/ck/ - Food & Cooking

>>16324025
currently living in extremely rural area so literally cannot even if i wanted to.

>>16324026
What do you grow?
I've been trying to convince people to dry store pumpkins, but they don't really get the concept.

>>16324082
Not much desu. Mainly just potatoes, runner beans and tomatoes. Growing pak choi this year though.

>>16324148
We plant runner beans as a yolo crow, we just hurl them all about the place and see if they grow or not.
Low effort agriculture is best agriculture, and beans put nitrogen into the soil.

Honestly potatoes arent' worth growing, we just buy them from another farmer in bulk and earth them.
Tomatoes unfortunately seem cheaper to import in the form of passata, the large jars we get it in are cheaper than buying new jars- clown world.

I won't order food, buy pre-made meals, or eat out on principal but I'm still too lazy to grow my own, so I just cook. I figure that's good enough.

I ordered kfc. The chicken was dry but the burger was nice

>>16324025
My Brother and I went to KFC to get tendies and he payed, so I'm set, right?

>>16324025
i live in bum fuck nowhere 100 population town so there's no fast food place here lol

>>16324289
There's nothing wrong with that.
It's more about quality ingredients and empowerment, as soon as people forget how to cook the fast food Jews increase their prices and you see people caught in the cycle of eating expensive take out food and eating canned food.
then the canned food goes up in price.

I just made a whole kilo of mirepoix and froze it in batches, so I can fortify soups and sauces for two weeks.

>>16324304
Make the most of it, by improving your lifestyle you can rescue city fags.
In many countries people take a heap of fresh produce into the city to sell informally.

>>16324025
the wife orders it.

>>16324317
Do you eat some of it tho?

>>16324301
depends, who ordered them?

>>16324330
that was implied, anon.

>>16324340
He did, he payed.

>>16324025
do americans really?

>>16324025
I'm Italian and eat fast food like twice a year at most

>>16324366
based.
What do people eat at home in Italy?
I feel like westerners have a very narrow view of Italian cuisine

>>16324025
moved to a retarded country with no good fast food

>>16324025
>t. cooked every meal this week
>do it every week, go out either Friday or Saturday night to a restaurant and order whatever I want
>can't remember the last time I had fast food, may not even be this year
>eat well
>feel well
>be well
I do not understand why people would come online to discuss something like a whopper or a filet of fish. I just made a quick 3 egg omelet for breakfast, maybe 2tbsp of cheese in it and I dipped it in some of my famous homemade salsa then I crammed it up my ass. Took under 5 minutes, way faster and healthier than any fast food.

I never get fast food by myself, only when other people want some

I do occasionally eat garbage like frozen pizzas though if that counts

>>16324420
Depends, but as a general rule 95% eat at least a meal a day at home: as for the dishes, at lunch we mostly eat carbs like pasta, rice, risotto, gnocchi, tortellini, etcetera (or simply a salad if you want to keep it light). For dinner the choice is quite varied: fish, meat, eggs, legumes and everything else basically. You usually eat a side portion of vegetables with every meal. If you have more specific questions I'll be glad to answer

>>16324448
>I do not understand why people would come online to discuss something like a whopper or a filet of fish
That's why I made this thread, the board is being taken over by fast food tards.
>>16324476
Actually frozen pizza isn't necessarily garbage.
I sometimes buy the cheapest margarita pizza which typically has nothing but bread/tomato/some shit herbs.
Typically I add charred capsicum, roast lamb and finish with spinach and tzatziki.
Adding these things takes 3 minutes, it goes from being the worst pizza to being a $1 pizza base.

>>16324487
No matter how many times I make risotto it always ends up like a glue.
Making your own gnocci is easy though, when I stay in a hostel I often get random people in a production line and we all eat gnocci

>>16324496
You know, it's kind of supposed to have a sticky texture, of course not like glue lol: what do you use? Personally I first make a sauté in the pot, then I add the rice and then slowly stock, wine and the other ingredients; you should stir constantly and at last put the butter. At least that's what my father taught me

Nope. I cut it out. Also cut down on drinking too much.

>>16324025
I haven't had fast food in almost 2 years, I keep craving it, and it is extremely delicious if it's mcdonald's or something, I just haven't felt the need to buy it.

>>16324519
Good on you mate, keep at it

>>16324524
I'll break down eventually, and when I do it'll seem like the greatest quarter pounder or whatever I've ever eaten, but it's not anything I'm planning on going out of my way to do. If it happens it happens.

It's been almost three weeks for me :)

>>16324513
I follow the recipe and everything- but it's something about technique.
I can make Uzbek Pilaff correctly, so I'm very angry my risotto is bad

>>16324529
Est modus in rebus: if you have some fast food sometimes you aren't going to die

>>16324533
In my opinion your risotto is absolutely fine and tasty; don't listen to so-called Internet "experts", it ought to be a family dish

I haven't eaten fast food in years.
I spend all my spare cash on alcohol.

>>16324544
It's not bad; but it's not good.
I know what a good risotto is like because I've had many- I wish mine was among them.

Currently cutting, last fast food meal was the mcd "crispy" sandwich, which is obviously a shot at cfa and was simply ok, not great.

>>16324025
Hi.

>>16324025
no fast food here but it runs on both sides of the family

I'm probably going to die from it just like both of my grandparents

me, dying from diabetes: "My ancestors are smiling at me, Imperials. Can you say the same?"

>>16324721
kek.

>>16324025
I do what I want.

Hahaha I bought KFC three days ago and I am posting in this thread! :)

>>16324673
Don't beat yourself up, I'm sure I'd enjoy it ;)

>>16324025
I had to stop ordering fast food as a matter of financial necessity. I was spending too much money buying fast food lunches on lunch break or dinner after work if I had a hard day, so now I had to stop and box my lunches. I buy frozen or refrigerated pizza once every other week to sate my desire for fast food.

>>16324025
I ate a garbage plate two days in the row, I think that counts.

There are
T w e n t y o n e t h r e a d s
About fast food active on this board right now, not including this one. 19 if you don't count fast casual.
I think we need a /ffg/ to quarantine them.

Do you guys order fast food weekly?

I get fast food maybe once a month, but I'm older.

I'd like to see the demographic breakdown of fast food eating.

>>16325372
I remember the last time the last time getting fried chicken in the middle of May after I got my car back from the shop. It was alright and not the best, but it was better than the usual cold sandwich or Vienna sausages at the time. I haven had any recent desire to eat out or order take out.

>>16324026
>rural areas without fast foot

>>16325117
Whilst I believe that the 4Chan/4Channel spilt was a smart move by Hiro I believe that /ck/should do the same and become separate food and cooking boards. /ck/ for cooking and people who genuinely enjoy the culinary arts and /fo/ as a containment board for the McDonald’s junk food type discussion and the YouTube/Eceleb kiddies(face it, even the sh*thole that is /tv/ doesn’t want them).
My suggestion has been generally well received amongst the 4Channel IRC community and I emailed the site owner/admins for their feedback too.
What do you think /ck/? The sticky might actually get published as well!
>pic related: what the average /fo/ poster would look like :D

>>16325372
i used to eat it twice a day most days for a very long time,
i was in a dark place and basically waiting to die at the time, now i lost 100 lbs and quit eating it altogether.
i think a lot of the clientele is in a similar position, they don't care about life and just need something to eat

>>16324025
/fit/ fag here, haven't eaten fast food in months. Can't say I really miss it though

>>16324025
I haven't ordered fast food in years where's my "I'm better than other people" medal?

>>16324025
does chinese food count, I got some roast pork ends and a hot and sour soup a few days ago

>>16324025
this week? I haven't ordered fast food in years

i'm ordering fast food as i type this
goodbye lads

All you slow food eaters can get fucked. I post where I want. That is all.

>>16326400
Oh dear, that's actually frightening

>>16326386
allergy ?

>>16326400
Holy fuck! That should be required to be printed on the can. Perhaps that would reduce our obesity rate from 42% to 35%.

>>16324025
okay

>>16326633
don't count on it. Americans will flat out get defensive and argue that they PREFER being fucked over by the laxness of consumer protection laws

>>16324025
I haven't had fast food in probably about a year
I wish I could have a nice burger right now

>>16324025
Guys it's so hard, I can't stop thinking about her (my waifu: Big Mac)
t. one week without the sweet kiss of my wife's secret sauce

>>16324025
Cool. I eat six eggs, six turkey sausage links, and a head of broccoli every day, as well as one spoon full of peanut butter. I also lift heavy. Still don't have a gf.

Last time I ordered junk food was 2 months ago

>>16324025
well i didnt order it...

>>16325104
Forget about the money, just choose to cook your own food.
I used to work on a building site and brought stacks of sandwiches, bento, curry rice, ceasar salad.

You can't buy that kind of variety

>>16325117
Someone is paid to make them, surely shills must be involved.
/ck/ used to be a poorfag cooking board, now it's just fast food.
At least /alc/ is still good

>>16326020

>>16324025
I had fast food today. What will you do about it?

>>16327277
Checked, WAGMI

>>16324025
Going on 14 years

Just ordered a bacontor from Wendy's and spicy nugs. Still posting in this thread. Cope harder, fatty.

Could anyone here go a whole day without eating?
When was the last time you went a day without eating?

>>16328453
do amerifats really?

>>16324025
>you can only order shitty food you can't make it yourself
wut

>>16324025
I live on an island with no fast food chains at all. There was a Burger King years ago but it sucked and was always packed with people. A new "drive through" opened recently but I havent tried it. We do have a delivery service but I've only ordered from them a few times ever. I honestly don't see the appeal.

>>16329236
Last week, it's not that hard. I can count all my rib bones.
