/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Maybe stop fighting a proxy war with Russia over some corrupt shithole.

why do leftists always have to pretend people in west europe or america are living in poverty, when by every single metric their life quality is amazing, when in countries like india or any african shithole kids literally die from lack of nutrition?

No way that buying several candles that last for one meal twice a day is cheaper than using a stove for 10 minutes

The nation of Ukraine was founded in 2014 by Barack Obama

Indeed.

lol
My dog's food is more expensive than what I eat. $70+ for a 6lb bag of kibble.

>>18685908
People give their pets the fucking liver and eat the beta cuts themselves

>>18685895
Indians and Africans deserve it. The people who founded civilization as it is understood today deserve better.

>>18685908
I'm growing to hate pet owners more and more lately. At least the animal keeps the mail man off your lawn right?

>>18685895
Because leftists aren't retards who settle for "not as terrible as India" when it's obvious that things could be even better

>>18685867
It's a quotation. Source needed on quote, and source needed on whether people are *actually* doing that (or if some idiot politico is just saying that).

Are there any reasons for me to be?

>>18686020
There shouldn't be, but here we are

Weird. I just got an Amazon order and these were the things they recommended. I don't have a dog, but it sure doesn't seem very cheap.

Pro tip: they aren't. This is fake.

>pet food
sausages, steak, bacon etc can literally be described as pet food
>hearing meals with candles
for a tiktok video no doubt or someone on twitter lied and said they did it for likes

i despise journalists

>>18685867
Weren't people from /fit/ doing that unironically not too long ago? One guy was eating sticks of fuckin whatever that are meant to feed captive gorillas

>>18686038
So what are they then?

>journalists protecting pedophile elites
This is fine
>journalists exaggerating real struggles of the lower class
I despise journalists.

>>18686339
Ok but where do the struggling lower class pedophiles fit into this narrative and how are the free masons involved?

>>18686339
both the elite and lower class are scum

>>18686289
Yes. Notice the use of the same quotes across all headlines. This means they are citing from the same source which, without even looking, i know will come from a "report" published by some charity or lobby group. Said group can manufacture the circumstance for the report and the headline is still technically accurate.

>>18687613
I was wrong. There wasn't even the pretence of research. The source is this "man".

>>18685867
This "cost of living crisis" seems like complete bullshit to me. I earn next to nothing because I don't even work full time yet still manage to pay for rent bills and groceries. I think these people just can't imagine living without their luxuries.

Yeah, the gorilla guy because its cheap and works for bulking, but thats just /fit/ being /fit/ and returning to monke.

>>18686099
Fucking checked and red-pilled

>>18687633
But you posted an Asian boy?

>>18687641
Even I fell for it. For anyone wondering, it tastes like any other pet food, but it's shaped like circus peanuts. Also, it's not "hard to chew" like the og gorilla chow poster claimed, but that may vary lot to lot.

>>18686445
>waah the elite are scum waah
Scum rises to the top. I certainly hope you enjoy eating our detritus. That's all there will ever be for you.

>>18686339
Fuck jounalists. They are nothing but scum sucking garbage human beings.

>>18685867
That's UK. Not Europe.

Lol @ the lying kike owned media.

According to them, I would be freezing in my house right now but I have 21.5 comfy degrees all day long (in the evening 22.4), I have food and I have everything I had before this (((war))). Everything costs a bit more, however people are dying in the streets like they write.

I’m Italian btw.

>pic related life is good

>>18685867
What the fuck? Pet food is more expensive than human food, and heating with candles is more expensive than normal heating, even now. I call bullshit

>>18687883
same i literally live in Russia and sanctions didn't obliterate prices into Venezuela its whatever

Compared to wood you'd be paying like 14x if you used paraffin for heating

>journalistsg exaggerating
>I despise journalists.
There are three people at fault here: the person who didn't see that there was a quotation in OP's headline, the person who doesn't know that journalists don't write headlines, and the person who didn't bother to look up the article in the first place.

All of which are you. You seem to blame the media for the fact that you are an ignorant moronic fucking faggot.

And fuck OP and fuck everyone else in this thread for not demanding and posting the source immediately. It's the internet -- you all should know better, you fucking monkeys.

>>18687641
just made a purchase...

>>18685867
Pet food isn't exactly cheap

>>18685867
Wasn’t there once unproven stories about decrepit yank boomers having to eat cat food during the last financial crash in ‘08.
This reminds me of the same thing

>>18688810
Correct. That too has shot up in price. It’s not like that student staple of ramen noodles hasn’t itself gone up either

Man I'm a poorfag and yet I can afford food just fine including regular, cheeky take-outs and my heating's been on nonstop. Are people just bad with their finances, or is being a single male with no dependents and no real financial obligations other than rent+food just easy mode?

>>18685867
>new
>European
It's also common in the US for poors to eat pet food when shit gets bad and has been for quite some time. That said, using candles to heat food seems a bit odd.

Let's see who has less outages this winter, shartboy . I'm pretty sure we usually win.

>>18685944
>things could be even better

I agree with that sentiment, but that's not the narrative you're defending. The image being passed is that people are eating animal food like it's WW2 levels of poverty and thats not true.

>>18685867
these people would still have food to eat if so many resources werent wasted on producing dog food

>>18685944
You lost me at the first sentence

I have to up the quality on my cat's food to higher than mine too, since she's on a prescription diet and has recently had bouts of refusing to eat anything except wet food treats that's basically junk food (I want to destroy Purina as a company so much -- they must put cocaine in their food or something, but basically pets don't want to eat anything else, so it takes weeks to get them to switch to decent food). Also as an effort to get her to eat, the vet had me order freeze-dried raw meat to crumble into her food, which is also a pretty nuts unit price.

She's earned her keep over the years though as she's killed a bunch of rats in various apartments for me. She even lets me get first choice whether I want to eat them for myself -- it's breakfast in bed.

>>18690111
euthanize your 10 dollar cat and get a new one that isnt retarded

>>18685867
Is pet food actually cheaper than human food in Western Europe?
