Food Bank Time

My subway was generous, and wrapped up a piece of their food safety glove with my sandwich. They wouldn't refund me, so I decided to be generous as well, and not ever go back to any locations.

It primarily requires planning your meals ahead. If you don't mind left overs it's even easier. If you eat meat, properly portioning it and freezing the excess simplifies it. Planning multiple meals a week that use the same or similar ingredients saves a bunch and prevents waste.

it's 3.50 for a small where you are? holy cow, it's roughly like $1 or $2 here for a normal tall glass. The only place that's really up there in price for soft drinks are fast food establishments like McD which have around 3$ for a large.

If you run out of people to judge, remember: you can always judge the destitute!

I can afford it but refuse to use those services. They inflate the menu prices, add fees. I'm ok with tipping but not the rest of that.

Same!

I grew up poor and had to stretch every dollar. I'm a highly paid engineer now and I still look at a $10 delivery fee with disgust.

And do people not realize that on Doordash, they charge $1-3 more per item? So your $12 pho bowl is $15 on Doordash.

Price discrimination ,how they treat their contractors, and contractors eating your food, fuck that noise.

I know how to cook, but it's hard with 2 kids, and we both work A LOT all week. Weekends we are almost always busy as well, so meal prep and cooking most days is hard. I try to do simple stuff, but it's hard, and I know I can't be the only one. Plus, I consider this guy lucky since let me check my bank account right now, and oh, it's currently negative $300 until next friday... life is super hard these days, do what you can...

Sorry for the confusion, I was referring to restaurants with table service, where you buy the 1 size of soda and it comes in a glass. The small part was my personal judgement. But yeah, Seattle's expensive.

You don't keep flour, yeast, olive oil, canned tomatoes, cheese and toppings?

Oh my god you made me remember the operation soda steal heist

[r4venw@sh.itjust.works]

My school taught cooking but only 5 students per year could take it because of limited equipment. Suffice it to say, I was not taught cooking

Scrambled eggs are easy enough to make

[kalysta@lemm.ee]

The lack of toppings they put on those things made them worth far less than $5. 2 slices of meat and cheese and a bunch of lettuce? I can make a better sub for cheaper than that with stuff from the grocery store.

When I’m drunk, I ain’t got time to cook! That’s for sober-me!

we had a room dedicated for cooking with stoves and stuff, the class also taught how to sew and stuff

it was an elective though
