I've got an instapot btw

canned tuna/sardines
on-sale meat
aldi
why is this thread here every day
forgot peanuts (or peanut butter, whichever happens to be cheaper at the time)
Why is it that no one ever names the real budget foods? Rice, beans, and oats are okay, but you need more than that. do what your ancestors have done for centuries anon.
Cabbage, carrots, potatoes, onions and most importantly GARLIC.
The Egyptians literally lived off of garlic. The stuff is delicious and nutritious as hell.
Also dont fall for the rice meme. Buy flour, learn to use flour. What do you really want to eat tonight? Rice, or a roasted garlic baguette?
As a gift to my daughter, I got her a subscription to one of those box schemes.
It works like this: you pay, they deliver a box of food every two weeks.
The reason I did this is that I'm a single dad (wife died) with a vegan 17 year old daughter.
And I thought it would be nice for her to get loads of fresh veg delivered.
I eat meat, fish, dairy - everything.
The boxes were great. We've had 3 since New Year. Loads of nice fresh veg with recipe suggestions.
But.
The packaging is so much that I had to take cardboard boxes, bags etc to the disposal myself. In my car.
The cost of these admittedly fresh and tasty vegetables is what you'd pay for at a top restaurant.
They buy cheap and sell at ludicrous profit.
Personally, it took away money and choice for me and my daughter.
I'd much prefer to give her £10 and say "go and get what you want for this week" from the local farmers' market.
The farmers tell you about their produce. It's grown locally. Minimal packaging.
I can buy top quality meat. My daughter can buy great, seasonal, locally grown fruit and veg.
tl;dr don't buy into these food box delivery schemes. pic not related
Where do you live that your farmer's markets are cheaper than grocery stores?

Up a mountain in Northern England.
Very remote.
I can't find the subscribe button
Does anyone know if there is a place where I can order individual components of Hamburger helper? The Cheesy Enchilada has a topping mix that is one of my favorite flavours, and I want to put it on other things without having to buy entire boxes of it
General Mills does not sell individual components of their products separately. Maybe you could contact the company and ask if you can special order something, but you might be out of luck.

fuck, I love that topping so much, it's like having the bastard child of god and an elderly mexican woman jizz all over your food and you eat it and enjoy it like the slut you are
Thats how fucking good it is

Hello /ck/,
what's a good side dish for this?
Baked potatoes
Fried potatoes and creamed spinach.
green beans, asparagus, caesar salad, potatoes, onions/mushrooms
Just ate red curry and noticed this leaf gave it a distinctive flavor. Can someone pls ID it? Its about three fingers wide.

kaffir lime leaf

Yep. Also called "Makrut". It's ubiquitous in Thai and other southeast asian cooking.

Yesterday before work (swing shift) I ordered an xxl grilled 'stuft' burrito with chicken from taco bell with the app (used to order with the app to get free dorito tacos) since there was a 25% discount offer code. The total price was like $3.75 and I couldn't pass that up, plus they have a rewards program now so I got a free slushie coupon.
The burrito was awesome and hit the spot on my drive to work, but about 6 hours later, I started farting like a monster. I seriously thought I was going to shit my pants and I work in a cleanroom environment, so I had to find excuses to leave my instrumentation and go into other areas of the labs in order to fart in my low particle jumpsuit + frock + labcoat + respirator setup.
At 9 hours, my farts were starting to produce liquid output and I did a clench and run to degown and get to a bathroom under the guise of grabbing a "new lab notebook." I think my coworkers bought it, but I don't know if they smelled any of my excretions. Nobody said anything. I smelled every single one.
I'm still farting over 15 hours later and I even drank some booze and took a huge, fairly loose shit. I am considering getting another one this afternoon with steak, but I am afraid that the same gastronomical atrocities will befall me. Is there any way to avoid it? Usually taco bell doesn't give me any problems (I usually get the 2 chalupa + crunch taco combo), but I liked that big crunchy burrito and I want another one.
Plus, so cheap...

Anon please stop, you're damaging yourself.
>>7518154
Tastes so good tho
And it's cheaper than an eggamuffin
Theres plenty of other foods that taste good, are cheap, and wont demolish your insides. Dont be stupid.
Would you /ck/?
That's a weird combination but still looks tasty.
>>7517886
Do I look like the type of person to eat normal shit?
You'll end up with mashed rice after cutting the chicken though.
Cereal thread?
Sustain is the most underrated cereal out there.
Taste - A
Crunchiness when left too long in milk - B+
Look - A+
Price - S++ this shit is like 3 dollars a fucking box compared to 11 bucks for fucking CORNFLAKES
Plus it gets a 4 star health rating (out of 5)
You cant beat this shit
Had to look this up because I've never heard of it. Apparently you're an Australiafag?
>>7517764
yeah. if you ever here fucking try it
Agree, Sustain is the shit. I've been eating it since I was like 7.
Redpill me on bologna
Redpill me on what huge faggot you are.
>>7517687
But seriously.....
It's just a processed luncheon meat made from either a pork/chicken mix OR all beef parts. It tastes perfectly palatable, but the texture is much like an overly processed, thinly sliced sausage. It's pretty good when fried in a skillet and put on a sandwich or on a homemade version of an mcmuffin.
Why are the tacos from jack in the box so disgustingly good? I don't give a damn about that fake meat inside when they're tasty and cheap as fuck. It's even better when you dip the shit inside of their ranch sauce.
>>7517603
I made an almost identical thread yesterday. Those things are abominations but I love it. Their extra good if you add two sauce packets per taco and eat it drunk.

>Their extra good if you add two sauce packets per taco and eat it drunk.
Fuck, that actually sounds like a good idea.
>>7517603
Because some food engineer somewhere gets paid six figures to design cheap, delicious shit that people will pay for. Not that hard to figure out desu.
Thoughts?
I grew up thinking only rich people ate there and that it was the fanciest restaurant on earth.

Bloomin onion is noice

I was that way with Red Lobster.
What do you think of this pizza, /ck/?
SAGE GOES IN ALL FIELDS YOU FUCKER HOLY FUCKING SHIT
who the fuck puts nutty butter on bread
Needs anchovies and some pasta on the side.
Do you actually eat three square meals a day, /ck/?
Do you actually watch a children's cartoon?
For breakfast, and lunch most days, I usually just have a few dank memes. I try to cook an actual meal for dinner though usually. But even then sometimes I can't be asked to do anything but eat bacon with nutella.

Accurate?
>Left side: consoles (useless) and a ricer PC
>Right side: shitty restaurants
Not sure what this image is trying to express.
I'm turning 31 next month and still enjoy the occasional video game, but I haven't been to any of those "restaurants" in probably over a decade.
