Do you even cook Null? You said how better cooks Europeans are and how amazing grocery stores are everywhere but I seem to only recall you talking about food you've bought from restaurants during your streams. You've talked about pizza and kebabs and Serbian cheese stuffed burgers but I don't remember you talking about food you've made at home.

Jack could cook circles around you couldn't he? I bet you would thank your lucky stars to get some of his aunts famous dip.
 
Had to run across town so I did some errands on my way back home. Stopped at the fish market and got some lemon-pepper smoked salmon, then I stopped at Fresh Thyme (the midwest's answer to Whole Foods) and bought a block of gouda and some grass-fed ground beef, both on sale. I even checked the bread section and imagine my SHOCK when I found fresh baked loaves with only 4 or 5 ingredients listed on the packaging! Of course if I want a really good loaf I can go to one of three or four local bakeries, but I digress. I then stopped at my other go-to supermarket (won't name as its more area-specific) because Fresh Thyme doesn't have the bacon I like. The bacon is, of course, from a family owned state-specific meat producer and is the best around. All of these locations are within a 15 minute drive from my home.

Now I'm frying up some thick cut strips of bacon to put on some sandwiches from the local mom-and-pop sandwich shop right down the road. Feels good to be an American sometimes, boys.
 
You think that tiny piece of Gouda for $10 in your picture weighs 500g or what? Come on now, food is so much more expensive in the US. That's a really dumb thing to get this butthurt about.
"Americans can't have good food"

*shows we can*

"Okay, but Americans can't have good food away from cities and coasts"

*shows we can*

"Okay, but Americans can't have good food away from the cities and coasts that is also dirt cheap"

Okay well guys we've made it to the end of the goal post's tracks. Yes IMPORTED cheese is in fact more expensive in America. Congrats you have successfully coped your way to a victory.

P.S. Sales tax doesn't apply to food in the US. This isn't another jab, just clearing that up for the record.

Then the money saved can go to fancy shit, like this Colatura di Alici di Cetara anchovy extract. This cost something like $20 for a 3 ounce bottle but is so potent a few drops seal the deal, so per meal, it's nothing.
That stuff is spectacular and well worth the money. Probably the closest thing we have to the ancient Roman garum as well.
 
In the heartland -- the so-called fly-over states -- where the grains are grown and the cows are raised, we have farm-fresh dairy, eggs, meat and produce much of the year and local bakeries that operate daily. People sell sweet corn and free range eggs in unmanned wicker baskets with cash drop boxes at the end of their driveways on honor. I can pet the cow before I eat it if I want to, or hunt the deer myself.

Sorry Josh but you are a retarded New Yorker and/or Florida Man, you have no idea what most of America by square mile is really like.

One thing Europeans get regularly and disproportionately mad at America for is that we don't include tax in prices on the shelf. I then had to explain to them that in America, where we have freedom, each state and even municipality is allowed to have their own sales tax. I'm sorry we all don't have a mandated 20% sales tax across the board thus forcing you to do math.

I was just shocked how expensive it is, calm down. I would kms if I had to pay that much for such a tiny piece of cheese.

Every state they're in is on the coast...
The state maybe but Rochester NY is nowhere near "the coast". WNY and NYC might as well be on separate planets. Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Publix, Fresh Market etc are also not limited to "the coasts" and while they're not quite Wegmans they still have all the things you're claiming the US doesn't have.
 
There's a local supermarket by me that has a vending machine which will bake you a fresh loaf of bread. There's also a wall at another one that lists every local maker of the cheeses they sell. It's not difficult to find.

Yeah I’m not going to directly reply to that many people. It’s been an established topic on this thread over the course of 70+ pages and brought up multiple times. If you think it’s OT I’m sure you can beg Null for a broom and make this thread fit your sensibilities.
You're "clearly" talking out of your ass, made obvious by this insinuation that nobody keeps dairy or beef cattle outside of Texas.
How am I talking out my ass about my anecdotal expierences? It’s just something I noticed and have no better explanation for. I made no such insinuation about beef or anything of the sort outside of Texas. If you seriously think that food quality from stores is better in Fairbanks Alaska than it is in Amish country Pennsylavania you are actually retarded. Keep your straw man arguments to your Reddit posts.
bro I have asked friends to go scout grocery markets to find basic shit and i'm shocked wholefoods is basically just walmart now, they used to have organic real cheese and variety. even in some big cities it's fucked.
It took a bit of a hit after the Amazon takeover but I think it varies store to store.
I remember the Whole Foods in Florida had one of the big tubs of cheese with little wheels cut to size and wrapped in cellophane tape but my nigga did not see any such thing
I used to live near one that had an oyster bar, an actual bar with local beer and wines, and a full on (good) restaurant. Closed during Covid and never reopened which really pissed me off. They do still have some good cheeses if they get it locally.

It would be fucking hilarious if dick Masterson or Rekeita found this thread and used it as proof of the Forum turning against Null.
dude if null isnt trolling then i think rekieta might be right about him being an autist that refuses to be wrong.

i really hate to say that….
