So my local grocery store just started carrying nothing but Boar's Head products in their deli. All the meats, all the cheeses that I used to get are now gone and replaced with it. With it, the prices on everything have gone up as well. Today they had a sampling table and a sales rep there sampling a majority of the products and explaining the jump in cost being due to the "quality of the product" giving a whole marketing jargon thing about no GMO and gluten free and all that.
Just wondering what everyone thinks. I tried some of the stuff, and it did all seem good. But damn the price jump just seems outrageous
I've always thought they were a step up from the cheaper stuff in the deli.
Boar's Head products are pretty good. But their business practices are really fucked up. I'll never say no to them, but I try to avoid establishments owned by Boar's Head (and they DO own you) when I can.

Care to expand on that?
What's your guys general opinion on American cheese?
it's good
>>7765639
Every once in awhile, I crave the flavor of a grilled cheese made with American. But I buy the American cheese from the deli, not that Kraft bullshit.

Literally the best thread I've ever seen in the past 3 months. Literally.

That's a nice 'go style 'late bar. Or something.

I guess if you hate flavor that badly, sure, you could use the dried shit.
>>7767655
All the flavor, none of the fumes. Stay mad.

some people don't have time to go to flavortown for every meal.
What made France so much more influential back a few hundred years ago when it came to "high cuisine" as opposed to other European countries? Most really really rich people eat things of french origin from like 200 years ago. Why?

Experts at gluttony and feasting.
It's similar to Italians with music and Mediaeval Muzzies and ancient Greeks with maths: they were the first to codify it extensively.
That's it, really.
See, Spain invented musical notation, but Italy was the first to use that to codify music and give names to the various aspects of music. This is why we can talk about music being played pianissimo, why we know what the arpeggio is and why people sing a cappella.
Similarly, despite not being the first to come up with counting or even mathematics, ancient Greece influenced maths by writing down much of...

Why are 'biscuits' so popular in America? Aren't they just scones?
>>7764195
No
they are flakier and softer
>>7764200
they look like they would taste like babby rusks.
>>7764195
a scone is a biscuit that you fucked up and overcooked so that its super dry and crumbly

Was your mommy a good cook?
>"I don't eat any of that foreign muck"
>"adding herbs and spices just ruins the food"
What do you think?
No. She could bake pretty well, but everything else was gross. Mushy boiled or microwaved vegetables, all the red meat she has cooked in her life has been beyond well done. She doesn't even defrost frozen meat before she cooks it, just pulls it out of the freezer and cooks it straight away.
She has also smoked for the past 40 years, so everything probably tastes like ash to her anyway.
That's why I had to learn to cook at a very young age if I didn't want to eat garbage.

Why haven't you picked up the greatest soda today?
What'd your favorite?
Millennials and raw-only health nuts need not apply
Because I only drink soda if alcohol is in it. I'm thinking Surge would be good with some Bourbon in it.

I take pride in that actually. Thats like saying you're proud of eating the same meal over and over like an obsessive autist
Has anyone here actually tried the Gordon Ramsay meme method of scrambled eggs?
I'm sorry but these are shit. The ones in the video he does are undercooked, and when I follow the exact same method as he does them, they are way undercooked just like in the video.
Scrambled eggs are supposed to be made in a pan, and as it slowly cooks you bring the cooked parts to the center of the pan with a fork or spatula. Always low heat because eggs are delicate and you don't want to overcook them, but you don't want them RAW. They are supposed to be silky, soft,...

>with a fork
You fucked up!
>>7763261
You can totally use a fork if the spatula isn't available, asshole.
>>7763250
they aren't undercooked at all, you are doing it wrong lmfao. and they are actually pretty fucking good. It takes a lot longer to make it than the video, obviously because it skips while he's stirring etc, you are some kind of clown.
Are you ready for the "microbrew canned coffee" trend?

/ck/ what's wrong with deviled eggs?

Who said they were wrong?

Shitty advertising added in

the taste of eggs and mayonnaise is a gross one, but it's only gross on its own.
Honestly just make eggalad instead, it's the same thing except you can do stuff with it like dip chips or make a sandwich
Let's talk about spice.
What's your threshold?
What's your preference?
I can handle anything up to habaneros. Love putting them into my chili.
I put spiracha on my eggs this morning.
Can I be one of the cool kids?
Chocolate habanero is for me the last point where the heat is enjoyable. After that things get a little too painful.
