I had a couple eggs a few weeks ago, couldn’t afford orange juice though. Today I can’t even afford toilet paper. Don’t ask why I’m not wearing any socks…
Grapefruit, mostly.
Grapefruit reacts badly with or nullifies a loooot of medications :/
A choice of groceries? Mister Moneybags here has so many choices for his groceries he has the luxury of having a preference of some over others. Ladies, if you go home with this guy you get your choice of breakfast the next morning. /s
Naw that’s just part of getting old.
My younger self would be very disappointed at the things I find exciting now.
I recently found an Indian grocery store that stocks those Heinz beans in the teal can that are popular on toast in the UK! …turns out they’re not very good. But I found them!!
“not very good”. I’m actually getting really rather angry about this. In fact I think this might be a hate crime.
Aw fuck. This is my cue to confront my own bias: my palate is Americanized as fuck. Hell, my own mother probably had a corn syrup subsidy to add it to her tit juice before feeding it to me as a baby.
So, take my culinary assessment with a grain of
saltsugar.Haha. Nah, you’re good 😊 . Brits like beans because they’re cheap, easy and available. They’re ok, hardly a culinary experience worth seeking out though :)
Although they are one of your five a day!
My partner is British and we are in the US, so we end up hunting for stuff like this all the time. Luckily a market up the road happens to be owned by a Brit, so we can at least get tea biscuits there.
Younger me might be disappointed in a lot of things, but my fascination with new and interesting foods would not be a disappointment at all! If I told me “We’re really into brie and canning salsa” we’d be delighted!
Seems like fine small talk to me.
Gotta have something to believe in. Might as well be Luxardo cherries.
I mean… if you want to make a proper Old Fashioned…
Mind reader!
Dude, Newman’s Own has a sourdough crust frozen pizza and it’s amazing. It’s now our go-to, “I’m too mentally drained to cook,” food.
Could be her
I’ve literally overheard multiple dinner party conversations about good finds from trader joes
Trader Joe’s is okay for some things. I like their cinnamon rolls and think they are worth the five dollars.
A fellow Trader Joe’s lover definitely transcends the lame smalltalk boundary. I don’t even go but the way my dad recommends food when he meets someone else who goes to Trader Joe’s you would think they had known each other their whole life.
I picked up some Tobasco Scorpion pepper sauce at Kroger. It’s no joke. Where are you going?
Yesss scorpion pepper sauce! 🦂🔥
Actually yes! Fresh basil. I’m making a bruschetta chicken dinner tonight.
I got a basil plant from Walmart a few months ago because it was literally the same price as the dried stuff.
I’ve been putting basil in basically everything haha
Foreign born tomatoes. Figured I better enjoy them while I can.
Oh, man. A few months ago I, a quadragenarian dude, spent like 20 minutes telling a friend about my skin care routine. … when I have the gumption to do it.
Not a recent purchase, but Costco had these halloumi fries recently and they were bomb. I’m sad to see that I can’t buy them right now.
How do you use halloumi during your routine?
On rough days I get high and eat too many of them. Helps fight wrinkles caused by furrowed brows.
I personally don’t care much for sponsored foods but I acquired some post Malone oreos that are pretty good. They’re super sweet though so 1 pack lasts like a month.
Zucchini is pretty alright.
And cucumbers… eggplants… squash… pineapple… 😊
