this is true, however, if you have a good full day once a month, it's honestly very easy to prep food and produce and meals to basically last an entire month with very little further effort / mess.
if you really know what you’re doing and/or have the right supplies, very yes

if you’re a normie in resources/knowledge then every sunday is a little easier for most people to swing. my parents (of no great culinary ability and living in the armpit of Canada) did it 40 years ago

know what you’re doing, maybe. but even outside of enthusiast cookery once a month cooking (“oamc”) has been a huge trend in recent years among very normal people. tons of blogs and groups and pinterests etc dedicated to it.

i’d argue it’s only worthwhile if you own a standalone freezer tho.

it's a tactless appropriation of latinx which is a non-gendered word for folks of latin origin because white people can't help but steal from everyone else and then claim victimhood

I don’t understand why the non-gendered term is Latinx instead of just Latin, which already exists and is already non-gendered.

Also, how do you pronounce Latinx? Latinsh? Latinks? Latin-ecks?

the descriptive words for folks of latin american origin in spanish are latino and latina because spanish is a gendered language

latinx respects the gender-like suffix while removing the gendering itself

iirc spanish also has no way of expressing a person of latin american origin who is non-binary so latinx does that as well

latin is a dead language. latino and latina are words that have existed for millions of years, so that's the important part

Also the way to spell it?

i mostly phrased it like that because a lot of goons have terrible diets. i eat like a pound of vegetables a day at least.

my diet isn’t terrible it just serves a different purpose

yeah we've recently started doing this a bit better. washing, cutting, drying vegetables, rolling them in paper towels and putting them in the fridge. makes it a lot easier to just pull some stuff out and cook asap during the week

what’s the storage like for this? i realised carrots were getting flaccid until i kept them inside plastic bag


also what’s wrong with freeze dried i suppose you don’t want to boil everything lol

for most things, you can roll your prepped veg in a paper towel, then a plastic bag or sealed container. the container keeps moisture high, the towel prevents it from condensing as much on the surface of the veg and getting slimy.

you can also just keep root vegetables buried in sand for a while.

freeze dried is great, especially for vegetables
you plan to cook! it’s just expensive as gently caress for the quantity if you don’t buy a $2k consumer freeze dryer that is by all reports a bit finicky.

most Spanish speakers don’t seem to care much because gendered languages do things like have everyone’s hands be male and their head be female

i have never known a person of latin american descent to say "latinx"

as with many of these generalizations it's term that can nearly always be replaced by something more specific, or if not, it should make you question whether you really need to be grouping people that way

AFAIK it has its origins in American acadamia. apparently without any thought given as to how to pronounce it.

I didn’t mean “a latin”, just “latin” instead of “latino” or “latina” vs “latinx”, but if that’s still the implication then eww never mind

I’m part Mexican and have never heard any of my family, young or old, use the term latinx. seems like a term only used in writing.

but they also just call themselves Mexican, or Mexican-American.

and yeah, don’t throw all people from former Spanish colonies into one big group. :eng101:
