  • I also don’t like to waste food. Do you know what food savety means? Like, living in an area where hypermarkets killed all competition… to decide later that this location doesn’t create enough revenue and close the store… leaving people without a car in a situation where getting food is problematic…

    I live in an european village and I do not have to drive 30 minutes to go to a hugh supermarket I can barely afford. I cross the road to go to a supermarket and bakery and once more for the local butcher. I work 40 hours and earn enough to go on vacation twice a year, own a car and two motorcycles… And there’s still money left to be put aside.




  • We are not pestered by US hypermarket chains here where I live. Our pendant would be REWE or EDEKA, Kaufland, Penny, Lidl or ALDI. Therefore I have no way to compare Costco chicken with the chicken from EDEKA/REWE/etc. Our supermarkets do seldome sell rotissery chicken. They leave that to food trucks that stand in their parking grounds.

    Our rotissery chicken also do not come cold in a plastic bag, but fresh and warm in Aluminium foil and an insulated bag.




  • That “people have fulltime jobs” and “don’t feel like cooking” arguments somehow baffles me. I somehow have no problem with finding time to cook and I work full time too. My parents also worked full time and at some time built a house after working 8 hours and two children. I remember that maybe once in 6 months my parents bought precooked food and on every other evening we had home cooked meals far from garbage.





  • Hu, that’s massive!

    I should be happy then that here in Germany we just had some crooked politicians and daughters of politicians getting bribed with millions to buy highly overpriced CoViD19 masks in the name of the state. At least she got jail time for it, but that one politician is still roaming free AND is active in politics… Oh, and there is that secretary of transport that signed a contract that will cost the federation 250 million Euros… even when the company doesn’t deliver or the state cancels the project…

    Guess what… All of them linked to one particular party!
