Did you grow up in an ingredient household?
That guy looks like a functional adult. Is he one of those zoomers using "school" as an excuse to not work?
>Are those ingredients available to me for free? AAAAAH I'M GOING INSANEIf you can't look at a set of ingredients and figure out how to make a meal of it you're a failure.
>>21584263i think he just wants there to already be food in the fridge.
>>21584241notice how he's not fat
>>21584267well hes not eating...
>>21584241I had access to stuff that was microwaveable yes. Still do, shit is in the freezer. But I also have raw ingredients. And the mfer has eggs - just crack a few and scramble them bitches. Fast and easy meal. Throw in some chopped shit from the center - tomatos and peppers, boom done. Toast some bread to go with it, breakfast for dinner. But I do feel him - no fucking meats anywhere. That means they are either frozen, or don't exist. That sucks dicks. Slapping together a sandwich is easy if you have cold cuts lying around.
>>21584264Did he ask for it? Why didn't he make food the day before if he wanted leftovers? Looks like a grown ass man, not a 9 year old.
>>21584271I will explain it like you're retarded. The video is basically like a skit. He's pretending hes a 9 year old that just came home from school and is hungry opening the fridge hoping there will be something to eat inside but gets disappointed because there are only ingredients in the fridge.
>>21584281aren't skits supposed to be funny? I'm guessing that you lack personality
>>21584285This one is just supposed to be relatable
>>21584241Yes, my mom divorced my dad when I was 11 and then went back to college for another PhD as well, so that's why I learned to cook. On the plus side, it does mean I can make basically whatever I want from scratch now (although I still hate doing dishes).
>>21584241There's no such thing as "an ingredient household". Just because some zoomer writes it on a vertical video doesn't mean it exists.Fucking idiots, you'll just repost and repeat anything you see and try to make it a thing. I bet no one else is using this term.
>>21584241Why cant he just do this?
>>21584290I really gotta know what your mom's phds are in anon.
>>21584293It’s pretty self-explanatory
>>21584241>ingredient householdgen alpha is cooked
>>21584306unemployability and unemployability
>>21584293Thank youLike, isn't this so called "ingredient household" just a normal household? Where you take ingredients and cook a meal like a normal fucking person? What's the alternative supposed to be? A household where you order fast food or buy ready made slop all the time?Betcha this term is Jewish propaganda
>>21584261He's probably juggling whatever job he has with the pipe dream of becoming the hot new social media influencer and making it big. Boomers play the lottery for the same reasons.
>>21584368>What's the alternative supposed to be?A household that has the same ingredients but also something ready and prepared or close to prepared so that if you get home tired you can just eat that instead of needing to take 30 minutes to an hour to cook if you're feeling like shit right at that moment. It's not just either 100% fresh fruit and ingredients or 100% ultraprocessed megaslop with no in between. You can have shit like frozen chicken nuggets(like actual small pieces of frozen chicken meat) or something like hummus that's already prepped that you can eat with veggies you slice yourself or with some pre-sliced veg that's packaged, or greek yogurt you can eat with granola. There's plenty of shit that you can buy and eat that you can feel decent about and then also have raw ingredients for actual planned meals.Are you that dumb that you really needed that spelled out for you?
>>21584288Sorry I can't relate to being a manchild
>>21584386Just cook enough that you have enough leftovers to have something quick? Are you fucking retarded?
>>21584288>relatableWhen most of the country is overweight? The individuals who find this and almond parents annoying/overbearing in the past should be happy their parents didn't allow unlimited slop whenever they wanted. They're in much better shape than their peers.
I too fill my fridge with ingredients that I periodically replace as it rots while eating out every day and night.Anything else would have guests and family think you're eating slop every day. Oh and posing on social media with a fridge only containing condiments and long shelf life products makes you look like a loser.
>>21584566Sometimes people don't want to eat leftovers again, did you not even think of that possibility you typed that stupid reply? You're legitimately braindead if you don't see the value of convenience in having a few ready-to-go options for when you don't want to cook and don't want to eat leftovers(or you're out). Some things are just very tasty while also still being things that are much easier to buy than to make, like hummus or greek yogurt, and you might prefer those over what you would cook for the evening or eat for leftovers. Maybe nothing that you could ever buy in the grocery store pre-made or as a complete product has ever appealed to you, but you're in the minority there.I doubt you even disagree with me, you probably just got pissy that I called that anon dumb for not being able to conceive of any world between 100% totally healthy and 100% processed garbage.
>>21584581Meanwhile I just post my actual fridge and actually use all the fresh produce up before it goes bad
>>21584271I was cooking independently by 6 years old. There was adult supervision, but I was doing shit myself without physical help. >>21584241Yes but there were leftovers, eggs, cheeses and fruit all the time. There was always something to eat as-is or that could be cooked quickly.I eat far more junk as an adult than I ever did as a kid.
>>21584588What if I don't feel like making dinner from anything in the fridge anymore? It's not that fresh after a few days. I can't eat similar meals more than once in a row. Leftovers are ick as well.
>>21584241no leftovies?
>can't use computers>can't write anything since they use AI all the time>can't cookWhat can zoomers actually do? Play Fortnite?
>>21584263>>21584271Okay there Timmy Tism
>>21584281>there are only ingredients in the fridge.ingredients are food, retard. there are like 20 bell peppers in there. eat a bell pepper.
>>21584588>dairy milk
>>21584702>animal meat
>>21584241>shoes>in the fucking kitchen>tracking even one single speck of dirt that doesn't come off on the doormat into a food preparation area>everDo Americans REALLY?
>>21584241>POV: You're a retarded brain dead child from a gay generation who miss used the term "POV" all the time for your faggy little videos.
>>21584724>miss usedwho is that
>>21584713sadly, yes, many of us do
>>21584702That's just a pic of you after you drink it because your skin is brown
>>21584633I hate to use this extremely overused phrase but this is legitimately a case where it is apt to do so: skill issue. We've currently got about 4lbs of tomatoes in the fridge. Using them all, I can make• a marinara for pasta one night • tomato bisque with provolone grilled cheese and I'll use this neat trick the missus taught me to make it smokey• chips and salsa• chili• scrambled eggs and tomato fry and• tomato salad as part of a salad plate mealAnd each thing is enough for two adults and a newly 8-year old kid. That's 18 servings of tomato through six different dishes. I say this a lot here, but my refrigerator must put food into cryostasis cuz our produce lasts a lot longer than you people imply yours does and we actually get to eat it all.
>>21584241yeah, a piece of microwaved cheese scraped off with a work was my daily driver
>>21584772Do you have short clips of these recipes? It's annoying to follow written stuff. Preferably with amounts said out loud too.
>>21584732Courtney Love
the best and easiest "ingredient household" is microwave a small russet potato until the skin is tough and the insides are too hotslice of whatever cheese you like, i prefer colby jack, immediately after splitting it in half, the steam will help the cheese melt without more microwaving. also salt and pepper
>>21584767that skin is yellow, stupid
>>21584241Yeah, I did.And while making something isn't hard, it generally wasn't an option, as my mother would buy food only for it to be of limits.Items like fruit, nuts, peanut butter, deli meats, etc. were typically reserved ("nobody touch those peaches"), and other things weren't specifically noted but you'd find out were off limits all the same ("who said you could use my flour?" or "i was saving that soup"). Actually preparing anything yourself felt like a minefield, so we generally didn't bother.It was especially frustrating to see half of it get thrown out at the end of the week, because she obviously couldn't use it all herself before it went off.Looking back, it was probably just a minor inconvenience, but you know how kids react to those.
>>21584784Apologies for the delayed reply. We just got in from services. Didn't stick around after because there's a break in the storm and I don't like driving in heavy rain like I did on the way there. Thanks for reading my blog. Anyway, while I don't have short clips, the tomato bisque (any bisque, really) is by far the easiest thing on that list. Takes about 15 minutes from raw ingredients to cooked soup. For the amount i plan to make that's• tomato and onion, 300g/⅔lb each• instant rice, 21g/¾oz/ (1 heaped tablespoon, I think)• optional, but strongly recommended: tomato juice, 450ml/2cups• strong vegetable stock or broth, 450ml/2cups (or 900ml if not using juice)>NGL, I use juice, plain water and tomato or vegetable stock cubes• 3-4 knobs of butter or tablespoons of bacon grease; use oil or margarine if you're a faggot IE vegan• sweet parsley, a handful freshly chopped or a strong pinch home-dried and crumbled• grilled cheese sandwiches to eat it withPut everything but the parsley and sandwiches in a pot, set to high heat and leave it there for 12ish minutes. Let it sit a minute or two to completely hydrate the instant rice then pour everything into a blender.Blitz completely smooth then strain to remove unprocessed bits (or don't; nobody cares)Eat with sandwiches. Makes 3 servings. For the tomato and eggs, there's that Chinese dude's YouTube. He does his moreorless exactly how I do it.I guess salsa's pretty easy, too. Just dump tomato, onion, chili and lime juice in a blender or processor and pulse until done. Salt to taste and add a handful of chopped coriander leaves.>>21584850The fuck were the peaches for, then? Still life models? Fuck that bullshit. I'd eat the fuzzy cunts.
>>21584368fridge filled with frozen food and premade snacks is the alternative, which I've actually known someone who lived like that. their mom would rarely cook and they'd live off frozen foods. I knew about the trope cause of movies I've watched growing up. American family in front of a t.v eating frozen dinners but I never knew people actually lived off frozen food like that.
Fridge was mainly ingredients, but we also had large freezer with stuff like frozen pizza, lasagna and lot of other food.But my mom would cook lunch and dinner daily anyways. Decent cook, had a bunch of relatively simple recipes, she never let us down.
>>21584290>Went back to college for a PhD>Divorces her husband and abandoned her childI reckon she took quite a few PhDs while she was there
>>21584582people that say they don't eat leftovers legitimately need to be executed
>>21584990Oh, and for the smokey trick: heat up a piece of /natural/ coal (not briquettes) directly on the flame of the hob until glowing and grey with ash. You will have to turn it over a few times. Using metal tongs, careful place the fiery twat in a metal bowl you placed into the middle of the cooked bisque (blended or not doesn't matter; you can blitz it after smoking or before). Drizzle a few spoons of lard, oil or clarified butter directly on the coal and quickly lid the pot. Let it smoke for 3-5 minutes before removing the metal bowl and coal. Do not submerge the bowl. Do not submerge the coal. Do not do not do not use anything but natural wood-based food-grade coal. Not hookah coal. Not instant light coal briquettes. Natural. Chunk. Wood. Coal.
>>21584772>scrambled eggs and tomatoHaven't had this combo in decades because the tomato comes out way hotter (or at least stays hotter longer) than the eggs and I got sick of burning my mouth.
>>21584990>The fuck were the peaches for, then? They were hers.Guess I should've specified, but when she "reserved" something I meant she claimed it for herself. Commodities like fresh fruit etc. were usually impulse buys on weekly grocery runs that she'd eat one or two of, and then hoard the rest just in case.
>>21584301This little guy cooks better than 95% of /ck/
>>21584285what would you feel like if you didn't eat breakfast?
>>21585070Poorly. How would you feel if you were actually male?
>>21585036No he fucking does not. Watch.>crack egg into oiled heated pan>hint of a shell ends up in panNevermind I kneel.
>>21584702As opposed to non-dairy milk?
>>21584582Why are you focusing so much on hummus and yogurt? Those are ingredients too.You're a dumb faggot fishing for a gotcha with arbitrary definitions you make up as you go in order to be right, plus you're making an awful lot of assumptions for such a tiny brain as yours.Fucking faggot.
>>21584241Yeah, or as my family called it, "A normal household."
>>21584368you’re being intentionally obtuse. an “ingredients household” has little to no immediately ready to eat food and snacks. sometimes, you just want some chips, a simple sandwich of just bread, cold cuts, and cheese, or even something that you just throw in the oven/microwave, rather than having to put in the effort to prep and cook something in a more involved way
urgh there's nothing worse than ingredients. disgusting.
>>21584241yes but both parents were heavy drinkers so i would just grab three cans of beer or a bottle of wine and head upstairs to do homework
>>21584566Then you would no longer be an ingredient household.
>>21584241I don't get it Just eat some fruits or bread and cheese or throw some eggs in a pan with whatever
>>21584293I knew a family like this. Both parents had a lot of money and the kids were under very strict rules. They had no ready to make things. No Mac and cheese, no microwave meals, no cans of soup and certainly no packages of cookies, chips or any soft drinks. You wanted a meal you ate with the family with ingredients. Best they had ready made was cans of green beans.
>>21584386why would you choose to work in a job that leaves you so depleted that you cannot partake in one of life's simple pleasures?
>>21584301>eggs and random veggies fried ricethis has basically been my lunch and dinner for weeks now
>>21585620rent is expensive
>>21585610What about leftovers?
>>21584241yes, my parents enforced no left-overs rule too so anything ready-to-eat we brought home was allowed to stay in the fridge for 48 hours before it had to be eaten or thrown in the trash.
>>21585651You didn't touch them without permission and they usually went to the dad's lunch.
>>21585669Now that you mention it, I never once considered what the fuck my dad ate for lunch day in, day out. He didn't take leftovers. My mum cooked daily or near daily so leftovers of various sorts were always available yet he never took any with him.But then, I don't even know what he did for a living.
>>21584241cracking two eggs in a pan and making an omelette isn't really that much different than opening a plastic box and putting it in the microwave
>>21585213>hummus is an ingredient tooHummus is a final product with an ingredient list and will 95% of the time be eaten as that final product just with things dipped in it and you're being a disingenuous faggot if you pretend otherwise>arbitrary definitionsNo, because I would still call a product an ingredient to a common household if it was something that was a specialty artisan product that you had no way to conceivably make at home in a reasonable manner, like many-years-aged parm or iberico ham. But hummus is fucking easy to make as a product using ingredients that are reasonable to keep in a household that focuses on base ingredients, so fuck you. That's the distinction and it's a fucking obvious one.If you're buying hummus, you're not limiting yourself to purely ingredients in your household because it's very easy to make hummus from actual ingredients. You're choosing to purchase a pre-made product with a clear, easy-to-produce recipe that is ready to eat for convenience in your home, which is the opposite of limiting yourself purely to ingredients that you then cook with yourself.Unless you think it's unreasonable to source the ingredients for or make hummus, in which case I pity you.
>>21584713we don't eat off the floor, jeet.
>>21585208why yes!
>>21584588chud incel zoomer retarded filled with slop liberal jewish propaganda woke brain dead ass fridge
>>2158424140 year old pretending to be a school going teen... baka
>>21585648why would you choose to pay money to live in a place you don't own? it is illogical.
>>21585954if you think that guy's 40 you must be single digits
>>21585761>unsweeteneddisgusting
>>21584335>gen alphaThat guy's clearly in his 40s and making a joke video you autistic freak.
>>21585993NTA but the sweetened one is too sweet. With these plant based beverages it's better to add your own: sugar, zero calorie carcinogens, etc.
>>21585610Must have sucked to get stoned after school at that house but I bet those kids were fit. And if things weren't too crazy they didn't spend all their allowance on junk food when out of sight of mom and dad.
>>21585661What leftovers from outside the house ever lasts two days anyway? Who are these people? lol
>>21585620cooking sucks though. there is no pleasure in taking the chance of food not tasting good and having to eat it anyway because you dont wanna waste it.
>>21586342
>>21584588Mate fucking cover the open tins>>21585761There's a clearly a carton of oat milk in there you blind retard.
i will never forgive my family for not teaching me how to cook
>>21586579I'll never forgive your parents for giving birth to you.
>>21586402Fuck off, pedo.
>>21584241Nope. The complete opposite. there was never any shortage of junk food in my house. But because of my body type, I never got fat. It wasn't until my 20s that I started to develop a big belly (rest of my body was thin though). It kinda sucks because now that I want to put on muscle it takes me longer to look like I lift than it does for a person with naturally thicker limbs.
>>21584301that little fucker just sits and does nothing
>>21586703that's what younger siblings are supposed to do, baka
>>21584241Why am i looking at some guy walk into what I'm assuming is my house and open my fridge, then suddenty I'm inside the fridge, then looking at the fridge?
>>21585966If you ever get to own property, you'll realize that the difference between renting and owning isn't just paying mortgage instead of a monthly rent to a landlord. Nobody that's actually owned and maintained property would ever post what you posted.
>>21586744why would you choose to pay a mortgage instead of buying a house outright?
>>21586787Because you can secure a mortgage at a lower rate than the rate of return on your market investments? Why sink money into principle when you can put it into investments that get better returns, retard?
>>21586790>Why sink money into principle when you can put it into investments that get better returns, retard?because i have a million dollars but only a part time job dumbass
>>21586797Having a lot of money and only a part time job doesn't address my point in any way. The difference between fully owning and mortgaging is just having an escrow account, the rest comes out on its own because mortgage payments are direct deposit. After property taxes and hazard insurance, it's not like you free yourself from needing to pay somebody periodically.You can just say that you don't care that you're making the stupid decision with your money in this case because you don't need to care due to being financially well off. You don't need to pretend that you're making the smart decision.
>>21584241>ingredient householddoes he fucking mean produce?
>>21586803Fuck off to biz
>>21584365>>21584306The first was in unemployability, the second was in scamming depressed idiots and snitching on white men for the government
>>21584261this is probably meant to be a flashback to when he was younger
had vienna bread with rillettes back in primary school, loved it
>>21584724I have to stop myself from going off in every short I see this happen in.
>>21586302I think you just need to figure out how to make do with what's on hand. I remember being at a friend's mom's condo. She was a single mom and very health-conscious. No butter, crackers, bread, even fruit. She had the no oil bags of air-popped microwave popcorn. I added paprika, salt, pepper and a little onion powder and olive oil wile like 8 stoned teenagers looked on. I made all the popcorn in the cupboard.
>>21584301He washed his eggy hand when he went inside to get the peppers, right? He didn't just stick his eggy hand into the peppers and have his brother eat one raw, and then do the same thing himself, correct?
>>21584633Cognitive behavioral therapy would genuinely be very helpful for this sort of issue. It's leftovers, there's nothing wrong with them. You should be able to tolerate some level of repetition in your diet.
>>21586579Just start learning already dumbass. Start with steaks. They're piss easy and if you're posting here, it will probably act as gender affirming care, reassuring the constant fear you live under of not being manly enough.
>>21584241SHOES OFF IN THE KITCHEN
>>21584241Nope. Both parents worked a lot so they gave us money to buy takeout.
>>21584241>wearing shoes in the houseI honestly don't understand how anyone finds this acceptable.
>>21587280Only the rooms are carpeted, roommates have dogs that shit on the bare floor and I don't clean that shit. I don't wear shoes in my room though.
>>21584582>ready to go options>not fucking leftovers, though>pre-made things that require little to no effort>heat up pre-made teddies from a factory, but not pre-made home-cooked foodYou're so smart. Is there any other life advice you have to give us?
>>21584588Pro tip: dont put raw chicken, or any meat, really, above your produce. Or anything elseYour friend, -anon
>>21587280House shoes are cleaner than dirty sweaty socks.
my parents had me in their late 30s so my teenage years was me dodging their food for their 50s dietsif i opened the fridge i'd find shit like plain yogurt, cottage cheese, skim milk, etcif i wanted something carbonated i could only grab a warm can of diet ginger ale from the basementi genuinely lived off of leftovers and what little i knew how to cook, which usually involved bread, eggs, slices of american cheesesometimes there'd be something prepped in there and i'd get yelled at for taking some because "that was for X event (that we didn't tell you about)"or if i was really desperate i'd grab a carrot and the bottle of ranch and get told "the carrots are for the horse"and they wondered why i was always angsty and pissy, i was severely malnourishedthese habits continued on because up until i moved out i worked for restaurants, so lunch at least was always spoken for, since it was free, but i'd grab fast food on the way home and never learned how to properly cook. i'm still on basic stuff
>>21585689>I don't even know what he did for a living.Mafia
>>21587374Well that's awful and a good example of why schools need a proper cooking class.
>>21586302>I bet those kids were fitThey were small skinny kids. Their height was stunted from all the stress and lack of enough calories during their prime growing years. They had no life. It was school, home work, piano practice, bed, repeat.
>>21585954>>21586721I saw a Facebook reel video of you recently in your highschool cafeteria doing this same stupid shit. Some lady came and got you at the end. You acted like a retard and stood on one of the tables and everythingYou gotta be 18 to post here, by the way
>>21586803Anon, hes trying his best. Hes only 15 and thinks hes very smart, stop before you make him cry and start self harming
>>21585507the bread would be in the bread drawer and the fresh cuts in the bag from the butcher shopmaybe you americans aren't compatible with this life style cause you don't even have real bread
>>21587378That was the joke among my friends. Either that or CIA. All I know is it was a government job and that it took him away from home from time to time.
>>21584633>What if I don't feel like making dinner from anything in the fridge anymore?Simply learn to not be like that.
>>21584241Looks like he has just enough there to make some decent Sunday sauce, bonus if he can find sweet and hot pork on sale. Shit will feed you for a week.
>>21586573Oat milk isn't milk, it's not a mammal.It's just oat juice.
>>21584241I grew up in poverty
>>21588304As I've said before, you will regret trying to form an identity here
>>21584241This is just another in a long line of unnecessary weasel words for demonising parents who don't give their kids expensive goyslop that makes them fat and sick all the time.Yes it's normal to have fresh food in your fridge.
>>21584633>I can't eat similar meals more than once in a row. Leftovers are ick as wellmental illness. these aren't normal problems.
