/ck/ - Food & Cooking

What a terrible post. I wrote it at 6:30 this morning before posting was disabled.

I have a case of the stupids today.

Remember before taking buying advice from /ck/, they are really adamant that the 39 cent ramen is better than that 49 cent ramen and their local fast food eater is simply better because reasons.

I got the classic like with the D shaped handle. I enjoy the chef's knife and have a whustof santoku (xmas gift). If all I'm doing is vegetable prep the santoku is perfect for chopping. The chef knife can do it but is heavier and has a different requiring a different motion for the same task.

I've found most people here don't like Shun because they do cost a bit more, they're pretty, they're japanese, and people who own them really love them. They're a different steel from german knives meaning they're harder: they hold an edge much longer and a result a little harder to sharpen.

I nearly bought a paring knife because money was burning a hole in my wallet, but even when I had a Henkel paring knife at my disposal, it was used mostly to open packages or cut a steak. I dont really have a need for delicate cuts a paring knife would provide.

Shun's are great knives, they're made with a different steel from german knives so they'll hold an edge for longer, but are more difficult to sharpen.

I've found more people hating shun knives because they chip, are too expensive, and are Japanese without ever having held one.

It was pretty good, actually tasted like what the label said: coffee, chocolate, oak. They had a few other recently that I've enjoyed. Their cherry chocolate bock was fantastic, wish it were more available.

Yeah, this is America, if you don't like it, you can git out!

leave out the club soda, put in an ice cube or two. sip it like a man. Grow a beard, throw a woman over your shoulder, and decry AMERICA IS MY HOMELAND!

I'm drinking beer

>2.2ounces of meat.
Its over rated but fairly priced.

Chicken and pumpkin soup. Assuming you have pumpkin puree, and not sweetened pumpkin pie mix.

Get a cheap knife they said. It'll do everything a nice knife can do they said.

Why don't they believe us when we tell them nicer knives really are nicer?

Zaya 12 is great and definitely worth the $35 I usually pay for it. BUY IT

I got one last week, small amount of pre-chewed chicken meat with taco seasoning and about 12 fritos. I won't be getting it again. gotta stick with the classic sweet onion chicken or buffalo chicken.

Rum. neat.

Chewy bacon is best bacon.

Crispy bacon is for little children and faggots.

Hot water actually freezes faster than room temp water. And scienticians cannot come to an agreement as to why.

I'll bet their feathers and all that chickenshit burned something awful.

How did the fire start?

Agreed, depending on location it can blow tacobell out of the water.

And I've been to some shitty deltaco's that have ruined muh day.

So basically your argument is that the company is making too much profit on their products sold?

>There is no reason for a place like Chipotle to charge over $8 for a burrito when it costs less than $1 to make.

1.)They're a business and need to make a profit?
2.) Many people are willing to pay such a price for the convenience of not having to make the burrito themselves
3.) They hate poor people and don't want them in their store.
4.) Fuck you, start your own burrito chain and sell them for $1.50 that size.

Usual: children's cereal
Favorite: Bacon, a whole damn plate of it
this morning: breakfast burrito, only 1 strip of bacon

i'm pretty drunk and made bolillo rolls. But i used an egg wash on them so they're just a little too crusty for me.

I have a new bread knife thats supposed to be here monday. I was going to cut bread with them

$3.79 here in Cali. The combo is like 5.79.

I have a feeling its because nobody orders them except old people and religious nuts during lent or whatever.

I've only had like 2 of these ever, and they're not worth more than $2.

I just got a 1.5 liter bodum french press. My gunpowder green and African Rooibos is so much more fragrant and flavorful. Not to mention theres no dust or leaves in my cup anymore.

Totally worth $30. Now i just need a 1.5 liter electric kettle.
