I love the juxtaposition of sugar free Coke with sugar added Jack Daniels. Dodging and weaving against diabetes.

I just like the taste of coke zero, ill eat candy/dessert still, save the calories id get out of drinking coke, gotta have some vices or you'll be an uptight bitch

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago (6 children)

Coke zero is worse for your health. Artificial sweeteners have pretty bad health effects, especially the one used in coke.

It is heavily suspected of being able to cause, heart issues, and having the counter intuitive effect to actually make your brain want more sugar, because the complete sugar activation mechanism isn’t triggered properly. It is also slightly suspected to cause cancer, although researchers don’t agree at all on this subject.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Uhm, source??

I love how people just feel like artificial sweeteners must be bad for you. They're okay. Not healthy, but way better than sugar.

Also: Coke can still be kinda unhealthy, other ingredients etc...

You prob believe vaping is worse than cigs too

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago (6 children)

it depends, some vapes are indeed worse than most cigs, i think most can agree with both being bad

It’s the butter that did it for me. That’s fancy butter

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

Shits good though. Got it for free one time and I thought to myself, shit I should always buy this stuff. And never once have I bought it since because I saw the price tags

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 days ago

Move like a butterfly, sting like an insulin jab.

Can't even afford to be an alcoholic to forget about your money problems anymore in this economy

[–] [email protected] 28 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Unironically. Half the appeal of booze has historically been that its cheap.

I kinda wonder how much of the decline of high school/college drinking has to do with sticker shock.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Yep, it's very easy and cheap to produce alcohol, the only reason it's expensive now is due to countries adding high excise taxes and the like to alcoholic drinks

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 days ago

Margins on alcohol sales are fairly high, especially with high rates of industry consolidation over the last decade.

Retail alone collects a 20-30% vig on well standard hard liquor, for instance. Distributors can add another 40%.

The Gray Goose sticker price of $30 for 750mL includes an excise tax of $2.40 So around 8%, by comparison.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

I mean I'm 20, when I have parties with friends (all my age/1-2y younger) we just split the costs. 5€ each max. And we all have a good time (or throw up, because some of my friends aren't very aware of their limits lol)

I work at a grocery store and honestly I didn't even bat an eye, the first thing I thought about was how to bag it.

In case you're wondering if we care about what you're buying the only (non regular) customer that I remember is one Irish guy who would crack jokes about his ex wife on a roadtrip. Don't fully remember but my God he made like 4 zingers in a row and I about cried laughing at like 7:30am

edit: oh and I learned about a new pasta last week, that was cool

[–] [email protected] 62 points 6 days ago (7 children)

Ewwwww is that sugar free coke?

[–] [email protected] 54 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (7 children)

Looks like cherry coke zero.

Coke zero is the best one until you get alcohol involved, then you're fucking up if you're not using full fat coke

Though if the plan is to mix coke with that honey jack maybe the booze is sweet enough already

[–] [email protected] 18 points 6 days ago (5 children)

That stuff is so cloyingly sweet you'd have to mix it with water to approach something drinkable. A true alcoholic would have a handle of dewars white.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I've used it instead of maple syrup on pancakes while camping. I intended it to just end up as a shit joke at my own expense, fucking around for shits and giggles, but it was legitimately sweet enough to work. Which is honestly pretty disgusting.

Coke zero is decent

Diet coke is disgusting

Ditto Pepsi

I think I have a mutation in a taste bud or something, but Sucralose is really a prominent and nasty taste to me in anything it's in. Really frustrating to taste it in otherwise sugary drinks, like some of the Monster flavors.

For reference, I also think cilantro tastes like soap. No clue if that's an indicator or not.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago (2 children)

does drinking things with sucralose make your mouth have an aftertaste like carbonated and sweet vomit? if yes then i think i have the same thing

I have seen someone grating cold butter and put it into a bowl with whiskey. Leave that in the fridge for a few days. The whiskey is supposed to taste better, and the butter was used for a whiskey buttercream cake.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 6 days ago (6 children)

Look, I enjoy good butter, too, but are you cooking with it? You probably won't notice a difference if you switch to a generic.

The butter is to lube those cans before he slides them in the ol keaster.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 days ago (9 children)

Regular butter for cooking

Kerrygold salted for spreading

Step 1: Wear a ski mask
Step 2: Shoplift?
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit?

(Step 3 is getting caught and becoming a prison slave 🙃; So yes "Profit" just not for you)

[–] [email protected] 19 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Dress up as ICE and state that this is material needed to trap Irish thugs living illegally in the US.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 days ago

You could also demand to see the kerrygold's papers, and then leave with it.

I like those groceries....except the soda is bad for you and expensive /wasting money. Ditch the soda for water which mixes with whiskey just fine. Also Coors is like making love in a canoe.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 days ago

That stuff would be about $50 or less total in my area, but I wouldn't buy any of those but the butter.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 days ago (11 children)

That Tennessee Honey is one of my favorite whiskey drinks. However due to America being a total shit head, I can no longer buy it as I don't want any of my money going there.

Anybody got an idea of what a good European drink is to replace it with? I drink it straight or when I want something more mellow I mix with fake DrPepper or fake Red Bull.

KerryGold probably making half the bill, extortion, I tell ye!

I do have to say, JD Honey is delicious... can easily drink that on the rocks.

I can confirm whiskey, coke, butter and a 12-pack of beers is all I need for the week.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 days ago

I must say, the butter is the only one these I would actually buy. Even then, only if I was going to make toast or something. I use store brand butter for baking.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 days ago (14 children)

It's a lot cheaper if you just make your own moonshine instead. Guy on reddit used to post pictures of his 100L water butt bubbling away, cost something stupidly low to fill it considering the volume, like £25 or something like that. Then he distilled it in batches.

The entire setup was comically simple too, like plug and play from parts you can easily buy and ingredients you find in any supermarket.
