/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I... what?
How long do you think it takes to buy a baguette, anon?

>>17904131
like 18 minutes to drive to the grocery store and back and maybe 10 - 15 minutes to wait in line

>>17904135
Yuros don't have to go on road trips to buy food they just go to local stores and bakeries

>>17904111
I take baget with every meal and you americans do not have time because you are so busy!

>>17904111
treaty of Versailles

>>17904111
You fat fuck have never been outside of the US.

>>17904111
reminded me to buy fresh bread, ty op

aside from that, euros live in cities where bakeries are around the corner, not pike in america where there are densely populated areas with 0 food related stores

>>17904141
So, what, 10 minutes each way and maybe 20 minutes in line since small stores can't afford much staff.

>>17904135
Why do Americans not have bakeries? Grocery store bread is shit.

>>17904135
Sometimes I feel really sorry for americans

>>17904111
French have baguette stores on every street corner like Starbucks only more. Its actually a law that every block must have one

>>17904258
There are bakeries. I think you underestimate how fucking massive the US is

>>17904257
How many more fictional numbers are you gonna come up with

>>17904261
Then live in a smaller country you fucking retard yank.

>>17904257
this is work typically done by the woman of the house, so her time is not valuable. for single men, if you live in france you likely pass a bakery on the way to work, so picking up bread along the way is no great task. even if it did take 30 minutes (it doesnt), it would be time well spent, better than wasting it posting on 4chan.

>>17904258
Bread is like 5 bucks at the grocery, so what like $15 at the meme US bakery. Oh this is before the upcoming wheat shortage.

>>17904111
If you live in a city, there are bakeries literally everywhere so it's really not a problem.

If you live in the countryside, there are still a lot of bakeries and most people stop by a bakery that's between their work and their home.

Bakeries are immensely popular, at every hour of the day, particularly for lunch.

I used to live across the road from a bakery and there was never a line

>>17904257
More stores means less customers per store, bakeries are in and out type stores. There's so waiting for your food to cook so a 20 minute line in basically impossible

I got a perforated "italian bread" pan - I guess it's bigger than the french bread pan maybe - but you can make normal baguettes in it - just only demi-sized (less long)

If you add glycerol monostearate + sodium stearoyl lactylate to your bread it will stay moist for a week or more

If you also add a pinch of calcium propionate powder - it will keep without staling. Just wrap it tightly in plastic and it will be fine.

>>17904262

>>17904293
>glycerol monostearate + sodium stearoyl lactylate
stop telling people to make mustard gas

>>17904419
they are humectants that add moisture

u ever use a cake mix? that's what is in those to make the cake moist

you can buy from modernist pantry direct or on amazon there might be other sellers

>>17904254
>densely populated areas with 0 food related stores
christ it really is the land of the orcs

>>17904257
don't know if bait but bakeries in europe are everywhere so you jost stop by one, go in, ask for bread, pay and get out with your bread. take less than one minute, if there is a line it means it's a populare place that deserves the wait. also there's a lot of regional differences in bread and bakeries at least in Italy

>>17904257
I can get one in 5 minutes in Paris even, 2 people before me at most and their not buying much cause there's just breads and pastries.

>>17904111
they're not an industrious people anon. they do fuckall every day.

>>17904111
op are you that retarded? fucking retarded american

>>17904111
They don't work 10+ hours of unpaid overtime every week.

>>17904257
>maybe 20 minutes in line since small stores can't afford much staff.
Do americans really? The only time I spend more than 10 minutes in a line is in big supermarkets. Usually there's no line at all if I go to the corner store.

>>17904111
baguette are delicious
fuck, all france backery products are

>AUS shitposter makes a bait thread at almost 3:30 AM US time
>"Fucking Americans I swear to God Americans Americans Americans"
Meds.

>>17904675
You can't into timezones can't you

I think a lot of them make their own bread OP, in fact french bread is pretty intuitive to make, you probably have the 8 ingredients required to make some right now

>>17904699
bread flour

salt

msg

active dry yeast

honey

sodium stearoyl lactylate (humectant)

glycerol monostearate (ditto)

calcium propionate (prevents spoilage)

I guess water is 9 - close enough.

>>17904707
water, sugar, salt, flour, yeast, vegetable-oil, egg white, cornmeal

>>17904111
Europoors don't spend all day being wagecucks

>>17904731
>sneed oil in french bread

I buy packs of 6 baguettes at Costco that I can bake at home for 12mins and have fresh bread.

>>17904111
they need their baguette or they can't make jambone burray

>>17904866
yes.. we do..........

>>17904111
>>17904135
Frenchfag here, I have over 7 bakeries within a 10 mn walking distance but I have 2 within a single minute. Baguettes are serious business.

>>17904111
>walks to bakery (five minutes away at most)
>buys bread
>walks home

We Europeans have a more relaxed pace of life, so taking a little time out of you day to visit the local bakery before, during or after work is no big deal.

>>17904872
10 mn means metric minutes for amerikwans, you will have to convert it yourselves to imperial minutes

>>17904892
10 european minutes = 16.678 american minutes

>>17904111
You just walk to the bakery lol
Dumb question

>>17904866
Implying it's not a top tier sandwich.

>>17904801

>>17904978
faggot you can replace sneed oil with every animal fat or healthy oil of your choosing, even yougurt if you really want to

>>17904111
you freeze them and buy for 3 days.

there is not loss in quality for the first freeze

Breadlets ITT

>>17904436
>breads and pastries.
>breads... AND pastries
That just always seems so odd to me anywhere outside off my country. We have bread bakeries and pastry shops as two separate things. While it does happen, it's extremely rare to have the two in one store and I strongly prefer the separation, likely because it's the system I grew up with.

>>17904111
>>17904135
>>17904257
As I said last thread, I just nab a loaf omw home. There's a bakery right at the top of the stairs from the underground/the metro and it's under two minutes to walk in, get a loaf, pay and walk out. Also as said last thread, if I stop in during that unlucky period between the baker selling off the last loaf of a batch but before the next batch come out of the oven, it's only a ten minute wait, which isn't a problem since I'll just use the time to walk one street over to the deli/cheese shop and get some other things then back to the bakery from my fresh loaf.
Easy af.

Now then, if it's a weekend, that's different. Growing up, my parents bought three loaves on Friday rather than head over there both Saturday and Sunday and we'd eat them over the weekend. I hate day-old bakery bread so after much complaining to that end, my mother started buying the Friday loaf and some fresh dough to take home and bake herself. Not as good as the bakery, but better than day-old bread.
As for me, I either just don't eat bakery bread on weekends, opting instead for sliced supermarket bread, homemade flatbread or eating some other carb like rice or bulgur, or make the oh-so-pain-staking 3-minute walk to a different, closer-to-my-house bakery (there's one at my corner, too, but that one's not very good for bread; decent pizza, though).

So yeah. It's literally 2 minutes out of your day to buy fresh bread daily.

>>17904111
The french are all welfare queens and dont actually do any work of any kind which is why they have imported so many africans to do their work for them. They have a lot of free time so making a trip to the baguette shop once a day is not a big time sink for them.

>>17904257
Do Americans really wait 20 minutes in line? Do they really tip the person in line infront of them?

>>17904866
>>17904870
lol
I dated a Nigress during while I was at college. She worked at a cafe. Someone came in one day and ordered a ham sandwich. She started buttering the baguette. The guy starting speaking French at her, which she does not speak. He apologised, saying he thought she was French because she was buttering the baguette and she said, in her very black American accent, "nah, the bread is just dry as hell."
I still laugh about that to this day.
I guess any good-looking black person with unblemished skin and non-urban fashion sense is thought of as being "other" because she often gets mistaken for African, as well. She resembles the daughter from that Wonder Years reboot (who actually is African), but with a very different hair style.

It takes them five minutes to walk to a store (and about twenty minutes to walk to the next city over)
You have to keep in mind that European provinces are basically the size of American cities, like the entire country of France is smaller than Texas. You can legit bike from one side of the country to the other and back in a day, you don't even need a car.
So they walk maybe 1 mile from their house to the bakery, grab their bread and walk home. I think the furthest a European would ever travel in a single day is 5 miles, anything more than that and they consider it an ordeal. They have to rent a car for it and it's considered a road trip.

>>17905499
God you're dumb.

I lived in the french countryside and basically it’s on your way home. The village I was in didn’t have a bakery but there were many of these elsewhere. They even have these vending machinese here and there and they are a life saver.

In cities it’s basically absolutely everywhere so it’s impossible to miss one on the way home.

>>17904258
why do you guys constantly make up all this retarded shit about the US and say it as if it's fact?
every single grocery store in the US has a bakery inside it

>>17905508
how am I wrong
the average europoor shits and pisses himself at the idea of a 30 minute drive, meanwhile for an American that's a daily commute

>>17905517
>grocery bakeries
>real bakeries
ameribro.... i've got bad news..

>>17905499
>They have to rent a car
Jesus what a hellhole, even the poorest of the poor own a car in USA.

>>17905522
my daily commute is 45 min and i'm french

>>17904886
having a bakery greengrocers butcher and fishmonger within 5 mins walking is pretty comfy and usually takes less time than driving to a supermarket
i dont think pace of life comes into it unless you just wanted to bring up working more hours for some reason

>>17905534
you could literally drive the entire length of France in 45 minutes do you work in a different country or something?

>>17905499
>I think the furthest a European would ever travel in a single day is 5 miles

Have murritards ever tasted real bread?

>>17905608
>literally

>>17905608
not even remotely close to 45 min, imperial or metric, ya fucking dingus. I'm even surprised you figured out how your keyboard works

>>17905608
>you can drive 1000km in 45 minutes
bro..

>>17905612
pic unrelated i guess? the crust is flakey and therefore shit

>>17905636
This is what actual fresh bread looks like without all the shit additives you nigger.

>>17905639
i don't doubt it's fresh, it's just poorly cooked

>>17905499
>You have to keep in mind that European provinces are basically the size of American cities, like the entire country of France is smaller than Texas. You can legit bike from one side of the country to the other and back in a day, you don't even need a car.
at it's narrowest point France is around 650KM across, so you can bike 1300km (about 800 miles) in a day? Are you Lance Armstrong? Or just full of fucking shit?

>>17905645
retard

>>17904135
>like 18 minutes to drive to the grocery store and back and maybe 10 - 15 minutes to wait in line
that's why Americans don't do it. French don't have this problem, bakeries are everywhere and towns are dense enough that things are in easy walking distance

french going out to get a baguette is more comparable to walking to the corner store to get a Monster

>>17905650
Bro. The crust is flakey, that means the bread is poorly baked, that's all. If you made it, you oven just wasn't hot enough.

>>17905656
double retard

>>17905669
At least make an actual answer, a flaky crust is a flaw.

>>17904135
it takes less than 8 minutes to bike to an bakery for me kek and im not even in a city

>>17905608
i cant even drive a third of my country in 2 hours and im not from france retard

>>17904257

>>17905645

I really want a tv show where they just go around and ask my countrymen on the street what life is like in X country, just one picked at random. Maybe have them try to point to it on an unlabeled map.

>>17905762
Americans are so dysfunctional as human beings its really amazing.

>>17905728
Ok retard, enjoy your shit bread. Fucking faggot coward.

France has about 35 000 bakeries and an area of 544 000 km^2, so one bakery per ~16 km^2, or a square 4km wide. If they were distributed in a grid, you'd never be able to get more than 2km away from a bakery, which is mad. Obviously they're clustered around residential areas so for most people it's probably even more dense than that.

>>17905803
>coward

>>17905925

>>17905842
Would have though France has way more bakeries desu. Germany has 45000 bakeries/stores on a much smaller area (358000km^2) which is twice as much as France.

>>17905930
>Hah, see! My country is so shitty I CAN'T walk anywhere, so there!
I don't think you're making the point you want to make.

The reply was to the one seething about those living in the "suburbs".

it ain't me that's coping, enjoy your 20 minute drive outside of your unwalkable maze housing estate to get something that isn't sliced wonderwhite

>>17905762
tbf, in American suburbia there are no sidewalks

>more cope

and lol I guarantee I own more land than you

>>17906127
67 mio vs 80 mio isn't that much of a difference.

>>17906128
say I'm coping all you want, not going to change you coping by dumping copeimages from your copefolder as a cope for you having to drive ten minutes to the main road out of your cookie cutter housing estate that you have no destinations you can walk to, that your children can walk to, not school, not a park, not their friends house two streets over because there's no lanes no paths no bike tracks

your block might well be bigger than mine but how do you cope with your council/hoa regulating what shade of pantone your gardenless front lawn is?

suburbia is a shithole and in all this time you'd have come up with a reason why it's not instead of compiling a copefolder as a way of staving off murder-suicide over your massive cuck mortgage if that wasn't the case

>>17905651
>french going out to get a baguette is more comparable to walking to the corner store to get a Monster
fuck

>>17904135
in a dense, walkable city there are many smaller bakeries and groceries instead of one giant central supermarket, you simply grab your baguette at one of the bakeries on your way home.
it takes no additional time since it's already on the way.

>>17905733
modern 4chan is retarded and always jumps on obvious bait
its a circlejerk of people feeding each other easy (You)s for dopamine hits
best thing you can do is reply without quoting, drives these zoomer retards up the fucking wall

>>17904111
there's a bakery at just 50 meters from my house, I don't even need an alarm clock because at exactly 5:00 am the smell of fresh bread wakes me up.

>>17906194
lol I dont live in suburbia or have a hoa. And my mortgage was paid off two years ago. I bought my property when I was 20. And why the fuck would I want to walk anywhere. I own multiple personal vehicles stored in a three car detached garage. I get it, you cope by taking great pride being cubbyholed with your neighbors living on top and below you in an urban hellscape and having the privilege of having to walk everywhere you go all year long. Some people just take great pride in mediocrity, and you're one of those people.

>>17906091
That’s true, but that story is absolutely retarded. No one in America is that lazy except for the morbidly obese.

>>17906091
>tbf, in American suburbia there are no sidewalks

How to tell someone has never been to American suburbia. You have no clue whatsoever. But do please go on and describe to us more your furtive imagination about what constitutes "american suburbia"

>>17906261
You do sound like a satisfied person. What other stuff do you own. Gonna buy more stuff?

>>17906119
>Man, the Germans must really like bread.
well, they like the ovens at least

>>17906283
We really don’t have sidewalks in the suburbs, at least in some parts. For me to walk to the grocery store I would have to walk on the shoulder of a 45mph road.

>>17906304
>owning your own home and personal vehicles is coomsuming, you must live without any possessions and rent for life
yep that's more cope.

>>17906316
I spent years working for suburbanites, they have bigger wider nicer cleaner sidewalks than any city sidewalks I have seen.

>>17906320
You didn't answer my question. You sound very interesting. I want to learn more about your interesting life.

>>17906283
Suburbia doesn't include towns like Paoli or Media PA. It's made of shit like Levittown and North Jersey Sprawl. Technically there are some sidewalks, but they are not universal or even dominant. There are many intersections that can not be legally much less safely crossed on foot without running ahead of turning cars. I live in Philadelphia. And we're an old established city and even our burbs have a lot of the nonsense you seem to deny exists. In fact, even in the city and thanks to the Highway Commission, there are stroads and pedestrian no-go zones.

>>17906327
Name your location or stfu.

>>17906316
There are commuter rail stations in my Metro that are only accessible by car. Busses controlled by the same transit authority pass by them and have no stops at any of them. Madness.

>>17906327
You've torpedoed the actual argument i.e. ease of navigating US streets on foot, and you don't even see it. Look at this wonderful sidewalk through a I-76 interchange with US route one. This is just inside Philadelphia. The other side is Montgomery county and technically the burbs. Have fun!

let's put aside the room temp iq npc shit of you continuing to pretend I'm an urbanite despite what I've written

If you don't like the urban core, and you don't live in the suburban entertainment, leisure, food desert, you must live out in the country like me — so the big question is why the fuck would you have this faggy cope folder and go on this assmad pro-suburbia shitpost spree, unless you don't like your circumstances and would prefer to live in the autist friendly cookie cutter cuckzone?

>And why the fuck would I want to walk anywhere.
if you actually liked where you live you might like the scenery, the fresh air, the gardens of your neighbours or the pasture and road edge wildflowers depending on how far out of town you live
it's funny, you thinking it's beneath you to walk anywhere instead of thinking of it as leisure is as close as you have got to baiting me emotionally, you genuinely disgust me, what a corpulent sack of shit you must be

I live near a nice cozy bakery that bakes fantastic bread. It takes me literally 120 seconds to go from car door and back with ample suburban downtown parking around the building. but what pisses me off is I'm in flyover country, so the overwhelming majority of the fatties who go to this bakery are buying cakes, pies, cookies and brownies instead of the spectacular breads and baguettes. so much so that the bakery stopped doing twice a day fresh baguette bakes and only bake them once a day now

>>17906261

poor you, someday youll escape that corn syrup hell, ameritard, someday

because of shit convenience culture. it's hard to find a bakery in the usa that doesn't seem pretentious

Europeans don't have the same kind of work ethic as Americans.
They have more free time to actually do shit

Lance Armstrong is American and dominated all of Europe with one testicle. And it was because he was American. And for no other reason whatsoever.

In my home town, it's common that if there's a bakery or green grocer or whathaveyou on the first floor of your apartment building, you just call the store to ask for X, Y and Z then drop a basket or bucket down from the balcony with a clothesline or rope. They'll put the stuff in there for you to pull back up and you pay next time you go downstairs (or they send someone up for the money). Doesn't really get more convenient than that.

In Germany we even have those trucks that drive around the rural areas without a bakery or in parts where mostly pensioners live that can't walk or drive anymore.

French bread rating. The below is not up for debate:

1. Banette
2. Tradition
3. Baguette

>>17906522
I'm calling you a fatass because you said "why would I walk anywhere". Fatass

>>17906512
I can't speak for others, but I moved from a suburb that's not walkable at all to one that is, and I have noticed my quality of life has improved. I spend a bit less on gas each week, I have a few bars within walking distance so I don't have to drive drunk, and it's always good to get some exercise. It also helps that I'm near the beach.

>>17908518
That's neat, I'd definitely buy stuff from one if they were here in the USA

>>17906349
>Busses controlled by the same transit authority pass by them and have no stops at any of them.
What a shitshow. Makes me appreciate the system here even more.

>>17907208

>>17904111
I have 4 bakeries less than 5 minutes of walk around me. There's one in front of my office too. It takes 5 minutes top to buy a baguette and doesn't require me to deviate my way home.

>>17904424
i learned something new thanks

i love french bread

>>17905945
>>17906127
That means France has more bakeries per capita than Germany though.

>>17904135
You think I'm gonna spend 30 minutes every day just to get bread?

>>17909093
France has 5/6 of Germanys population but only 7/9 of the bakeries. Germany has slightly more.

>>17906633
we have townhomes in the US too, anon. In fact we have literally every type of house. Why do people insist of overgeneralizing literally everything?

>>17909295
That's how "discussion" works these days, along with speaking in terms of polar opposites about pretty much everything

>>17904261
Americans will make threads expressing confusion about how French people could "drive to the grocery store" to get bread every day and then get mad when people assume Americans don't have bakeries or walkable living spaces.

>>17905762
I remember I almost lost out on a threesome because one of the American girls didn't want to walk fifteen minutes back to my place and we had to wait for a taxi instead.

>>17906692
This happened to my dad every time he went for walks in San Antonio.

>>17906024
living in the suburbs just means you're too poor to have a place in the city or in the rural areas. you're literally on the same level as homeless people in urban areas lmfao. in fact you're probably worse because you lack self-awareness of being a subhuman who lives in the suburbs. just kys.

>>17905733
no
americans really are that stupid

I miss being a baker it was great. To bad it pays shit

Are there less carbs in bread made in France than in America? It seems like it would since it’s actually baked fresh

>>17909427
if you do not add stuff inside the dough carbs are the same per weight ratio

>>17909339
We do that guy probably lives in bumfuck Arizona where all they have is a walmart and a tacobell. Pretty sad driving through those places and the people are abnormal. You don't need to know about those places eurobro its our private shame

>>17909613
i want to put my fingers inside your private shameful parts

>>17909339
Some people here on 4chan makes looks like americans stupider because people are more inclined to not argue about cooking so they make hate each other

there's even bakery shows on tv, it cannot be so uncommon to not have local bakeries even in suburban areas

>>17909628
You're more than welcome to come to Yuma, Arizona and finger fuck the first homeless person you see. The cops just shoot 'em out here anyway.

>>17909613
Well yeah, I accept that, but you've got to understand that when people say "America doesn't have bakeries" they don't mean every square inch of it. The fact is that we don't know what Arizona is like. We don't know the names of the places which have food deserts or are unwalkable. We just know that it's a significant part of the US.
Like you could say "parts of the US don't have local bakeries you walk to" but people are lazy

>>17905762
>it was hot, 25 Celsius
77 degrees is hot? Is this dude from fuckin greenland

>>17909774
>The cops just shoot 'em out here anyway.
Based homeless policies are based.

>>17904111
>How do the french have the time to buy a baguette every day?
I'm sure most don't make special trips if it's not on their block, but rather commute to and from work, since they're walkingdriving past anyway. Live in a major city, there's bound to be a dog walk or some reason to walk a couple of blocks away.
Do you eat bread daily? I don't

>>17909983
>Do you eat bread daily? I don't
In France we do. In many countries people do as a matter of fact.

>>17905762
Hi bernd!

>>17906327
Can confirm, Seattle has a bizarre mix of awesome greenways in center of two lanes for walking/biking to literally sidewalk ends in a 6 inch drop off into a grate fuck you, fuck you, fuck you. Seattle is a bit of a special case though due to zoning. Also our pavement SUCKS

>>17908404
That sounds kino, but why not just put the money in the basket?

>>17906231

Wow.

>>17910343
We also have countrysides you know. They're just full of villages which are compact enough to let you walk to the bakery and other shops.

>>17904111
They go on pension at 57 or something, then they start buying them.

>>17905517
If they bake anything at all, it pre-made frozen dough.

>>17904258
>Why do Americans not have bakeries? G
We have them, but they only sell doughnuts and bagels.

>>17906316
That doesn't sound like a suburb to me.

Even if pinned or weighed down, there's no guarantee a stiff wind wouldn't send the cash flying. It's just better for all involved to pay for it after.

Australian here, takes me 10 minutes to walk the dog down to the bakery in the morning.
Nothing like fresh bread and Vegemite for breakfast

>>17906225
in a dense, walkable city you get accosted by puerto ricans and shot by blacks and pay a jew $3000 a month for 600 sq ft

>>17911697
Vegemite is disgusting

>>17911858
agreed. also, australian "bread"? I don't think aussies are capable of baking bread

>>17911866
You can buy proper bread here but most people chose not to, similar to the US.

>>17911866
What's wrong? We cook bread just like everyone else, picrel

>>17904261
You'd think in ALLLLLLLL that space you'd have been able to figure out how to plan a fucking township better. But you just fucked it up every time. A goddamn retard rerun.
They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result, but in your case it wasn't insanity. After all, expecting something requires thinking about it, and thinking doesn't come naturally to the suburbanite.

Rednecks and cityslickers can agree on one thing, suburbanites are the worst thing to happen to the world. All the failure of city life and rural life, and none of the benefits. You're in a wilderness of ugly houses, shit children, beta fathers and smug mothers.

Baguettes are as available as fast food is in America. Being within 5 miles of a McDonald's at all times is no different than the French and bakeries.

>>17911993
Lol

>>17904135
That is the shitty thing about the US, everything is at least 15 min by car. In other countries grocery stores are integrated with neighborhoods, so one is always a 15 min walk away from where you live.

>>17905517
>every single grocery store in the US has a bakery inside it
and they're all shit, what is your point?

>>17905988
never seen anything like that in all my time in cities

I'm so happy seeing all my fellow frogmen and euros defending our walkable bakeries. I've never lived somewhere that didn't have a bakery within ~2 minutes of walking, and there only ever a queue on sundays morning before and after mass, and at 12pm during the week if it's a chain store which serves sandwhiches and whatnot for people on their lunch break. Otherwise, it's generally faster than taking money from an ATM.

>>17904111
You realize Europeans have livable cities right? They don't need to go out of their way and slog through car traffic to get to the nearest hypermarket 15 km away to get their hands on stale plastic bread. They just grab one at innumerable bakeries on their way to/from work as they're walking, cycling, or doing the last few hundred meters walk from the nearest metro station.

>>17905645
>>17905636

why are you so fucking retarded you thick crust nigger
the flakey crust means that the crust is THIN and CRISP with impossibly fluffy and airy crumb, something that YOU and your ignorance will NEVER experience

Bro what bumfuck part of the US do you live in where you aren't less then 10 minutes from the grocery store? There are literally 15 grocery stores within a 5 mile radius of my house.

American cities should be walkable
It’s bullshit I have to drive 15 minutes to a fucking Walmart, 21 minutes if I want to go to a proper grocer, and almost half an hour to go to a bakery

>>17919562
Be glad you actually have a bakery, I have to go two towns over to find an actual bakery, and even then they don't make bread. They only make pastry.

>>17917090
>cities
Who the fuck would want to live in a city? I want the nearest neighbor to be a minimum of 1 mile away. Fuck humans

>>17919540
the vast majority of this country is bumfuck

>>17904257
Stores in Europe are not like America. They're much smaller and less crowded because there's one on every other corner. And the cashiers must be on fuckin speed because they go way faster than the wagies here in America.

>>17919861
Bumfuck is almost completely unpopulated. Over 80% of Americans live in Urban settings, and the majority of rural people live in rural towns (at most 15 minutes from the main-town grocer), or suburbs pretending not to be urban. And you’re almost certainly driving into an urban setting to work, even if it means you chose a two hour commute each way.

>>17904866
>that
>baguette
Any long bread isn't a baguette. I can smell the sugar from the brioche bread in that picture for miles.

>>17919562
Of the cities I've lived, Chicago and Minneapolis have had a bunch of stuff within walking distance. Atlanta did not. Boston I was broke as shit so don't even know

>>17919831
You are literally not human

>>17920790
>atlanta did not
Fuckin' tell me about it. I backpacked the American south one summer (if you guys can backpack my country, I'll do the same to yours) and the whole city just seemed devoid of anything worthwhile AND it wasn't remotely walkable. They still had signs up directing people to the '92 Olympics, ffs!
I was going to spend a few days there, but it felt so... off... that I got on the first bus out of there after only five hours in town proper (and one hour in Doraville, just outside).
Wound up in Nashville. Much preferred it, even though it was also not walkable. Met some people when I got there, wound up going to a party then clubbing then staying the night at this one dude's place. Good times.
And about walkability, of all the southern cities I visited, only two were remotely walkable, New Orleans and Savannah. Atlanta would be if you only count the very centre of town as the city proper, but due to the huge amount of sprawl and inexplicable lack of trees (and therefore no shade in the summer), it made walking anywhere a truly herculean task.

ha you get to not have a car AND you get BREAD?! shit

Do the French always have someone else do something for them? Can't bake their own bread guess we need five bakers for every 7 citizens guess we'll make fun of Americans because they have enough food to get obese AND help other countries. But France never needed Americans help not one time once ever. In fact it could be said that the French have done more for America by giving her the statue of liberty, and than losing all of their own.

>>17904135
>10 - 15 minutes to wait in line
Not in most bakeries/grocery stores.

>>17911916
based as fuck tho, this shit with a nice drizzle of honey over it is good eatingo

>>17904135
Bakeries are on every corner you dumb American piece of shit. Our European stores for food are IN the city, not outside in a supermarket. I'm not from France, but my bakery is like 4 minutes to walk. "drive to the outline of city to buy fresh things" (awww... No... In the us: industrial made, just in supermarkets, no normal stores). I'm sorry for you guys, you all had that too.

both times I went to France for work there were barely any shops within walking distance. In Romania it's common to have as many as 10 mixed shops in a single appartment building.

>>17924522
Europe is overwhelmingly white no matter what people might say. Most media has blacks in it for token diversity but that's because US ideology on race representation caught on in Europe. But plenty of Europeans have never seen a black person in the flesh
