>2 dollars a meal
What's your excuse, chuddie?
>>
yeah it’s honestly not as big of a deal unless you’re poor or something. I literally cannot fathom how people can’t afford a house on a 75k a year salary. Cost of living is not that high, just get a second job. Trump is saving our economy and our community, things will level out with time.
>>
>>541524377
These things never include the times it takes to prep the meal (at $?/hr), but most importantly, they never include the time it takes to go from "I don't know how to turn cheap raw ingredients into an actual edible meal" to "I can comfortably cook my own meals when I need to". Yeah, you could learn that, but it takes time and failed meals. I don't have time to trial and error and learn from my mistakes. I need to eat today.

In the city, you have the choice of what grocery store you're gonna go to.
Here where I live, Walmart groceries are more expensive than Kroger. (it used to be the opposite not too long ago)
I'm better off going to Trader Joe's for some basic things too, again that used to not be the case.
I'd imagine having a Costco membership also helps too, but for daily grocery shopping that isn't in bulk you have to get smart.

mealprep is a massive meme
>OH WOW LOOK AT ALL OF OUR SAVINGS WE DO ALL OF OUR COOKING ONCE A WEEK AREN'T WE SMART???
meanwhile literally everyone i know that did mealprepping just starts letting their food sit in the freezer for months on end because they get bored of it while they go back to cooking regularly or eating takeout because they realized that their food doesn't taste remotely as good once it's been through refrigeration and reheating

if you're a neet then cooking for yourself is fine, but if you're working and can't even afford takeout then that's some real soul crushing shit, you slave away for mr shekelberg all day, come home at 4 pm and then you can't even say that you'll just buy some takeout and watch movies or play some games? you have to then go get groceries and start cooking for hours? then it's time for shower and bed again, now that's some literal hell, why are you even working if you can't afford some base luxuries?

im not poor so i order frozen prep meals, go out for 5 dollar colombian frapes and premium pizza. no one gives a shit about u poors

>>541525506
I didn't say that he was wrong, I was just saying that if you're working then cooking for yourself is really soul crushing, like literally what are you even working for if you have to live like a third worlder villager anyways, working a full time job in a first world country supposed to afford you base luxuries, not just put you on the same level as ngubu working at a mine in kenya

Its mostly retards living in Democrat shit hole cities. Go into a ghetto gas station enough and you'll see people treating it like a grocery store all the time. Everything is a ripoff because they know the people paying with WIC dont care if a slim jim costs $4 or its $6.50 for a gal of milk. And they buy bags and bags of crap.
>>
>>541525399
>you have to then go get groceries and start cooking for hours?
You don't grocery shop everyday retard, you stock up when you do go. Also a lot of cooking doesn't take "hours" & most of the time spent is spent waiting for the food to you know... cook. Only lazy retards think cooking is a burden

meal prep is so lame, you have to freeze all that shit because it won't stay good long enough and reheating frozen food always tastes and feels like shit

>>541525918
Fresh is not necessarily better than fresh-frozen. The reason is that fresh frozen is typically frozen very quickly after picking, whereas "fresh" from a grocery can be weeks after picking.
Thus, the nutritional value of fresh frozen can be higher.

i like cooking. i watch marco pierre white videos. i try new recipes. but i still get burned out on cooking. no one tells you when you're younger that you're going to have to plan every meal you eat, every day, for the rest of your life. after you've been to the grocery store 5k times and made 10k meals, you start running out of ideas. you just get fucking burned out on having to plan meals. on the other hand, eating out gets old really fast. any time i eat out for a week i start craving nutrients really bad. like i can feel it in my body. my body is screaming for vegetable juice and a nutrient dense soup. things used to be simpler. food wasn't viewed how we view it now. mom or a wife would make meatloaf and mashed potatoes, and you ate it cause you were hungry. otherwise you didn't have to think about food except for holidays and events.

yeah I don't care about your copes piggie, if you're a slopper then that's fine, just don't act like you're some gigachad for eating frozen slop, that shit is only acceptable in college, if you can't afford fresh meals as an adult then what are you even doing with your life
>>
>>541524901
Yes, but that has nothing to do with the affordability crisis, which is real. You would have to be some kind of gigaboomer kike retard to pretend that inflation and the cost of living have not increased while purchasing power and the value of labour have not decreased
