I don't know how much food costs now. I haven't been outside in months.
Apparently prices have gone up, but I wouldn't know.
I just find myself daydreaming about the food I used to eat in the past. Even now I just remembered eating a can of fucking pringles, and it's fucking junk food I haven't had in half a decade.
Is this happening to anyone else? What foods do you miss from pre-corona?
To clarify, what I mean is do you miss some foods that you haven't had in a long time, not necessarily that it doesn't exist anymore (went out of business- as unlikely as that is).

Sit down restaurants and being served without having to wear a m*sk or s*nitize. I also haven't had popcorn in months because I don't think it's worth making stovetop and haven't gone to the theatre.

how do you even do that? I've only done it one and some came out slightly burnt(small tinge of brown) at the bottom.

I miss the free, healthy food at work and eating with my coworkers everyday. Sick of cooking for myself or ordering overpriced sloppa. Things will never be the same again.

What a bunch of whiny children you all are. Now is the time to man up and learn the ways of cooking, but noooooooo... - you just sit there and wish for the good old days.

I learned a fuck ton in these times. Even on this godforsaken board you can learn a thing or two if you ask. Grow up.

I missed going to the diner before uni lectures and getting frenchtoast and a fruit smoothie for $9 and then going at 3am in the morning for a burger and milkshake. Was comfy even though I went alone.

If you engage in meaningful conversation, you might be surprised what you can learn. Two weeks ago I asked for essential freezer items and some anon suggested to freeze leftovers from cutting vegetables to create my very own vegetable broth.

It's not my fault I cook for fun.
Mixing spices to see what happens and what I did wrong in itself is more entertainment than I'll get from watching the trash on television.

That's nice but I already had hobbies using up all my time before covid.
>>14943163
Lmao you sound like a woman, I'm sure you wouldn't do anything but make a passive aggressive remark. Men generally have more important stuff to do than preparing food for themselves. But I have to concede that in 2020, women don't even know how to cook either.

I'd passive aggressively remark your ass, son. Pathetic beta midget. You won't cook because your daddy taught you the way of the "industrial busy boomer". What a failure you are. You make me sick. I think I need to make some fine cuisine to cool off, fucking failed biomass.

That sounds like a lot of projection. I would rather eat something prepared by someone who is skilled, and I'm not interested in spending the time on it myself.

I wasn't cooking before covid but now I have to. I don't see it as hobby or interest just a necessity like basic hygiene and physical activity.

None, what third wolrd country do you live in that you can't get the same things that where available pre-corona at this point in time, let alone buy some pringles.
Restaurants are open here, albeit with some seating restrictions.
At no point during corona was getting god damn pringles an issue here.

I used to make popcorn in a pressure cooker with the gasket removed so it had no actual pressure, worked ok. It was always slightly more "stale" (I don't think it's actually stale, but it had a slightly stale-bread kind of texture) than I'd like but I wasn't sure if it was just the bag of popping corn I had

What does corona have to do with you not getting pringles what the fuck. It isn't the fucking apocalypse you can walk to a store and buy pringles.
