/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I don't think my cooking is special. I just think it's better and less likely to give me indigestion than restaurants that cost as much if not exponentially more than my cooking.

For example, I managed to get 5 lbs of salmon filets for 35 bucks back when it was on sale. About 6-9 servings of fish -easy-. For reference: I just looked up what my local restaurants are selling salmon for. Judging by the photos this is probably similar farmed salmon that I have.

They sell 4-6 oz for between 16 and 22 bucks. Probably cooked in a cheap oil, adulterated with cheap fillers, and ambiguously sourced.

Sure, I could get a higher quality wild caught salmon or salmon farmed in a cushy, high regulation place like british columbia or something, but it's pretty good fish and I am eating it at 3.50 per 8 oz of fish. There is no way a restaurant would sell me the same quality of fish for even double that price.

And at the rate I'm going, in the future when I am producing my own food there will be even less restaurants that I will be interested in unless I wanna blow way too much money on it.
