/ck/ I need your help.
It's Lent so I decided to give up white bread and am currently in a running argument with my friends about the nature of wafers. I want to eat a Kitkat Chunky but my friends think the wafer in the Kitkat counts as white bread, like wafers at communion.
Am I letting my lust for Kitkat get in the way of my better judgement?
Maybe you should give up chocolate as well.
Also, who /GivingUpCoffee/ here?
That is a weak-ass thing to give up for lent.
Go ahead and eat that brick of sugar, you know full well why you didn't pick anything substantial.
Yes, the wafers are made using refined flour
Eat a butterfinger

Regular crisps are just too greasy, I know kettles aren't much/at all better but they're my preferred chip when I reach for a fried potatoes product

these are the greatest chips in the world. all others can fuck off
>>7364622
Olive oil and herbs I suppose.
Korean Barbeque might be good.
I'm not that into really spicy things.
Is cereal a soup?

No, but your brain is.

Is beef barley a cereal?
>>7364288
beef barley is shit so no
Most underrated sauces/toppings?
My vote goes for oyster sauce. Excellent on burgers, plain white rice, and anywhere your pleb ass would use soy sauce instead. Too strong for dipping, but a thin layer on almost everything savory will blackjack you in a dark Detroit alleyway and smuggle you across interstate lines until you hit Flavortown USA
Also an essential ingredient for recreating Chinese take out.

This shit is so much better then the added sugar meme sauce.

What the fuck does that taste like?
I'm not vegetarian or vegan, but I could understand how someone could be vegetarian for moral reasons. Even I've had doubts about eating meat while stoned. (DUDE WEED)
But why veganism? What's wrong with eating eggs and milk? How do you even get protein if you don't?
Also why not just eat fish? I mean look at these weirdos. With their weirdo eyes and breathing through gills and shit, they're like water aliens lel
But seriously, if you're a vegan/vegetarian, why?
>what's wrong with eating eggs and milk
i'm not vegan but how can you not get this? chickens kept in huge groups and tiny cages for eggs, cows kept constantly pregnant and in terrible conditions being fed total garbage for milk
pretty obvious
>>7363765
I think you're kinda missing the points. What exactly are your morals?
For instance, I tend to avoid animal products because I eat a ridiculous amount of them and get fat and broke. I suppose this is a moral stance.
>>7363817
This, basically.
I'm an ex-vegan.
They get slaughtered anyway after their milk production declines and I'm sure it's the same for chickens and eggs. The animal food industries are linked.
Do you have a preferred flavor that you scoop more of when you have neapolitan ice cream?
Strawberry and vanilla. The chocolate goes straight into the trash.
Usually it's swirled to prevent that.

Cookbook thread? Anything you've found particularly interesting that isn't just recipes slapped on a page with cutesy words? Informative works that really helped you improve?
Just got these and I'm really excited.

Older cookbooks really do the trick. I also kind of prefer those to ones with photos. They're literally food porn to market them better. Joy of Cooking is really great as well as The Silver Spoon and Julia Child's books on French cooking. You know you find a good book when you find drawings of techniques.
Cookbooks are really just a reference. You can aimlessly follow recipes from any cookbook and not learn anything. It mainly depends on you to keep track of spices, techniques and ingredients to become...

This one has a lot of good practical advice on techniques, equipment, selecting ingredients, etc. and a bunch of good recipes. I also like how the recipes include a lot of explanation of why they do things certain ways, especially since these recipes (like anything from Cook's Illustrated/ATK) are generally not quick/easy.
>>7362440
Find culinary institute texts. They usually show up in used bookstores in the cookbook section.
What's the best way to punish a restaurant if you didn't enjoy the food?
Most of the times I just leave without paying.
If that's not an option (ie. too many waitresses) I steal small stuff like the salt/pepper shakers and pay the bill without leaving a tip.
Now if I'm really angry I leave a mess in the bathroom (piss on the sink, clog the toilet with toilet paper, leave the shit stained paper sticking on the wall, etc).
What about you?
>>7362291
I have this strong burning feeling that you're just a huge cunt.
Don't go back again.
That's all.
don't you wear a suede fedora by any accident?

Eggs + Bacon, and I'm not even joking.
I could eat strawberries like they're candy.

So in the spirit of creating some original content I've decided to make a /ck/ inspired dish.
Basically what I will do is take recommendations for ingredients in this thread and make a dish based on what you guys recommend.
/mu/ has made an album before so why can't we make our own meal?
So post some stuff and I'll go to the grocery store and buy them and put them together according to what you tell me.
Only rules are no overly expensive stuff like lobster or anything. Also it has to be a food item so no semen or shit or anything like that.

Hey Drin/ck/ers out there.
How much do you typically drink in a day, a week, a month?
Would you classify yourself as an alcoholic?
It's so hard to navigate my way through all these different guidelines and measurements to learn how to drink at a non risky level. I start worrying that I might be drinking too much, and to compound that anxiety I have ocd so I start obsessing about it to the point where it's like a panic attack and it makes me want to drink.
If you go over the government guidelines and say have 8 full shots of liquor a day,...

I drink daily. A handle of Canadian Club lasts ,e 3-5 days, but usually 4 on the dot. I'd consider myself an alcoholic, because I need it to get a good nights sleep. However, it doesn't really effect my personal or professional life in any way, shape, or form. I do have a dependence on alcohol, but I'm able to go a couple days without drinking, when necessary, without having any major withdrawal symptoms. Unlike many alcoholics, I'm able to cut myself off, despite wanting more.
Love alcohol, only drink on the weekends
>>7331372
My problem is my anxiety, I feel like I could easily go without it and there are days I honestly don't really feel like drinking and then my anxiety will kick in and it seems to be the only thing that will calm me down.
I wish I could get rid of my anxiety...

dude you're so entitled and probably underage, i'm super mad, i make my own money and am grateful for what i get etc.

Is your mom a girl? Usually females have trouble following directions, they think being told what to do is the patriarchy at work. It's why they think they know better than recipes, since they're directions.
