/ck/ - Food & Cooking

What a fascinating culinary contribution. White wheat noodles with a tomato sauce topped with what is likely parmesan cheese.

Look at the complexity, quality of ingredients, and creativeness of this dish. It simply had to be shared with us.

Ochazuke.

What a pass aggressive remark. Weak undertones of insecu-

I'm asking why if he feels the need to dump this shit, he needs to include generic pasta and red sauce that is eaten all over the west, that most of us have seen hundreds, if not thousands, of times.

If he wants to dump his Japanese food, that's fine, but opening a thread with spaghetti is just pointlessly asinine.

I agree. It's way too thick to go on even the heartiest salad, and a little bland. It needs to be cut with some more vinegar or citrus juice, and have a little seasoning. But then you end up with something very close to caesar and you gotta wonder why it's not more popular there.

So is /ck/ officially this idiot's Tumblr now? Imagine if it wasn't weeb food, there would be a shitstorm. The bias is adorable, and you have no idea how much it amuses me. This is literally all this weeb shit-hole has now.

Sage because why bother, he'll bump it every day for weeks and post it again when it dies.

There are plenty of mayo based salad dressings, but strait mayo is a bit odd.

Bland rice and fried shit. Should I take pics of gas station hot dogs? I wouldn't eat it, but I guess it's worth my time.

>>4537950
The hot dog is not sold at the gas station in Japan.
Culture is in everyday life.

man japanese people are fucking retarded... why the fuck do they serve their shitty soups and alive squid in 1000 different bowls? why cant they just put everything on ONE plate like normal people. fuck japan

Why is there broth in almost every wet meal?

>>4538052
Well the second image is a soup meal with noodles so of course it has broth.

>>4538053
So every wet Japanese dish is a noodle soup?
wtf

>>4538066
But I just posted one without broth.

pretty sure mayo was created as a salad dressing way back when

sugar and soy sauce

>>4541142

Before baking eggs, after baking or during baking?

I guess its making a soy sauce + sugar mix and then combining that somehow with the egg rolls.

>>4541177
>baking
>somehow combining with eggs
Japan doesn't bake anything. Only rich people and restaurants bake.
Just mix the ingredients with the raw egg, then watch a video on how to fry it. Japan isn't very creative with their flavors, but they get pretty autistic when it comes to how food should look.

>>4543011
thanks for the insight

I just got back from Japan. Had the pleasure of going to some great places in Kyoto.

This was the main course at Muromachi Wakuden in Kyoto. Seabream over vinegar rice. Really good. I don't think I have quite a good enough palette to truly appreciate it, but it was still a great meal. Worth it.

I'd be happy to field any questions, if I can answer them.

>>4537498

The noodles are overcooked and the sauce is watery and separated. Step it up, Japan

>>4543484

how much was that meal? looks pretty good

830JPY

>>4543585
I actually don't know, I was taken as a guest. They did a per person fee, of I think about $110.00? I attached a blurry picture of the entire service.

Most interesting dish was the "refreshment", and probably my least favorite was the Bonito Ball. It was still good, but not as stand-out as the others.

>>4543553
I can say the Italian food I had there was a watered down version. Not nessecarily bad, but not the heavy, carb-intensive take we get in the States. Wine was also always expensive. More than what you'd want to pay.

>>4543648
sorry it's rotated. Here's the "Simmered Dish". The beef was excellent. I wish I had more beef in Japan, but alas it was not meant to be this time.

I will say that they enjoy "pure flavors". What you see is going to be what you get, for the most part. They tend to evoke natural flavors well instead of pairing it off or diluting it with a marinade or something similar.

This can sometimes be frustrating though.

We talking aboit Feudal Japan? Or Rural Japan? If so, then pic related.

>>4541123
Its pickled gourd. You always see it sold along side inari. And inari is not terrible for you, its pretty much the same thing as every other Japanese food. For being a weeaboo you sure know fuck all about the food.

To some extent, this is right. Salad cream is a lot more sour than mayonnaise, though.

Not that I tire of Japanese food from the locals.

Japanese mayonnaise is more sour than your country's mayonnaise.

>>4546703
>has never had Italian nor Catalunyan mayonnaise
They're both pretty tart, you know. I've had Kewpie. I find it cloyingly sweet, not sour in the least. If this is what passes for sour in Japan, the Japanese must have the most ridiculously sensitive set of taste buds on the planet.

I have had enough food from Japan to last me a lifetime.

>>4546971
It's about time the mod wised up. This guy is the most subtle, prolific spammer I've ever seen on /ck/. He consistently necroed his threads and created new "Food pics from Japan" threads as soon as the old one reached bump limit. I'm pretty sure it's mostly just him doing image dumps too. He contributes nothing but textless photos of mediocre food and attracts trolls/genuinely angry people. I have a pretty high tolerance for bullshit on /ck/, I'm probably one of two people who actually like Sceak, but this Japan spam guy really gets my goat.

Well, now that OP has gotten himself banned, I think I will continue his work and make a new thread once this one 404'd.

>>4546989
No. Get over it, move on. You see what isn't welcome now.

>>4547040

You mean posting Italian food in an intentional mockery of the Japan food threads which were appreciated by the majority of /ck/?

The only thing the mod has accomplished here is to sow confusion. Enjoy your simmering rage at all things Japan, maybe you should reexamine what site you're on.

>>4547001
I thought about doing it but go ahead

I don't see what difference it makes

>>4537498

>>4547179

>>4547184

The OP didn't have to make up the prices, and could answer other questions about the food.

what's wrong with posting nice cooked food to the food and cooking board?

>>4547205
That's what we're trying to figure out...

>>4547205
That's what happens when moot sources his mods from /r/atheism/

>>4546978
I don't think they banned him for being off topic or anything. I think they banned him because he's kept this same thread going for what seems like months now by taking advantage of how slow our board is. Its like he took a part of /ck/ and tried to make it his own website. Just let the thread die eventually, enough is enough, time for something new. Its sort of like the guy made a faux sticky since it never went away.

And I like Sceak too, he amuses me. Fun to mess with too. Wonder what he did, he's been gone for awhile.

>>4547222
I don't think the guy who made the last thread is the same person who made this one. This one feels like it was made to piss the people off who can't hide a thread once every two weeks but instead feel compelled to fill them with replies, only making them appear more often. Too many /b/ offboarders on /ck/.

>>4537498
mods = gods

>>4547221
i don't see how that is at all relevant, especially because such a high percentage of japanese are agnostic.

>implying the japanese are good for anything but video games and motorcycles

>>4547222
There's nothing wrong with consistent threads that last for months, see drawfag threads, theme threads in nsfw boards, video game threads, buy/sell/trade threads, etc.

It's not like these threads wouldn't take off with just ten posts. They would have a good amount of images and draw interest, both good and bad.

I wish /ck/ did have more consistent threads like other boards. I'd love a consistent meal thread but I think we get too many new posters who don't search for such threads before posting their meal. We did used to have consistent gardening threads. As for threads that are fairly consistent and clearly are by the same guy, I liked FuckFlour's threads and The Butcher still posts his threads. I personally like a feel of familiarity and 'regular'ness.

I don't mind any suggested necro'ing. I think the amount of content in the thread counters that. I'd hate to see people necro'ing threads with no content.

And I think more people tolerate the threads than those who don't. It's just that those who don't are frustrated enough to take the effort to express how they feel.

Bah. I like the threads and others like them. I don't live in Japan and I have a weird fetish for peering in to the daily lives of other people with vastly different cultures from my own. Looking at pictures of cheap restaurant food or corner store lunches gives me the perspective of what a lower working class Japanese person might eat on a daily basis, and I find that interesting.

And thread hiding is built in to the site now. If you don't like the thread but it's on topic, you can just hide it. If the thread is as prolific as these were, you only need to do it once every few days tops.

>>4547243
I loved the what did you eat today threads made by 100 bowl guy and the other Japanese guy. Much more interesting than most of /ck/'s other content.

>>4547243
The threads you mention though (the butcher, fuckflours stuff, etc.) are different because they are creative, original, and garner learning and discussion. To me these food pics from Japan spamming were the worst kind of shitposting. The guy was just spamming pictures with no real content. Googling "food pics from japan" would be the exact same thing.

I can see how you guys would say its on topic, because it was food. It annoyed the living hell out of me though, I'm so glad the mods gave this guy the axe. The thread isn't original, creative, educational, funny, or amusing. And its gone on far too long.

You don't like it but other people do. Learn to hide things you don't like. You don't need to come in every time and scream how much you hate them. I don't give a shit if OP got banned, they won't stop me or others from making these threads.

>>4547263
>The thread isn't original, creative, educational, funny, or amusing.
Hundreds of thousands of threads, if not millions are not any of those, and their OPs don't get the B&hammer.
>And its gone on far too long.
And always been in one long, self-contained thread. Just ignore it; it's easy to do so.

If you think this is bad, the Generals on /a/ would make you have aneurysms in rage, and they persist.

I don't understand why OP was banned when we have threads upon threads about Vegans vs Meat Eaters. Those threads are mostly trolling from both sides but this is mostly pictures.

that old image?

>>4547340

I came to /ck/ in 2007 and I rarely go to other boards, but that's beside the point. 100Bowl always posts high quality pictures and I found them interesting to look at because they included everything from expensive restaurant meals with fine wines, to convenience store snacks with cheap drinks in a plastic bottle. If we had someone doing that for every country this board would be great.

And while op is obviously not 100Bowl, and there are doubts as to whether 100Bowl is still around, the pictures and discussion in this thread are legit and the mod (presumably moot himself) is just encouraging drama and flaming.

But it's his website so he can do what he wants with it.

>>4547353
>presumably moot himself

I was thinking the same thing myself. He probably just got bored with his cast iron pan thread.

Wait so he got banned for posting pictures of food?

What if moot actually is the food pics from Japan guy, and he banned OP for being an impersonator?

Japanese people eat high-class French cuisine.
However, the appearance of the table French people's every day is not known.

Do Germans eat potato, sausage, and cabbage every day?

Is there any food other than steak, hot dog, and hamburger in the United States or not?

Special culture is reported to the world.
But the culture of everyday life is not so.

I think that the photograph of everyday life has a meaning very much.

>>4548148
By the look of your comment, it seems to me that english is not your native language. Are you from 2ch?

As for the US. We have large populations of immigrants that have assimilated into our society and so have their cuisine. In Los Angeles I can go and get almost any type of food and ingredient as long as I have the patience and money,

>>4548157
He isn't actually asking those questions. He's talking about how Japanese people oftentimes eat cuisine that is not native to Japan. Since this thread is about "food from Japan" and not "Japanese food", he has a point.

I concur.

>>4548157
I am poor at English.
The translation site is used.
Since misunderstanding arises mostly, an argument is difficult.

Much U.S. food is sold even in Japan.
However, the consumption style in Japan does not reflect the American culture.

apart from the first image of (probably poorly imitated) ITALIAN food, I don't see what is wrong with this thread, or threads like it

Just because most of the food is average, doesn't make it a crime. It's like the BBW/amateur of food porn

>>4548148
>high-class French cuisine.
No, Japanese people do not. This is why Japanese people get Paris syndrome. The French cuisine in Japan tastes nothing like what you would find in France. The bread found in Japan is all soft like sandwich bread. They hardly use butter for anything because its so fucking expensive. The Japanese croissant is a soft mushy white bread. It doesn't have a flaky crust nor any hint of the rich butter flavor its suppose to have.

>>4548440

Newsflash, It is like that in every country about any cuisine

You can stop being a samefag now.

Moot already said he didn't know OP was banned but would look into it.

The vast majority of /ck/ either have no problem with these threads, or aren't entirely incompetent and have no problem hiding them.

Also, the /ck/ challenge (i.e. pretty much the best thing /ck/ has going for it) will be over in a couple of days.

>hurr durr, anons cooking food and posting verticals, muh fast foods

>>4548585

I'm pretty sure /ck/ doesn't have a janitor, and aside from OP getting b&, moderation seems almost nonexistent here.

Whatever problems people may have with these food pics from Japan threads, they are at least on topic, and stick to one, easily identifiable thread. I report off topic, spam, troll threads, and obvious raids all the time, and they go entirely ignored.

>>4548581

>>4548613
It's gone on for a quarter year. I much prefer the usual of when anons post threads with recipes guiding through them with ideas being bounced off than having to sift through a competition nobody but the competitors give a shit about.

We all need to stop fighting each other or this place is going to turn into /tv/

the posters who come here is already limited and by banning people for inane reasons it just makes the board more vacant

I'm posting a pic of my American snack plate to keep things on topic kinda

>>4548642
>having to sift through a competition

The competition sticks to a single thread.

If you don't like it, simply hide and ignore.

Personally, I would prefer if we had a general thread for people who want to share what they cook, so everyone interested would know where to look, and multiple threads wouldn't be started about the same thing and possibly ignored due to the constant shitty re-posts.

>I'm a dumbfuck who likes to twist words instead of present an opposing view

Holy shit, thats only slightly more "healthy" than that plate of a half pound of cheese that you posted as a "snack" awhile back. I sort of agree though, our board is limited to a limited number of folk. We need to at least get along with one another.

I've been here since probably 2009, /ck/ has changed. Not sure if for better or worse. As slow as you guys say it is, it used to be a whoooole lot slower. I for one welcome the faster pace, I'd like more people here. As for shitposting and off topic bullshit, its always been here. IMO /ck/ hasn't gotten any better or worse, it just isn't quite as slow. There have always been ramen and fast food threads. There have always been good threads. /ck/ isn't as "nice" as it used to be, because there are alot more people here than there used to be. but at the same time it isn't as boring as it used to be. /ck/ is growing, and experiencing some growing pains. I still think its a great board though. Lets just be cool to each other.

>>4548649

>This is why Japanese people get Paris syndrome.

That's from seeing too many brown people instead of White Price Charmings. Also the city smells like piss.

>>4548716
All sagefags are angry. They want to "downvote" the thread to show they don't care, but still feel compelled to give their opinion on the matter.

So can someone explain something to me?

I'm only a casual visitor to /ck/ so I don't know how this place really operates but why was OP banned? This seemed like a legitimate thread

>>4548561
>the /ck/ challenge

It's funny that HoF is against this thread filled with OC when her thread goes on for months too.

>>4548729
while i'm not a mod, so i can't give the exact answer, i'll guess its because it's just some random useless post of plates of food with zero context except that they're supposedly from japan. this exact same thread has gone on numerous times and its nothing but useless shit. no recipe, no where to eat it at, no what's in it, not even an original pic, just rando shit from the internet half the time... its just a useless form of autistic shitposting

>>4548737
>its just a useless form of autistic shitposting
Yeah, unlike the fast food and vegan threads...

>>4548740
>hurrr defend shitposting with shitposting

Ban them all, I say.


You can't possibly defend this thread, it's just a google image search being spammed.

>>4548728
Do you even have any fucking clue what sage is for? Fuck off newqueer
>>4548729
Because OP posts this thread every single day without fail, bumps it with generic shitty food pictures that weaboos jerk off onto, and never posts recipes or anything actually related to cooking other than prepackaged japanese food or rice and mayonaise

>>4548687

I agree with everything you've said. Been a regular since 07 and I don't think the ratio of "bad" and "good" threads has changed, it's just the "bad" is more noticeable now because well, there's just more of it. Anyone remembering a golden age is kidding himself. As bad as the endless Jiro threads were, it was a lot worse back when Murder Inc. was the movie du jour and we had complaints about repetition as well as vegan trolling. Doesn't anyone remember the /b/ raids? Or the cryfag? Vomit guy? Jewgirl? Cooking with rainwater ad infinitum?

We don't have to be nice to each other. We're still 4chan for fuck's sake. But we're also /ck/ and in the past we've always managed to maintain a balance in our ecosystem. Let's corral ourselves like we did when the home-x-men (homebrewmen, homegrowmen, homebreadmen, homepicklemen) trend grew out of control. Dedicate specific threads that are problems, like ramen or tipping. One master thread at a time, and direct new OPs to that post.

>>4548746
Tipping threads don't have recipes either.

>>4548751
>implying i don't sage both

>>4548754
But that is accepted here, is it not? Has any tipping thread been removed or its OP banned?

Oh, another Saging Internet Enforcer

>>4548756
The tipping threads aren't continued for weeks and months at a time with no context or relevance to this board. I'm not here to argue about tipping threads, I thin those should be banned too but there is no tipping page on the front page. This thread is bumped all day every day by the same japan fetishests

>>4548766

>>4548728

Actually, friend, /ck/ is a civilized board and we do not look upon the sage function, as you put it, as a "downvote". We sage because these threads were pretty much carried by OP posting OC. Also, this thread has devolved into meta-discussion which is off topic and should not, therefore, be bumped.

>>4548729

It is unclear why the OP was banned. Moot said himself that he doesn't know why, but would look into it.

Basically, the OP has been running this thread for weeks on end; bumping it back to the first page and starting a new one when the image limit was reached.

Some people follow these threads and enjoy them, some people complain that he is using /ck/ as his own personal blog.

>>4548730

HoF is most likely against it for the same reason she was against have the /ck/ challenge be a sticky: she doesn't like imposing one thing on the entire board, which the food pics from Japan guy could be seen as doing.

>then again, it could just be because she's korean

>>4548745

>>4548766

The problem with tipping threads and the like is that multiple ones are started everyday, which pushes out other threads. General threads like this are started anew once every few days.

>>4548775
As I recall, it was because a sticky couldn't be deleted by the OP so she couldn't start a new challenge thread; not that she has a problem of spamming her own threads daily.

sigh

>>4548787
So? That's how most OP threads on /ck/ starts. If anything, it's 2/3 OC in the thread itself.

>>4548766
The fucking guy posts a Japanese equivalent of a packaged lunch from Starbucks and people are pissing themselves with joy. I actually like Japanese food and I wouldn't mind seeing an informative or entertaining thread about it but this is like watching a slideshow in silence of McSlanty brand fast food. A never ending slideshow.

>>4548792
Uh no, there not multiple tipping threads every day, there aren't any even up right now on the first few pages and almost every one of those threads is a troll thread where retards like you post and bump them so go fuck yourself faggot

>>4548772
That was me, and I usually sage when my post is not relevant to the thread's topic.

For instance, this post has absolutely nothing to do with pictures of food from Japan. The polite thing to do is sage and avoid bumping the thread, because all I'm doing is expressing dread and disgust at your facile misunderstanding of the nature of sage, no doubt caused by the incurable infection of Reddit's circlejerking culture.

>>4548803
Exactly, if the thread was informative in ANY WAY AT ALL it would be different but it's the same fucking dude posting the same 1000 pictures in a never ending loop of shit

>>4548803
It's because it's unusal to see their conbini foods. Sorry, if that's too low class for you.

>>4548793

That sounds correct, but I do remember her also adding that she didn't want to force the challenge onto the entire board.

>mfw i post about saging a meta-discussion and forget to sage

Why wouldn't you guys just hide the thread if you didn't like it?

Not sure why people insist on saging and telling everyone how much the thread and OP sucks for half an hour when they could just get rid of it and move on.

Because of Aussies.

>>4548824

Nah, it hasn't for awhile.

>>4548816
You're also saging with an attached image you dumb fucking newfag
That bumps the fucking thread

>>4548793
Someone had a screenshot of moot saying he would sticky each week's thread if the link was emailed to him. I'm sure he would have deleted the previous sticky before stickying a second thread. Thread deletion wasn't the issue. It would have been more convenient to have the contest threads stickied because there wouldn't have been bump limits.

>>4548792
Bullshit. This guy creates a new thread immediately after the last one 404s. I've seen it several times.

>>4548833

Fuck off tetra.

>>4548838

Actually he starts a new thread when the image limit is reached, before it goes 404 (how the fuck else would he always post a link to the last thread in the OP?).

That said, its usually a few days before he reaches the image limit, whereas re-posts such as tipping threads are started daily.

So what was your point?

>>4548853
My point is that it's spam. It never goes past the first few pages before being bumped needlessly.

>>4548853
Prove it, where is a tipping thread that was started today?

>>4548866
Prove there wasn't one.

>>4548878

Logic 101 - you cannot prove a negative definitively

>>4548881

>one post closer to auto-sage

>>4548878
There's literally no tipping thread on any page at all so you're wrong utterly and completely

>>4548878
http://fuuka.warosu.org/ck/?task=search&ghost=yes&search_text=tip

There wasn't one.

>>4548863

How exactly is it spam?

It's contained in a single thread. It is relevant to the board. It is not, as many seem to think, the same images posted over and over again.

Sure, it would be nice if the OP discussed his pictures a bit more, but he did answer questions people asked, and other anons got into discussions about it.

>>4548896
It's junk. Just like it's junk when Sceak posts with a picture of himself eating ice cream on the street. /ck/ isn't his personal blog. If what you want is an occasional Q&A in broken English while looking at photos of mediocre food I'm sure you can find more Asians doing that on Tumblr and Instagram.

at least it was relevant spam that was on topic. who cares if it's recycled shit. it was interesting and I know most people liked looking at them. most of the shit posts comes from the people that dislike the thread but not the poster himself.

>>4537522

>>4548904
>/ck/ isn't his personal blog
You seem to think it's yours by telling everyone what can and can't be posted...

>>4549007

Thanks anon.

The day is drawing near when I will have amassed enough mayo images to start an entire /ck/ sub folder.

Thank you mods!! This thread had nothing to do with Chipotle (tm) and their amazing, high quality food served to you, the consumer at reasonable prices. We're also lucky that Chipotle (tm) carries a wonderful line of Coca Cola (tm) Products to match the fine quality of their food options. Bravo Mods! You deserve a barbacoa burrito with pinto beans (cooked with bacon), brown rice, salsa, and sour cream. For just 3 dollars more, you can get a single dollup of guacamole too!

HoF has conflicted feelings about the continent of Asia because she always tried very hard to fit in with her slightly/accidental racist white people community where she grew up somewhere in flyover land.

She will probably have a midlife crisis at some point and come to embrace her inner KPop, but for now, she must "prove" that she is American as fuck.

>>4549411
Maybe they part of famiry?

I just stumbled upon this thread. Why was OP banned? Was it because this is better suited in the otaku board or something?

>>4549432

Not even the boss knows.

>>4549406
dawwwwww look how happy she is

>>4548730
I don't like these threads because it's just photos of fast casual restaurant meals and prepackaged deli-type foods. Just because it's from Japan doesn't make it kawaii interestingu.

I'm just as much a product of my upbringing as my blood is. And I'll listen to some Kpop. Jpop is an entirely different story though.

You're entitled to disliking them but I'd appreciate it if you shut the fuck up or take your meta to /q/.

>>4549523
Well, they're interesting TO ME because I've never seen those types of food before. Also, their amazing vending machines.

>>4549573
This entire thread is meta and I'm not bumping it. Deal with it.

>>4549630
You can like whatever you like. I respect your preferences. I personally don't like this guy's threads, and I wouldn't be the least bit sad if he never came back, but I never went around reporting/trolling his threads either. This is the first thread of his I've commented in. Live and let live, but I'm not going to pretend to be unhappy about the ban.

>>4549649
You only like spammy threads if you're the one that starts it.

>>4549649
>This entire thread is meta
Because of retards like you. Saging your posts and talking meta does not make it any more acceptable.

>>4549652
>>4549651
I respectfully disagree.

>>4549630
You have never seen this type of food before? After how many fucking reposts of this thread, shit tier japanese restaurants and google and tumblr? Oh, the frozen food aisle of the supermarket? When all these are banal shit tier college food that *happens* to be attributed to Japan? Really?
I am glad this shitposter is gone after fagging this board up for over an entire fucking year. If this bullshit is what you find interesting, perhaps you should fuck off to tumblr.

>>4549902

I never saved any of the threads, but I remember a good amount of expensive restaurant pictures with $90 bottles of wine thrown in with the cheap gas station food.

You're probably the type who gets angry at nice food though, so I can see why your mental filter would have tuned out those types of posts and automatically honed in on the gas station food.

yes, let's take the /ck/ challenge thread, which is about cooking and post it in /q/ - that makes perfect sense.

>>4551821
Thank you for gracing us with your informative post.

>>4551821
If her reason for bitching was that she had to keep seeing the thread that was food related (even though it was not to her taste) then her thread was even worse and has been going on for far longer.

>>4552005
How was I bitching? : | I know I'm usually sunshine and puppies when I post but I have opinions too.

>>4552034
It's simple really: My tastes > Your tastes

Your threads goes on for 3 months or more and I have to see them every time I visit /ck/. I have no interest in them, but I tolerate them because they are /ck/ related and generate OC. Just because you don't like the content of the thread, doesn't mean that they are off topic and the OP should be banned. These thread generate OC also.

And just because it is casual and simple sometimes doesn't mean that it isn't interesting to some people. Pic related is some thing I saw in one of these threads. How much does this single item cost? Probably very little but it made me laugh.

>>4552069
The most extreme thing I said was that I wasn't unhappy about his ban.

>>4552163
These are your words:>>4549523

>I don't like these threads because it's just photos of fast casual restaurant meals and prepackaged deli-type foods. Just because it's from Japan doesn't make it kawaii interestingu.

Basically, didn't like the thread because the food is not expensive enough for you. Must everything be expensive so you can brag to your friends? How typically Korean.

>>4552211
I'm really sorry your feelings were hurt because I don't find packaged sanduwichus from Moon land interesting. If someone was posting the American equivalent of this guy's threads you would probably hate it (and be a lot more vocal about it than me). It's not about the price of the food, I just don't enjoy weeaboo dicksucking. To each his own though. :)

>>4552239
Actually no. Why would I hate the simple things people have to offer? I'm not materialistic like you.

>>4552261
>>4552261
>>4552261
I'm sure a thread full of photos like this would get the same reaction. Sure, lol.

I appreciate simple food too, even fast food. It's not like I live off artisanal bs doused in truffle oil. I'm just tired of this Japanese guy, who clearly has no interest in anything but the food -he- ate. It'd be one thing if he talked about the actual food instead of mechanically listing prices. Or if he was curious about anything but Japanese food, or was capable of saying anything other than how great food from Japan is (>>4548148 was answered but the only thing he had to say was how French restaurants in Japan are better than the ones in France).

>>4552306
Except it wasn't full of those pictures. It was fill of pictures of various dishes from various restaurants. The reason he was listing prices is because somebody asked him how much it cost. And he didn't even say French food in Japan was better, he was saying that the Japanese also eat high class French food but that pictures of everyday French meals were not readily known. That is a whole different matter. If you want to know something about what he ate, just ask.

>>4552316
And then it just loops back into a Q&A about what he ate. It's already been mentioned in this thread but there are countless Tumblr blogs where Asian people take photos of their food. You can even ask them questions, and they'll answer you!

Anyway, I'm not crusading to have this guy banned. As I've said above, like and dislike as you please, and I'll do the same.

>>4552332
Yeah, having people not post about tips, fast food, vegans, college poverty grub sure is hurting /ck/.

All the worlds are put up for one place.
It is the meaning of 4ch.
Different culture lives together and it becomes fortunate.
I wish the realization.

The notice of the price obtained the result.
The unjust blame to the price of Japanese meal was lost.
