Is food that expensive in Euroland? I can buy ingredients to make like 10 bowls for the cost of buying like 4 at Chipotle and the only time consuming part of making them is going to be initially cooking the chicken(even then, grilling chicken takes like ~15-20 minutes, and you can cut it up and flash fry it in a pan even faster but it dries out more). Rice can cook while you monitor the chicken, and the beans/diced tomatoes/corn you can buy in cans and either microwave before putting everything together or just let the heat of the chicken/rice warm it up. Mimicking the Chipotle salsa and such is going to be the really hard part but I personally don't give a fuck about it, and especially if this is more of a statement on eating healthy it's pretty much irrelevant.
Oh yea, hi internet I am back, kind of(not really).

SpinTD is fun, wraith Night:expansion is kinda fun? Beat that with Jakky, Bat, Omni, Sniper last night.

Yeah food in Europe can be pretty expensive.
But euros are rich bastards with no college loans to pay off, so it works out.

Lord knows I'm as unattractive as a moray eel.
A moray eel is an oddly specific thing to compare yourself to.
Also I don't think moray eels look that bad to be honest.

Ketara is just ashamed of his pharyngeal jaws, that's the true cause of his anime life. Makes kissing very awkward.

It's not that expensive. You just need to get out of the mindset of American cuisine and it becomes cheaper (not counting the more expensive countries) You will never get something with avocado, beef or chicken as cheap as in the US but aubergine, beets, fish, pork, olive oil, root vegetables are as or cheaper than the US depending on region in EU.

Food in Germany is cheap as fuck as long as we are not talking restaurant. There it depends on the region.

Oh man. Blade and Souls is actually going to come to NA? There are so many people watching the alpha right now on Twitch.
I thought the game was really bad, thus no hope of going to NA.

Why is it bad? Won't buy it either way cuz Korean MMO but it seems pretty decent?
|
Dude Korean MMOs are the best.
All grinding, all fanservice, no fucks given.
|
I played it on some server where like 50% of text was Russian and the other 50% broken English but it was pretty fun.

I think the only Korean MMO I've played was Tera (maybe archeage is that one Korean?), and this game looks better than that at least

Lol.
Taco Bell is shite,
Stuff like Costco, Chipotle, and Chic-Fil-A are excellent chains though. Pity you guys don't have them.
There are a few Chipotle in large Western Euro cities. And Costco is fairly common in the UK, there's a few in Spain, and Costco's going to open up its first French store this November in 2016. Apparently French regulators and competitors too OP and have been screwing with their entry plans over and over again.
EDIT: WAAAAIT. Red's alive? hiiii
I kind of assumed you died, like PX did for a time.

He appeared to assure us that he wasn't dead, then died again.

If Taco Bell is somehow impressive for TexMex in your area, I am deeply and unremittingly sorry. To you and your digestive tract.

The only time I ever ate Taco Bell was when I didn't eat gluten for like 3-4 years due to digestive issues (and thinking back taco bell probably was just as bad as gluten would have been) and I was thoroughly unimpressed with it. Either your texmex is horrible or your vastly overestimating taco bell
