none. foods are constantly changing some people may make stuff over and over, but that happens to all generation and is not a boomer thing.

Lolwut. Boomers are the primary market of the iPad. They put the magnification mode on "Legally Blind" and they don't have to wear their reading glasses while using it. I don't think I ever met a single boomer who liked wearing their reading glasses. Too much vanity for them.

It was a joke on how old people are always complaining that their grandchildren are always on their ipads (in classic boomer fashion, not seeing the hypocrisy in the fact that they also spend many hours on their ipads)

Too introverted these days to run into that, but I always remember my grandparents didn't like me reading inside all the time rather than doing more "kid-like" activities, and this feels similar.

Eat fresh, local, in season. Cauderlier, Paul Bocuse, Raymond Oliver, Roger Vergé, Gaston Clément, Frères Troisgros, Georges Blanc, Gualtiero Marchesi, Nadia Santini, Olivier Roellinger, Bertrand Pacaud, Bertrand Loiseau, Michel Guérard, Père Bise, Roger Souvereyns, Micehel Bras, La mère Brazier, Pierre Gagnaire, Pierrot Fontaine, Frédy Girardet, and the greatest of them all: Willy Slawinsky. Good luck finding their recipes and the equally gifted colleagues they had.

[Anonymous No.19068193]

>>19068184
Because a whole loaf is huge and it's a extremely unhealthy treat. You shouldn't be eating bread every day. 85%+ meat and dairy diet for good health.

What you should do is freeze it not refrigerate. Refrigerating bread is the worst thing you can do.

ACTUAL "boomers" (not whatever your ignorant 20-something opinion says) were born during the actual post WW2 baby boom.
Fuck Wikipedia, etc, these people were born in the late 40's and MAYBE the earliest part of the 50's. The youngest ACTUAL boomers are 70+ years old, and I doubt more than 1% of them could figure out how to post on the 4chins.
They have nothing to do with anybody here. You might as well be complaining about how much you hate on Tudors.

Why the fuck would I not freeze those things? Do you enjoy eating food that is going rotten? The only thing I don't freeze is salad, milk, and occasionally eggs. I freeze eggs too but I go through a dozen or so a day so no need.

It's possible to have a well-stocked kitchen and still buy fresh for whatever you feel like making that night.

Granted, it's a lot easier to do in NYC where there can be grocery stores and bodegas on every block, fresh fruit & veg sidewalk vendors everywhere, and massive farmer's markets, than in the food deserts of exurbia. But even so.

Boomers were born between 1946-64. They drove rock music, for example. Rap started taking over as they finally entered middle age.
Everything we like and remember as good is from Boomers.
Movies? Capt. Jack Sparrow, Coen Bros & Boomers.
TV? Sopranos was all Boomers. As was Seinfeld & good Simpsons.
Politics? Trump is a Boomer. Biden is not

Boomers come should be split into to groups, those who came of age in the 50s and 60s and those who came of age in the 70s and early 80s. The older boomers are the ones eating a lot of "traditional" boiled slop and fake European crap that seems fancy without offending their tastes. The younger boomers grew up on pizza and fast food, so their tastes are more modern.
