I don't. I'll keep them under my pillow.

[Anonymous No.4743757]

Sure! You guys know how to take care of cast iron, right?

[Anonymous No.4743758]

I'll leave them in my suitcase unless I'm using them, thanks though

[Anonymous No.4743763]

I just got done with this bullshit. Food stolen constantly. A fucking pot disappeared.. Disafuckingpeared.

I'm back to being studio apartment shutin masterrace. Feels good.

What's cast iron, anon

[Anonymous No.4743785]

>Have one cast-iron pan for myself
>Have one plate, one bowl, set of cutlery
>Cook and then immediately clean
>Leftovers go into my minifridge next to alcohol
>No problems, ever
>Use their plates and shit if I have people over, then clean that night

It's not hard at all.

Oh god, you're one of those roommates with a mini fridge?

[Anonymous No.4743805]

>>4743799

If you don't have a minifridge you're doing it wrong.

Use it for drinks, if nothing else.

[Anonymous No.4743810]

>>4743805
Why would you want to waste space for a minifridge unless you manage to fill a regular one? Walking twenty steps to get a drink is not that hard.

[Anonymous No.4743817]

>I cleaned your pan for you, anon. I hope you dont mind.

[Anonymous No.4743825]

When your room is less than 5 cubic meters then you have a limited choice. Also, people find it more difficult to steal shit from you.

I'm happy for you that you're lucky enough to have not had such nasty and childish roommates as I.

Last year I had roommates who'd occasionally do a really shitty job of washing my things up so I'd secretly rewash them at 3am.

I'm moving into new uni accommodation in September, and I'm scared of kitchen shenanigans.

What do I do? I'm massively anaphylactic, and I don't want to share my shit.

Then neither a borrower nor lender be and keep your things elsewhere away from the prying eyes and grabbing hands of others, under lock and key, if necessary. Explain the sitch, and your roomies should be fine. Pretty simple, IMO.

Why wouldn't you want more space than a half of one shelf?

I've lived in 3-4 person apts since college and I have two mini fridges, one for food and one for drinks. I don't use the main fridge.

[Anonymous No.4744013]

How do you guys deal with leaving ingredients in the fridge?

Should I label my shit?

[Anonymous No.4744041]

>>4743752

Sure, I'm so happy to be here!

>unpack cheap aluminium pots and pans
>keep ridiculously expensive stainless steel pots and pans from my Grandma in boxes or in storage.
>if caught, excuse is that they were my Grandmas really expensive pots and I don't cook with them, like I wouldn't eat off the bone china set she also left me, which is being kept in my mother's safe cabinet.

[Anonymous No.4744046]

>>4744013

always label your things clearly, unless they are house items. I had to do this with my family, if I bought sweets or something I'd have to label it or eat it right away.

ignore anyone that complains.

[Anonymous No.4744055]

You guys should live with my mom:

>You don't have to let the meat (steak) rest!
>You don't need to wait for it (steak) come to room temperature. I've never heard of that before.
>Send her articles how all cooks do
>You don't need to do it. Waste of time.

Or the time she bought a cast iron pan used
>I've been letting it soak with soap and water overnight now but it's still greasy so I put a little cleaning solution in it and let it soak

my roommates and i had an unspoken agreement, there were imaginary partitions in the fridge belonging to each person.

i really only used part of the freezer though, i kept most of my shit in a minifridge.

also it helps that my roommates were genuinely decent people, which is far from the norm.

[Anonymous No.4744303]

No, it works the other way. People can eat your vegetarian/vegan food but you can't eat their non-vegatarian/non-vegan food.

>use each other's kitchenware respectfully

I feel sorry for you poor fucks who can't sustain adult relationships. Must suck to be you.

At least your roommates didn't stick a pot of soup in the refrigerator to rot (literally) twice. I cleaned the first one, the second time they through the pot away while I was out of town.

[Anonymous No.4744372]

>>4744303
the joke there is that vegetarian/vegan food is fucking disgusting

[Anonymous No.4744392]

>Roommate never cleaned anything
>Had rich parents who would hire a maid to come in and clean up after their daughter once a week
>My bedroom door had no lock on it
>Come back one day to find that the maid had cleaned my room, stolen a few things that I had left in plain view not expecting some bitch to come in
>Had also left my expensive knife in the kitchen
>It's gone
>Confront roommate/her parents/the maid service, they all deny that anything happened
>Can't "prove" it, it's just my word against theirs

Now I live alone and I'm intensely paranoid. Everything worth over $10 is locked up or hidden.
