First time on /ck/, couldn't find any generals so thought I'd post a new thread for the lunch I just made. Can anyone give me any feedback on my chickpea feast?

Don't have her eat asparagus
For me it's the McChicken

Don't buy your loved one an edible arrangement this coming mother or fathers day.
I bit the bullet and payed 65 dollars for this little shit of a bouquet,
Know how much fucking fruit I could have bought with that money?
It's better to buy your own fruit, cut that shit up, and enjoy it with the family in a fondue pot.
Happy Mothers day, plebs.
What a chump lol
>>8933286
>people should work for free
>a service being offered for a clearly stated price is bad because I'm stupid
When I first saw these places spreading I was like holy shit they are going to go out of business in six months. And here we are years later and they're thriving. I'm ok with this. Stupid tax to punish the stupid.
Normie tip: normies send flowers. Flowers have always worked. Why anyone would want to send their mother a plate of mutilated fruit in a plastic bag is beyond me
>>8933298
Flowers arent expensive enough, and obviously the more money you spent on someone the more your love him/her :^)
What is it with western countries and coffee makers/machines?
Is it shitty to them or just unheard of to make Turkish style coffee?
Most people don't have tiny little appendages and feelers to work with roach-sized instruments.
>>8932946
Pretty sure there are multiple sizes for kettles.
And it's not like a kettle is the only utensil for boiling water. You can make it in a smaller pot as far as I'm concerned, it's what my grandma does when the family gathers together.
>>8932922
Turkish coffee is awful
I don't normally bitch about fast food. I have been a patron of the Colonel, the King, and the Clown at various points and I feel no shame... but this fucking place. Subway is where food goes to die. Its not even that, its purgatory. Everything sucks. If its not the food, its the service. If its not the service, its the other patrons. Some people have roadrage, I have Subway rage. People resort to fast food sometimes. They say to themselves "Im to lazy to cook and don't want spend much or sit in a restaurant for the better part of an hour" so you go get some food. That happened to me tonight.
>Hungry
>Lazy
>Subway only one block away
>Walk to subway
>Wait in line with other midnight wanderers
>One person working the counter
>Food stops being fast food when its slow
>Man walks in and walks straight to the bathroom and asks for the code
>Jaded overworked employee tells him the punch code
>Man takes a step in and then backs out and goes to the employee and asks him for a staxk of napkins
>The employs asks why.
>Man tells him he has to take a shit and theres too much blood on the toilet and sink to do it.
>Employee shrugs and gives him a stack of napkins
>Man goes back to the bathroom and opens the door to go inside
>There is indeed blood splattered on the toilet and sink
>Pay and leave with sanwich
>Appetite gone
>Fuck subway
Just get a cold cut combo with as many vegetables as possible and mayo/sub sauce, it's not worth delving into the rest of the menu especially given the price
>>8932878
>Everything sucks.
I like their cookies.
>>8932887
I hope you shit yourself so hard you burst into flames.
What are the best options for nutritionally complete meal replacement powders?
I currently drink this for lunch errday but it's not affordable imho and it tastes like crap.
Also there's Soylent, which everyone knows about but it's not economical either.
Well the one you take now is slightly better than Soylent at least, since Soylent is just ground up oat and protein powder with a multivitamin crushed into it
>>8932797
Why is it slightly better?
>>8932791
>raw organic meal replacement
>there is actually a market for this
What the fuck.
Anthony Bourdain vs Andrew Zimmern
Go
>>8932713
One is a nice guy who loves his job and the other is a drug addict wishing for death.
I'll let you decide which is which.
>average career line cook who got famous by writing a book about the only thing he knows droning on and pretending to be knowledgeable about about anything outside nyc
>vs a bald gross looking fag who sublimates his repressed homosexuality into a love of eating horse cock - and pretty much anything that isn't his wife's punani
What is this, 2007?
I'd rather an Action Bronson, desu.
Bourdain is more entertaining, but Zimmern keeps the political bullshit out of his shows. He still praises the multicult, but at least it's entirely in the service to the food whereas Bourdain is a full blown faggot with that shit.
>go to ex-colonial country
>congratulate the natives on kicking the dirty whites out and reclaiming their lands
>go to white country
>praise all the brown people flooding in and making everything horrible
The hypocrisy is too much.
>eat 3 eggs for dinner daily to save money and calories
>eat 3 fried eggs the first day
>still feel hungry
>eat 3 hard boiled eggs the next day
>still feel hungry
>eat a 3 egg omelette (plain) on the third day
>feel full
>eat 3 fried eggs again on the 4th day to prove it's not my body getting accustomed to the 3 egg dinner diet
>still feel hungry
Huh!?
>eating egg battered into a massive sponge makes me feel more satiated
you dont say?
are you retarded or just felt the need to shitpost?
>>8932698
Not op just a separate retard. How is an omelette more fulling if it's the same amount of egg?
>>8932706
More volume
How would you describe the "ginger ale" flavour?
>>8932633
Taste like the bullet through the roof of my mouth I want when I drink ginger ale
>>8932633
Shitty ginger beer.
Fizzy, bitter with a refreshing bite
I just got diagnosed with diabeetus type 2.
Can anyone recommend some good, relatively easy low carb meals and /or snacks?
Right now I'm not doing much more than cooking some frozen broccoli with chicken.
>>8932577
Stop eating animal products
>>8932620
Wait, what? Is that a thing?
Everything I've read suggests lean proteins, primarily chicken and fish.
>>8932644
Ignore the vegas anon.

Fellow Flip here who lived there for 3 years as a kid. I'm sad that I hear nowadays you can't get taba ng talangka(small crab roe) anymore in its pure form, as it's always mixed with some shit to stretch it out. I only had a jar of it once, and it was amazing. Yeah, I could replicate it well with blue crab roe, but it's just nostalgic and convenient to have it all in a jar. Also, fishballs are awesome, but they don't sell Pinoy fishballs here in the states; it's all that spongy Chinese shit. Plus, there's no good recipe that I know of, I want the cheap commercial kind, the crispy but chewy, slightly flattened kind. I need to try that youtube commercial version that's the first result, but apparently you need to tweak it due to moisture levels that are unaccounted for. All the homestyle recipes are shit.
Also, you can get fried fish and soft shelled crabs anywhere
>tfw I looked up tawilis and they're vulnerable, bordering on endangered
A small, freshwater fish that can be eaten whole isn't being farmed or raised in aquaculture? Why not I wonder.
I'm from western Canada, routine isnt very big here. Something we have in Vancouver that I've never seen anywhere else is Japadog: it's a chain of hot dog stands that use high quality wieners topped with Japanese food toppings. It's super tasty.
>>8932758
I should start one named Koreadog.
Went to Golden Corral tonight
What's your buffet experience like /ck/?
>>8932431
My buffet experience was not great. I was not drunk enough i think
not bad for golden carrol. i think they're a step better then hometow buffet
Back in PH, we have Vikings. Around $19 USD
Nice and wide array of choices. Too many that you can't try everything on one go.
Meh. I'd need to sneak in a saltshaker and MSG just to get flavor on most of the food.
Hotpots are well seasoned though.
Rate it 7/10
*orders one of everything*
*still has change for the bus home*
(:
>pays 100 dollar membership fee per year
And holy shit, check out the calories on each of those whole pizzas. That can't be right.
>>8932375
You don't have to have a membership to use the food court, Anon!
/energydrinkgeneral/
Why do certain companies not actually know how to make their drinks not taste like spicey piss? Generic Monster tastes legitimately bad, so does generic Rockstar. Nos is bad.
It's only the fruit flavored ones that taste semi-decent. Why can't they get their shit together?
try this OP and you'll thank me
pitbull>redbull>everything else
tastes and feels like drinking a battery
>>8932404
red bull has literally zero potency
esp. because they put it in little 8oz containers that give you the same amount of liquid as a small syringe
Is it soda or pop?
Sugar water.
Pepsi = soda
Coke = coke
Crush = pop
Dr. Pepper = coke
Sierra Mist = soda
It's soda in all parts of the country that matter.
Is it actually worth buying?
For me, it's the McChicken.
>>8932256
Is the hangman's knot worth learning to tie?
>>8932256
Americans will never know the joys of a McChicken™ with a seeded bun.
