I have never seen mac and cheese in a can before and I am honestly mildly disgusted.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (3 children)

They started making canned spaghetti carbonara now too

It's like they're trying to commit war crimes.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Nah, just preparing for war times

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I imagine they're quite hard to do by accident

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Remember: it's not a war crime the first time.

Canned anything with cheese tastes revolting from my experience.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (7 children)

I mean Philly cheese steaks are made with canned cheese wiz, and then there's salsa queso dip they sell in cans, and everyone loves that shit.

Avoid at all costs. Bought one can for the novelty of feeling the same way. It is so much worse than you're imagining.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I can imagine fake chese custard and slight amounts of overcooked rubbery pasta.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Have you ever smelled some foam and had that give you a headache? Do you know that chemically smell?

If so, it tastes whole mouth like that but very concentrated.

There are also chunks but at the same time there is not discernable difference in texture or consistency. Just vague border regions that register montarily as the broad side of your tongue cuts through them like a razor.

You ought to be. It's a struggle meal, not because of the price but because you struggle to keep it down. The noodles feel simultaneously overcooked, limp and somehow grainy. The sauce is virtually flavorless except for a musky odor of nuclear cheese. The consistency of the sauce is like that of milk, and it does not adhere to the noodles. Your bowl will be a nice mix of cold, pallid noodle soup and boiling hot noodle soup.

Victoria would be proud to know her empire still provides for the people even now

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago

In British supermarkets, they often don't even put the beans on shelves. Instead they have stacked palettes of them, because they need to restock so often it'd be inefficient to have to unpack and shelve them.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Marmite, Lea and Perrin's, Curry.

Yup, this is actually the UK section and not just the beans section

Tikka masala is English food no matter how Indian it seems

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It was invented in Scotland, so it's British but not English.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Still can't understand how some people think England is synonymous with the entire United Kingdom, when in reality it's only a fraction of it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Probably because it's the centerpiece of the whole UK?

Probably because it's the country that created Britain and the UK to begin with?

It's really not that confusing if you put even a little thought into it.

Royaume-Uni/USA

Angleterre/États-Unis

With the signs in two languages and the one trying to be in english (lulz) being smaller, where in Quebec is that?

Edit: Turns out it's in France, I don't think they would be importing French milk all the way to Quebec

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Another clue it isn't Quebec is that Quebec wouldn't bother having a separate US section when the States are just a couple hours drive away.

Canned Macaroni and Cheese?

Barbarians!

It comes out of a damn box!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Beautiful. This should be the national flag.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm British and I only eat beans and curry, so I can't see any problem here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

The vindaloo and butter chicken sauces are fuckin class

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Looks about right.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

I bet only British tourists are shopping in this section. French people craving for beans are just eating cassoulet.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I regularly buy from the UK section of my supermarket. Brown sauce and lemon curd are necessities.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

HP, Branston, marmalade, and additionally, Cream Crackers due to childhood trauma

is it joint usa/uk food section?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Looking at both flags alternating repeatedly on every shelf I would assume yes.

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

So the English language food section

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oi cunt where's my section then? -Australia

All of that is uk other than the macaroni. Even the Indian curries are uk. That's like our speciality, not fish n chips

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

FYIW, that brand of "simmer sauce" is a staple in my US kitchen.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Jeez why so many cans? Is the country getting ready for war?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This is a Carrefour, right? I've quit shopping at Carrefour a while back. I find their selection getting steadily worse, their house brands quality very low, their price not competitive. Nowadays I shop at medium size chains, and most of non food online, trying to use Amazon as a last resort.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, Grand Frais is my usual now

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I'm in Spain. I usually shop at Lidl, Aldi, or Mercadona, a large chain of medium size stores, generally well regarded, with a very good selection, and high quality house brands. Mercadona puts customer satisfaction first, and employee satisfaction second. This seems to be true as employee satisfaction is high, rotation low, and satisfaction levels of around 70%, which in this type of sector is very high. They also pay up to 150% of the median income for these types of jobs.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Apart from having the flags the wrong way around, what's wrong?
