Australia food winge thread
why is all out food so fucking expensive?
why have discount supermarket chains like ALDI gained a foothold yet?
why is out supermarket bread made of air, sucrose and preservatives?
why is alcohol taxed at 30%
The price of meat really pisses me off.
There is basically no cut of red meat that regularly costs less than $10 a kilo any more.
>>7530401
It's a little expensive, but not as high as whingers make out.
Aldi's relative cheapness is a myth.
Sucrose? I'm starting to doubt you've even been to Australia.
Because raising alcohol prices does not stop Australians from buying it.

Their cornetto knock offs are really good
Anyone on that 5:2 diet? This is my fourth week this week and I'm finding it very sustainable so far.
I've got no particular recipes though. Any suggestions?
>>7517940
First time hearing about this diet. Is it actually effective? It sounds really good.
>>7517998
I'm not hugely fat or anything. Very top end of health, BMI wise (yeah, I know bmi isn't a great system). I've lost around 8 lbs since I started it.
Like I said it's seemed like it'd be sustainable long term if I wanted. My normal eating days haven't changed much, though I suppose I do make the odd healthy decision on those days, since I can see I'm making progress.
There's a good BBC documentary that features the diet and other fasting diets. Interested in me digging the name out for you?
One choice brisket and one prime. Started 4 hours ago. Fuck, I'm tired.

Are you going to stay awake the whole time? Got someone to help you?
How do you like your meat cooked?
If the word "medium" isn't in your answer, you are a fucking pleb
Well done means it is cooked well. I don't take meat cooked to meme doneness.
in the middle of medium well and well done please
it's just perfect that way
only the finest michellelin starred chefs can hit that sweet spot for me
>>7533133
I cook different cuts of meat to different levels of doneness, because I know how to cook and don't pay attention to memes.

Can someone explain the difference between soul food and southern food pls?
Soul food has specifically black connotations.
Southern food encompasses all regional food from the South.
Buy a bag of M&M's. Take one M&M out. That's the difference.
>>7531997
black cooks
>soul food
southern white cooks
>southern food
we have no soul i rectum
Tobacco is /ck/.
What are you smoking/chewing? I picked up a pack of pic related. Not bad, but I prefer Camel unfiltered.
I smoke quite infrequently, usually when I need to take ten minutes away from the kitchen at work; I will walk over to the gas station and pick up a Black & Mild woodtip "Jazz". Used to smoke Camel wides and Djarums, or Lucky Strikes once in a blue moon, but then the government went and banned flavored cigarettes (such bullshit that menthols didn't get hit by that, kids fucking LOVE menthols), and then they mandated prerolled cigarettes have to come with plastic in the papers, and now I can't even enjoy the ones I used to. I guess I can still do hand rolled American Spirit, but I don't smoke enough to justify buying a can, and the pouches are practically stale when you get them.
>>7531957
I smoke a pipe and smoke Sir Walter Raleigh or Captain Blacks. Good stuff.

As part of my new "Man-Up" program I have promise to myself and loved ones that I am exercising, eating healthy, learning new things (you know, things that I should be doing regardless of promises).
Since I live in Glorious Tijuana I have 19 places to eat in a 1km radius, 17 of them unhealthy so I better learn to make dam good food
About what I like; I love rice and I would like to learn recipes on which I can substitute bread with rice. I have plenty of fruits available and I reallylike them. i despise most salads for being boring af.
Any ideas?
This is /fastfood-franchises and snacks/, maybe you should try /fit/.
Here's what I eat on my cut
Protein shake in morning before lifting
After lifting, one cup of oats, 1/4 cup sunflower seeds, one banana
Lunch is either peanut butter sandwich if I didn't cook the night before, or some sort of bean oriented meal. I make lots of chili/stew.
Dinner is a big salad with a can of garbanzo beans, spinach, more sunflower seeds, peppers, and balsamic vinaigrette.
Another protein shake before bed
I've been losing about 1 1/2 pounds per week while maintaining strength and energy and never really starving myself.

I have seeing some threads dedicated to similar things I want, I just need more recipes and have them all in one place
And about /fit/...I am not going there
A buddy of mine who skins hunted animals for a living just came by and dropped off a cooler full of game meat, most of it moose and deer, but among it was some bear burger. I have never cooked with ground bear meat before, and am wondering what exactly I should do with it. I could make burgers, but bear meat isn't something I come across often, so I'd prefer to do something more special. Any thoughts /ck/?
what kind of bear is it?
>>7531595
Black bear I believe.

Can we talk about how absolutely terrible this stuff is? It tastes like they made it by dissolving root beer flavored jelly beans in carbonated water and adding a little vanilla vodka. Too sweet to palate and lacking in actual sassafras flavor.
tastes more like a shitty creme soda than it does a root beer
>>7531566
>actual sassafras flavor.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't that been banned since the 1960s?
I've tried all of the fad "hard soda" beers, and NYF isn't the worst out there.
That goes to Best Damn Root Beer. It tastes like a goddamn watery root beer barrel hard candy (the bad kind, not the A&W kind) drowned in vanilla.
Sprecher's Hard Root Beer tastes more like beer than root beer. Can barely taste the sugar at all.
Coney Island is the best. They basically toned down the sweetness from NYF and removed the fucking hand sanitizer scent.
Woah there, buddy! You gonna let that wine breathe a little?
>red goon
it's like reaching rock bottom
and then punishing yourself further for your mistakes
>>7531459
im drinking box wine. i'm obviously drinking to get fucked up, because my life is falling apart. So no, im not going to let it breathe. I'm going to drink the entire box in one sitting and hope that i dont wake up.
i always like when Wine snobs go INSANE over the year of the wine, like they can fucking tell the difference of a 1964 vs a 1965 or some such trite
youd have to be dead drunk 24/7, 365 days a year on different wines for YEARS to be able to tell the difference between fermented grape juices made at different times

So its like a religious cult or something?
Have you ever stolen silverware or dishware from a Restaurant /ck/ or have you ever dined and dashed?
Be honest now /ck/.
Personally I don't do either, but my friend's younger sister whenever she goes out to eat she basically takes the whole damn table of silverware with her in her purse or the to-go-box, she'll even steal the little metal cups they put butter in. I've never witnessed her do it, but her brother tells me she does.
I've never dined and dashed either but my best friend and his boyfriend went out to eat at an Italian Restaurant with his boyfriend's mother, she said she was going to pay for everything, but the line was so long at the cash register, she got bored and said let's go, and said she would mail them a check, neither of them brought money with them because she said she would pay so they went quietly left with her, no one seemed to notice they were so busy.
The boy's mother is kind of homely, like trailer trash so I doubt she mailed them any damn check.
Anywho, be honest /ck/ do you ever steal silverware at restaurants and accidentally or purposefully dined and dashed?
>>7531053
I dined and dashed at a cuban place once. Also stole ketchup bottles from a diner
>>7531053
Did she put her hair up and enjoy every minute of it?
I took a Waffle House plate and coffee cup at three in the morning while the employees raged out on each other. Sadly, it didn't devolve beyond hair pulling.
