If ya think going out to eat is bad, try working in a restaurant through the whole pandemic ( been working there like 8 years total), only to be making a couple bucks more an hour than new hires.

Simply not true unless (a) you are hopelessly addicted to HFCS and/or (b) you are buying lovely cheese and bread. I realise this is in fact the case for the majority of America tho. Within 5 minutes of my house I can buy a sourdough loaf straight from the bakery oven, a big hunk of Delice de Bourgogne cheese, and a pat of quince jam to add a little tart sweetness  . That's probably 3 days of fancy-lad lunches that poo poo all over fast food for considerably less than a Big Mac meal. So, Albini is dead-on, for certain values of location and life circumstance which corporate America is seeking to foreclose wherever possibleBrotherJayne posted:Wait, y'all got food trucks that actually drive around and poo poo? Some stay parked outside bars, some drive around (as trucks are known to do), some are ice cream vans

I haaaate washing dishes, so I adapted my cooking to minimize needless extras. Half-liter bowls end up being a surprisingly useful 'one size fits all' thing that's easy to wash and store, constantly used during cooking, and also something you can serve soups and stews in. Even works for stuff like cereals. Also, subjectively speaking, less 'gross' than most regular dishes if they pile up, although ideally you never get to that point.

As organizations attempt to harness the contributions of many stakeholders, students who pursue the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion concentration will not only be well prepared for DEI-focused careers, they will also be prepared to be leaders of change in any organizational role. . . .

It's a demand that isn't going anywhere, just like how barbers took a haircut (  ) during the quarantine, the industry as a whole isn't going anywhere.That said, you're right about cooking at home. And it's never been a better time to learn with all the cooking knowledge available on YouTube, etc, for anyone not already preparing most of their meals at home.

Eat everything with your hands, preferably off a bread bowl or wrap, and there's hardly any dishes to wash!

Failed Imagineer posted:Simply not true unless (a) you are hopelessly addicted to HFCS and/or (b) you are buying lovely cheese and bread. My point is "a mouthful of salt and starch and sugar and fat" will light up your reward centers way more than that and it has nothing to do with how refined your pallet is or how good the bread you can buy is and everything to do with your lizard brain being programmed by millions of years of evolution saying "holy poo poo you have found the best energy source of all, wow!!!" Like put your head in a big fancy science machine that measures objectively how much dopamine your stupid rear end is secreting for each one and I guarantee the big mac will cause it to secrete more. Though I guess you could make the argument that "enjoyment" should encompass more than that, like appreciating a better and more interesting taste, or not feeling vaguely disgusting and a little sick right after you're done eating, which sure I agree with, but then I can't make a pithy post about it, so shut up.

one of the things i started doing during covid and kept up with is meal delivery kits. with Home Fresh for roughly about $50 a box you get 2 nicely portioned dinners which is more then enough for me and my 2 kids. usually you even get leftovers. its alot cheaper then say if i wanted to go to like Applebee's and it scratches the itch of having different meals plus you can skip weeks which i do all the time so i end up getting them 2 or 3 times a months. all the ingredients are right there, portioned for you and you can always customize it with whatever you have around the house. the only thing that annoys me is that it feels wasteful paying for so much individual packaging.

My first goal when I got a house was a big rear end pantry, and a deep freezer. Without those and buying in bulk it would cost a lot more to eat, also I love learning about new foods. It's really hard to be prescriptivist about cooking and eating for reasons like that and time and the value to the individual.

I try to home cook my dinner five nights a week and limit eating out to lunch/weekends. But some of that is the fact that I have time and knowledge. I’m really blessed in that I live in a place where there are a lot of phenomenal restaurants all around me and they make stuff I probably couldn’t at home. If I lived way out in suburban hell where my only options were Applebees and ruby tuesdays and Olive Garden and maybe an anemic Thai place or Mexican place I probably wouldn’t ever eat out

Paladinus posted:I just want to eat a burger once a month. Just make the burger at home then? If you want fast food quality you can buy the buns, but you can also make a large batch of dough and freeze it in bun sized portions (or invite friends over if you're into those). The thing that originally made fast food meaningful was economy of scale (and absolute willingness to compromise on quality). But it sounds like the American system is just hosed over so it's not even worth it any more. Boutique places with good fast food is a newer and better invention, usually with actual passion for the food involved. These places are generally good, but they're absolutely not saving you money and probably not time unless you live literally on top of them.

I can generally get a good grip on what I feel like eating for the weekend, but the farther out I go into the work week, the more likely I am to just look at it and throw a frozen pizza into the oven instead. The other half of the problem is doing anything elaborate during the week leaves me with too much food and some of it gets tossed.

I hate meal prep, and planning that far ahead gives me anxiety because I know I'm going to change my mind/not be motivated later in the week to cook what we planned for. Not doing meal prep though gives my wife anxiety because she needs to know what's happening and having a list for the week gives her control in an otherwise uncaring universe. All this on top of two people with very different tastes.
