
Tongue used to be $1.99/lb. Now it's $7.99.

>>10848704
Where did you live that tongue was ever not a premium cold cut?

>>10848683
'cados, for 'xample

>>10848721
10 years ago when it was considered garbage meat

>>10848721
Not cold-cut. Raw tongue. Used to buy it $1.99/lb. Never had it as a cold-cut outside of a meat jelly thing. Which I can't find here. Is that what you mean? And if so, where can I find it?

>>10848415
Wrong, they ruined tacos. They are so easy to make good, but here come the hipsters with their kimchi fusion bullshit.

Sure tacos are still fine as long as a hipster doesn't get involved.

>>10848774
>Sure tacos are still fine as long as a hipster doesn't get involved.
So they were ruined how?

>>10848778
Because he eats exotic cum.

>>10848778
>That will be $4 a taco. Would you like another or are you an uncivilized pleb?

Stop being a millennial apologist.

I'm only upset because it makes the things I like expensive

>>10848786
Stop going to restaurants you don't like you fucking retard

>>10848792
inflation is a bitch

>>10848695
>types a lot
>still no real reason to be upset

>>10848794
>restaurants

>>10848797
It's not inflation because that's based on interest rates and the amount of hard currency in the economy. It's just supply and demand.

>>10848808
Stop going to food trucks you know you don't like


How fucking unbelievably stupid are you?

>>10848820
fine

learn how to cook and don't invite hipsters over
you are posting on a cooking board afterall

>>10848803
>price of food he eats goes up 302%
>restaurants serving his cuisine all close
>both outcomes are direct result of hipster involvement
>"hipsters dindunuffin!!!"
Go back to your brownstone, Topher. Or wherever you assholes live nowadays.

>>10848683
Beer

>>10848683
Korean BBQ

>>10848778
mini tacos at restaurants are pure faggotry

>>10848797
Food is actually inflating fast the past six years. But I wouldn't doubt hipsters making cheap foods expensive contributed heavily to this.
Modern """liberals""" destroy everything they pretend to love. It all ends up homogenized and overpriced, and they move onto the next victim county, leaving extra "diversity" and taxes in their wake.

>>10848839

nobody has the power to ruin grilled meat, it's just too primal. it's literally the reason we evolved from monkeys.

We now have no friends. Hipsters need a bullet.

alright, a new high score!

>>10848683
Hipsters are why you'll find a grilled cheese sandwich on your restaurant menu for 12.99

>>10848919

I don't understand how you people can hold so much cognitive dissonance. You hate society at large but at the same you desperately need to be perceived as smarter and more authentic than them

>>10848933
Are you fucking new here?

I don't want to willingly eat what some liberal faggot enjoys. Fuck them.

>>10848933
Where's the dissonance there?

Woudn't you hate people who fail to recognize your superiority (assuming it exists, of course)?

>>10848933
There is nothing mutually exclusive about the statements you painted your strawman with. 1/10.

>>10848938

no, i'm sick of this extreme polarisation and i'm trying to bring people together one post at a time

>>10848911
You think the right is against globalism?

lol, this is where you are deluded sir.
most americans buy into globalism despite what they say and corporate greed knows no bounds.

>>10848919
Sounds like you make shitty friends

I blame you
not your hipster 'friends' that you hate
you

fuck you

>>10848955
Well good luck reconciling an irrevocably broken-ass culture, brudda.

>>10848958
RINOs are globalists. Why do you think everyone is throwing shitfits over Trump's tariffs, including retarded white boomers suckling Medicaid?

>>10848957

how can you hate people but also care so much about what they think?

>>10848955
many americans live here
the land of extremism


good luck

>>10848933
I know what GOOD Korean food tastes like is why I'm mostly angry, but the icing on this shitcake is that these nasty places are endorsed by "inclusive" , "progressive" types. This only further cements in my mind that these people have no clue what they're doing and will follow any trend, no matter how retarded.
Fuck California. Me and the wife are moving to Texas at the end of the year anyways

>>10848966
Which part of 1/10 don't you understand, cock magnet?

>>10848965
You literally can't NOT think in memes, and have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to politics. And this coming from a Trump-voting, actual reasoning faggot. You and /pol/ are just retarded and make my eyes glaze over, but thank you for the votes anyways.

>>10848961
I at least tried to tolerate them, you reddit-spacing faggot.
Have your (You)

>>10848975

so basically you're complaining about cultural appropriation

>>10848965


ahhh the illusion of choice

you know that after trump causes a global recession with his crazy bullshit, the next US government after him is going to go hard globalism as a response. That'll be a bad thing and your boy trump won't care because he'll be the only winner as per usual.


To be clear I'm not saying that America had or has any good choices.

>>10848975
Tell Lisa 'hi' for me. And don't forget to send back some Whataburger spicy ketchup cuz I sure as sugar ain't payin' the Amazon mark up for it.

The recession was already supposed to happen. Soros lost 1bn USD shorting the dollar expecting a Hillary win.
Yet the market is bullish as fuck even after a harsh correction.

>>10848415
Actually, you know how conservatives now love to eat shit? Like how they delight in slurping down fresh runny diarrhea or how they chomp down onto a hot juicy turd? They love that shit -- literally, they love shit. I dunno why exactly, maybe it's because they are degenerate amoral ghouls and a diet of faeces seems more amenable to them than maybe a sensible diet rich in fruits and vegetables, but here we are.

It's not like I ever wanted to eat shit, but I for sure don't want to know just because of the association to the most disgusting trash to ever exist on the planet, ie, conservatives.

>>10849013
Yeah, if theres anything I could bitch about as far as Trump, it's that there massive construction occurring constantly on the thoroughfare of my rural county.
The rapid fire gun shots might trigger the libs that vote with their feet and not their minds.

I hate to point out where it unravels to these idiots, but this is just sad. Did you make like 20c with that post?

>The recession was already supposed to happen.
According to who? May experts predict ~5 years from now.

it hasn't been long enough since the election to see the impact. If you think it has, you're just as fucking stupid as the alarmists who said we'd all be dead in 6 months if trump was elected.

fuck this
this is /ck/
i'm not discussing politics here and especially with a retard who thanks that legislation, economic turnover, and the impacts of these happen immediately.

The wife LOVES Whataburger! I am not a fan of their fries, but I have tried the patty melt and found it to be top quality when dunked in that spicy ketchup :)

>>10848996
This is the last (You) you're getting.
Friends are people you share something in common with. Just because you're a human bean does not mean I'm going to follow your advice and less so if you're wearing your identity on your sleeve you fucking hipster cuck.
Go share an IPA with your polyamorous androgyne gf and think about it.

I was with you on the hipster part but the rest is pure drivel. What do you expect everyone to have experienced fucking authentic KBBQ? Fuck these people for inviting you out and attempting to share a meal with you? Assuming any of your story is true the reason you don't have any friend is because you have a rubbish personality. "Oh I went to Italy once so this attempt at Italian is fucking pathetic mum!". Jesus get the fuck over yourselves people.

>>10848415
If hipsters are creating trends when it comes to a certain food then it's not just about association. Like beer for example, instead of pumping out all kinds of great stouts, brown ales, etc, all you get are 1000s of shitty IPAs.

>>10849080
>all you get are 1000s of shitty IPAs.
This makes me so mad. Hipster little lib soibois unironically ruined the microbrew beer uprising in america. "If it doesn't taste like a pinecone, it isn't good" FUCK YOU.

Buddy it's 2018. Nazis are the problem, liberals were only just a slight annoyance, Nazis have become insufferable.

If you think this is bait you're a fucking retard and should kill yourself.

>>10848415
To be fair hipsters did raise the price of avocados thus ruining it for us impoverished minorities

>>10849071
I'm only upset with them because they complain my wife's mom made too many vegetables and the kimchi was too spicy for them, then they try and drag us to these fusion joints.
You're right about the pretentious part, I should tone it down a bit. But I'm furious at hipsters. See >>10849080 for what they've done to the beer industry.
The only reason I hung out with these 'friends' was because they went to my wife's church and over the years have become less inclined to be around them as they drift into becoming memes. Not trying to put politics in food here, but there seems to be a correlation between people's interests and their diet. Trendy things that are poor imitations of the original touted by mobs are the death of culture and I fucking love cultural variety. Korean, Mexican, Turkish... All these cuisines are being rekt in the USA because of hipsters, anon. I thought avocado peanut butter pizza was funny at first, but some things should be cherished and maybe even pizza should stay in the Mediterranean.

It's a trap. I'm not saying don't do it, I'm just warning you beforehand.

>>10849161
>I'm only upset with them because they complain my wife's mom made too many vegetables
Ok well that completely changes it, instead of being a whiny elitist you're now just ditching people who, not only rudely complain about someone's cooking but B. complain about someone cooking authentic food properly. I probably came on a bit strong with my post i apologise.
>Trendy things that are poor imitations of the original touted by mobs are the death of culture
I entirely agree with that, which my main issue with "hipster" and shitty fusion cooking. It isn't just USA my dude the same thing happens here in Kangaroo land though i suspect to a lesser extent.

>>10848683
bread

Easy way to avoid prices - work in the kitchen. I'm working in one and yeah, fried bread, or pig ear pricea are ridiculous, but i abuse them for free. #ain'tmad

>>10848415
They don't really ruin things. They just love shitty food like Sriracha and avocado.
