Hi /ck/
I've been living off the 'meal deal' at the local grocery store. I usually get a smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwich, 500ml of coconut water and a little pot of melon and grapes or mango for £3.25. What other foods should I add to my diet? I am worried I am not getting enough nutritions.

Take a multivitamin after each meal if you're seriously that paranoid.

It would take three hours to get through the grocery store. You'd always get behind the old/fat/indecisive/unaware/incompetent customer that doesn't know wtf is going on or what aisle they're on.

Still, I'm sure they're very proud of their improved buggy whip.
So I got a block of pic related. I was thinking of just browning some stewing beef and simmering it with chunks of carrots and onions - anyone here make this stuff regularly?
the only thing vermont is good for is eliteist liberals
Pretty much that is it. You can add whatever you want. If you feel that it needs a boost of flavor. Add some Ketchup or worcestershire sauce.

Add some potatoes too. Vermont curry is one of the best instant curries. Don't expect it to be spicy hot but
Watchs gon' get?

A lonely breakfast at a local cafe.
How's your morning, /ck/?
>>7267005
Breakfast was just okay. I had leftover ribs from last night so I made burritos. I also drank a big glass of chocolate milk like a little kid. No mustache though.
One chocolate brownie clif bar. I hate my life.

>I had leftover ribs from last night so I made burritos.
That actually sounds like a fucking awesome breakfast

They fed us at work yesterday! I've never seen so much catered food in my life. Doesn't this look good?
Are any of you lucky enough to have a job -- aside from food service -- where food is free a lot of the time?

My mum makes my lunch that I take to work so I guess that counts.
1.) Soups come frozen in bags, I don't know the recipes.
2.) While the pastries and breads actually are made in the restaurant, those are made by overnight workers and I never snapped photos of the recipes.
3.) Yes, we stop using gloves on your stuff within 30 minutes of close.
I never eaten there before, what things should I avoid getting and what is the best deals?
>>7266810
So the breads are really made in the store or is it pre-made garbage?
>>7266851
Classic salad is the best deal due to a bug in the register system. Buy one and ask for the following:
Double Everything
Everything on the side
You'll get a second salad free. This works for all salads, but cheeses and meats do have a charge for getting double, so it'll cost more than one salad but less than the two you're getting. Danishes are okay, but those things are calorie dense. All pastas are microwaved.
>>7266854
Breads are really made in the store, though they do come with actual premade mixes in most cases.
>Finland
Finnish school food pics thread cu/ck/s!
Today we have pretty good groundbeef soup and its free!
I didnt like it
Holy shit this was actually crap. We are lucky that even bread is free
We had those kind of soups in Sweden too when I grew up. Bland and tasteless as fuck.
Now pancake day on the other hand. That was something else.
hey buddies
i'm looking for a couple of tips and other stupid shit you can do to make your tea taste better / be better.
HERE'S MY TIP:
For green tea, works on black tea (Red if you're indian but the indians got tea wrong anyway)
Put white rice in your tea, teaspoon or less. I haven't gotten it down to an exact science. It makes the tea taste way more "bold," if you will.
Learned it from a japanese restaraunt.
tl;dr WHITE RICE IN GREEN TEA
Put raw ginger root in your tea, slice off a decent sliver and put that shit in your green tea, adds flavor, plus ginger is good for you and that shit is impossible to eat otherwise.
Put a mint leaf in your tea
no shit it now tastes like fresh mint
whats the difference between tea from china and tea from England?
Hi guys!
Most weekends, me and my boyfriend cook together. However we often have difficulty deciding what to make because we don't want anything with ingredients that are too expensive, and we want foods where we both have a role in its creation.
My question for you guys is, what are some great things me and him can make together?! Thanks so much!
You can always make some snowballs at home
>>7266669
Post dick, faggot
I hate cooking with my girlfriend. She refuses to do anything because she's afraid she'll mess it up. She just stands there giving me compliments.
Because it has become so fucking different that im not going to even categorize them as the same thing.
Why has Italian food gone to shit?
Why do Italian places seem to always serve you on something the size of a hubcap...Dont they know less is better?
Why do they insist on telling us its their grandma homemade recipes...but use shit canned ingredients?
Have you thought about asking the people you believe are guilty instead of asking us?
>>7266590
Why not ask you?
>>7266600
Because I don't make Italian food in restaurants. Context clues.
I often see pictures of guys on /ck/ with big ol' containers or bags of herbs and spices. Now, I walk into my local grocery store and a tiny thing of herbs/spices is often like $8 which is high in my opinion. Where does everyone get their spices from on the cheap? Do you use a bulk buy website that saves you on cost?
>>7266479
Go to the markets.
But for home use you're better off buying smaller quantities so you restock frequently and always have fresher stuff. It's not that much more expensive.
halal markets and asian markets have pretty cheap spices usually
>>7266479
I get mine from the bulk section of my local HEB. You just fill up a bag with as much as you want and it's all super cheap.
But regardless -_- i have invented something interesting: a new way to make hot chocolate.
im sure there are those among you who make hot chocolate with a blender/spoon or other such contraption.
And sure -_- these devices work... but as i was making my french silk style scrambled eggs earlier, a thought came to me, "airation: a culinary concept often used in eggs" (and funnily enough, historically used in hot chocolate as well... as i discovered in my "postproduction" phase of this posting) could be applied to hot chocolate for interesting results.
So the plan? -_- use a whisk rather than a spoon to stir my hot chocolate.
The results? -_- a highly frothy, very smooth chocolately drink - a success :2
>>7266449
Good job faggot, that's how I've always made hot chocolate.
>>7266457
-_- thanks for the feedback
>>7266464
It's okay though.
I'm sure your technique for cooking bread to a toasty temperature will be a big hit with the investors.
