Up untill a week ago Nofrills carried these “three packs” of salmon for $10. Now the same pack contains two for the same $10. I thought it felt light when I bought it yesterday.
This comes to about $0.02 increase per gram, and a $1.10 price increase overall. Or a 11% increase in price overall. Meanwhile inflation is at 6-7%?
… Or, you know, just adapt the recipe. Not simping for shrinkflation here, but it’s pretty dumb to buy more than you need just to exactly match a recipe for queso. Shit ain’t analytical chemistry
Food isn’t as precise as people think. I used to stress over recipes and shit when I first started cooking regularly. Shit just kinda works if you stick roughly to most recipes.
Edit: this is just a general comment, I know some foods require an absolute fuck ton of skill and precision to get right
Baking is where it turns into an exact science.
Cooking is art, baking is science.
I’ve never made it before and I usually follow recipes as they are and everything always comes out really good so I try not to deviate from that.
When I get experimental, it sucks and then I’m wasting food.
I was also intimidated by making queso specifically as I have a hard time making sauces. I do experiment but they come out shitty when I do and they come out shitty when I follow the recipe.
Most other things come out fine if it’s a recipe I already know and can change a bit without having to worry.
I didn’t mean to come off rude before. I’m sorry for that.
I can see this is very important to you and I shouldn’t have made light of it.
Thank you. It did turn out for the best that I had extra condensed milk so I could figure out the best measurement for it.
I’m actually working on something tricky making my own queso. I want to make something that stays liquid but uses real cheese.
Cursed cheese. Never the consistency you need lol.
it’s so hard to find the perfect medium!
Lol, you just wrecked this guy so politely and firmly here. Well done.
Gee thanks.
