I love being american

>>20195672
America is a disease

>>20195672
>A BIG INGREDIENTS LIST IS BAD BECAUSE... IT JUST IS OKAY!?!?!?
Europoors seething at everything as usual

>>20195672
we just have more stringent laws on listing every little thing
yurocucks get the same shit they just dont put it on the package

>>20195716
Prove you know what you're talking about and list the ingredients we show that euros don't.

>>20195684
Ok, now read that list amerilard. Defend why “scrambled eggs” is more than just eggs.
>inb4 can’t read because he’s amerifat

>>20195739
dont have time, have to take a shit

>>20195672
Ohmyheavens it even has corn syrup chunks. Wow, coconut oil and canola oil too.

>>20195716
lmao schizo cope
>they won’t tell you but the ingredients are in there!!!
the food in most other countries isn’t 75% filler to shave 1% off of production costs. your freedom food is shit.

>>20195765
kek yeah uh huh

>>20195744
Because eggs have a scientific composition based on the periodic table and they also need to list what they used to get the scrambled eggs scrambled. Olive oil? Butter?

>>20195804
Lmao, enjoy your modified food starch.

>>20195672
>Contains every type of oil in existence
Why

>>20195744
>scrambled eggs
>eggs, milk, oil, starch, salt, emulsifier, flavorings
Eggs and milk are obvious, most people add some dairy to their eggs.
Oil to keep it from sticking to the cooking vessel.
Salt and flavorings for flavor.
The starch is used to keep a tender texture as it is cooked industrially (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXTnq7srJRs).).
The emulsifier (xanthum gum) is used to keep it from weeping liquid into the rest of the burrito.
Citric acid adds both flavor and is a preservative, lowering the pH and keeping bacteria growth down.

>>20195824
That’s a lot of words to defend industrial slop that can be made better and in minute to order or, heaven forbid, in the home.
>salt
There is cheese you don’t need this
>starch, emulsifier, citric acid
l m a o

>>20195861
>salt
>There is cheese you don’t need this
remind me to never eat your cooking

>>20195876
>admitting to eating shit cheese
Do you put salt on your bacon too?

>>20195876
>he demands his food be extra salty
???

>>20195883
>>20195891
youre either putting too much cheese or your breakfast burrito is bland as shit

>>20195861
Why would a convenience store have a fry cook to make burritos?
I explained the reason for the last 3.
>>20195883
Good sharp cheese needs salt the most.
When cheese melts it loses its sharpness and a sprinking of salt brings it back.

>>20195897
Why would you buy prepared food at a convenience store and not some sort of place where they prepare food? Have you ever heard of such a place?

>>20195824
>adding an emulsifier to eggs
>to eggs
>eggs, an emulsifier
Holy hell Americans are retarded.

>>20195910
Because people that have busy mornings want food in a convenient package from a convenient location.
They don't want to go to a restaurant or deli or sit in a fast food drive-thru if they have a choice otherwise.
This burrito is probably better than anything you can get in the frozen aisle of your grocer, at least for the price.

>>20195932
So Americans are also bad at time management and cost/benefit analysis, got it.

>>20195928
It is to keep the water inside them as they sit for some amount of time.
Eggs will leak liquid if left to sit. You can see this at breakfast buffets at hotels sometimes, the scrambled eggs will have a small puddle around them after they sit for too long.
The xanthum gum keeps the water bound inside the egg curd, making it less prone to leakage.

>>20195672
Grim

>>20195939
Yes, Americans are legendarily the only culture on the planet that ever buys premade food.

>>20195949
Only one that buys wraps, especially.

why are yurostanis so fucking stupid

>>20195791
You keep believing that buddy, your government knows what's in your best interest after all!

i just had an egg sandwich. i've had an egg sandwich for brunch every day for the last 3 months at least. today it was delicious.

>>20195672
Prison food

>>20195824
Nice goalpost moving on super bowl sunday!!!

>A lot of ingredients means something is bad
>WHAT? THOSE INGREDIENTS MAKE SENSE? UHHH WELL YOU COULD MAKE IT AT HOME WITH FEWER THINGS!


Keep eating horse meat - sorry, I mean "beef" - and fake honey, you dumb fuck. Tehre are more stories of lying on ingredients and straight up selling rotten roadkill as "fresh pork" at your euro grocery stores in the past 5 years than in the entirety of US history. At least I can buy some meat at the store, know what it is, and not walk down to Shameer's Shawarma Shack and claim it is the best food in the world (while at the same time bitching about pakis taking over) LOL.

>>20196151
Seriously did /pol/ do a purge or something? Why are all you schizo posters on /ck/ lately?

>>20196299
Both /ck/ and /pol/ like ovens

>>20195952
wow, cant believe tesco has its roots in america! cool!

>>20195672
getting upset at this list of ingredients exposes you as a peak midwit in the dunning kruger spectrum

OH NO SCARY CHEMICAL NAMES!

>>20195672
TIME FOR COFFEE!

>>20195672
OP here, this was the interior. I had some Taco Bell hot sauce packets sitting around, fortunately.

>>20196345
>>20196350
True, a natural burrito contains 50 different oils, just like in nature.

>>20195672
I thought the future was supposed to make things better.

>>20196875
B-but line is still going up

>>20196875
We have mexican food and trans sex now. Also amazon delivers things in uh less than a week?

>>20196902
>mfw amazon used to ship in 2 days for free

>>20196378
Looks like it already went through you and you wrapped what came out back up into another tortilla pancake and you're eating it a 2nd time to make sure you get the most out of your money like how people brew the same coffee grounds twice.

>>20195672
How nice of them to help improve the literacy of America by giving them a book with their meal.

>>20195682
yep

>>20195672
the FDA lets manufacturers add whatever they want to food as long as it's not acutely toxic. So if they include ingredients that are toxic over a timeframe of months or years, there's no way for the consumer to protect themselves since it's impossible to isolate any given additive as the single cause of health issues. Everyone who says "hurr durr you're scared of chemicals" is missing the point

I’m guessing this is a gas station burrito, in which case, what the heck did you expect?

>>20196957
Human food

Contains milk, egg, and... is that.....

>>20196966
Then you should’ve gone to the food station.

>>20196299
the solar explosion friday fried their brains even more

>>20195824
>flavorings for flavor.
Egg flavour?

>>20198770
Pepper extract and citric acid.

>>20196345
>>20196350
>no mention of glyphosate
These ingredient lists are lies.

>>20195684
>>20195716
americans will defend anything so long as they at least imagine a european making fun of them for it, it's hilarious. an american would let you beat and whip him so long as you told him that you've beat a european worse beforehand

>>20198875
good point, it's fucking everywhere

>>20195672
This is funny but irl I never see ingredient lists that long. Of the stuff I buy it's only like 3 or 4 but even on the rare occasion I'll look at some heavily processed stuff it's only like 10 max.

>>20196151
>WELL YOU COULD MAKE IT AT HOME WITH FEWER THINGS!
This though. Imagine eating out ever when home cooking is orders of magnitude better

>>20199607
Time is money, and I am a very busy man.

>>20199853
you're too important and valuable to be using your time posting on 4chan you can pay me to post for you like you pay that guy to make you an overpriced burrito?

>>20195672
94 ingredients (if ocr is correct)
lol, lmao even

>>20199853
Pure cope, every single person who says this is actually just a wagie with nothing to do after work or on weekends and just wants to sound important.

>>20200381
I'm salaried.

>>20200432
Then you make the same amount of money regardless of how much you work and the less you work the better things are.

>>20200434
The mindset of an eternal leech.

>>20200434
Unless you work for the government this holds true for exactly one performance review cycle

>>20200437
>>20200443
Work smarter, not harder. Get your work done to a high quality in less time and you win. Efficiency is the name of the game, spending less time is not the same as doing less work. Unlike with hourly work, getting done early doesn't reduce your pay so you have every incentive to find ways to reduce your hours with the same level of productivity/output. Then when you get off work early for the day you can spend an hour making a few burritos to have during lunch.

>>20200459
This is how you get pipped by the guy who got promoted ahead of you because he kept working at the point that you decided to get off work early for the day. (I am that guy)

>>20200443
>doing the same amount of work in a shorter amount of time will get you canned

>>20196345
>>20196350
"trust the science" reddit fag

>>20200468
If you had a limited amount of work to do each day you'd be paid by the hour

>>20200462
based anon providing the shareholders with extra value

>>20195941
cool

>>20195672
I too enjoy a good novel before starting my day.
