Yeah.
Well, "well-stocked" is kinda subjective, but yes, it's a valid point. I'm sort of talking about boiling pasta / making rice and you van either have some simple protein like tuna or fishsticks or meatballs with it, or you can take 20 minutes (and you need 10 anyway for the pasta to cook) to make some basic dish to go with it.
Mince, onions, garlic, stock/sauce of your choice. Doesn't need to be fancy.
Add a few cucumbers/tomatoes to the plate and you've made a decently healthy meal in 10/20min.
But like yeah sure I understand the points I'm just, uh, accustomed to different things. Different isn't wrong, it's just different. (IDIC)
Doesn't going to McD cost quite a lot compared to the amount of nutrition you get? Although they still make it up on calories with so much fat and sugar. And doesn't it also take a bit of time? Or are the drive throughs really that fast and you save time by eating in the car on the way back home? Your traffic and commute times are sort of hard to grasp. I understand, but... don't really feel it.
Ugh, I just made myself kebab and fries and haven't had McD for ages because I can't really anymore (celiac). I'd love a double QP with cheese and a large strawberry (or pear if available) milkshake.
The longest part of making this was waiting 15 min for the fries to cook in the airfryer.
Fries in the airfryer, kebab from the freezer, toss it on a pan with some onions and jalapenos. That, fries, tomatoes and a buttload of cucumber mayo and garlic mayo. (But also a bit of this sort of aioli I make, olive oil, habanero loads of garlic cloves and one fresh jalapeno and blend with a machine. To me It's to kebab what wasabi is to sushi)
