Pick 1

easily the rice

I pick the life size tifa doll

I love rice. Haven't touched my shitch in years

55 kg of rice

do you really need that much

Buy a Switch 2, stream myself bing bing wahoo then take the donated money to buy 110 bags of rice.

the rice would help me repair a lot of electronics, then i can sell the electronics to buy many switch 2s

it's more of a pointing out how expensive rice got in Japan

yeah, thats barely enough to feed you for a day

Funny enough there's a porn game about people starving because Donald Trump hoarded all of their rice.

That's 11 motherfuckin bags of rice, and it's cheaper and you can't even use the switch without shelling out more. Easy decision.

It's like 30
How the hell did you land on a number like 8000?

you see this expensive meme rice

that's how expensive rice is in japan

come on dude, koshihikari is being sold here as well and i can see it's 11 bucks per kilo which is more than thrice regular kinds.

I'd rather get 16 bags of this + tip.

yes but japanese rice numba wan, true nipponjin will never buy gaijin rice

Come on man this is a simple problem, you can figure this out

4500 jpy for 5kg of rice

The fuck ?? in here it just about 300 jpy

the price of rice has doubled this year in Japan

Bro they fucking farmed rice, how the fuck that can happen ?

I think you meant to say the price of rice is twice.

It keeps going higher.

How??? It's Japan

The reason why rice in Japan is so expensive is because of nationalism. In Japan, they believe their strain of japonica rice (for example, Koshihikari) is the best in the world and of the highest quality. Even though it has terrible yield (4 tons per hectare), isn't drought resistant, and can only survive in cool climates. The US has a better strain of japonica (Calrose) which has more than double the yield, is drought resistant, and can be harvested multiple times a year in all climate.

The Japanese has too much pride to buy foreign rice, from the US who did their rice better, and especially from China.

The average Japanese would rather buy more expensive rice and eat the costs rather than buy cheaper imports.

Check here: the rice is basically 4 times cheaper.

The reason why rice in Japan is so expensive is because of nationalism.

Uh, no. The reason it's expensive is because,

it has terrible yield (4 tons per hectare), isn't drought resistant, and can only survive in cool climates.

Ricecels btfo
Wheatchads win again

Time to make your own rice

Those issues have always been the case
The real problem is chinks buying up all the rice and then storing it shittily and having to throw it out and buy more

Every country has a strategic food reserve. Prices wouldn't go high if people were open to eating other options. Imported rice in Japan is significantly cheaper than domestic Japanese rice. But nobody wants to eat imported rice. High demand and low supply makes things more expensive.

I don't want to play Mario so I'd rather get some rice. Wake me when Deck 2 comes out.

Wheatchads

more like whitechads

The rice I guess, I don't need toys.

Holy shit only 11 5kg bags?????

Wtf, why rice is so expensive?

i can see it's 11 bucks per kilo

Holy shit, here in spain you can get bomba rice from Valencia with protected origin for like 3€ per kilo, there's no way this rice is worth 11$ per kilo.

Okay, I lied, looked in carrefour and it's 6.15€/kg, and I bet it's a much better rice than this shit.

Classic display of sour grapes

how the fuck is rice to expensive

This is rice, why would you want to buy rice at such high prices.

Never said I would

Soooooo.... Should I just start a new company that exports rice exclusively to Japan and file for bankrupcy when the prices drop?
Sounds like free money to me.

The rice is a necessity. My wife is Japanese and she can't live without it. That and miso soup.

yeah my wife is a japanese pornstar and this happens to me too

How many pounds is a single bag of rice like that?

Ask more clearly

rice is for the beta manlet asians. (wheat) noodles are what creates alpha asians

The switch 2 rice is not good for you

One bag (5kgs) of japanese rice is ¥4500, roughly $30 / 28€

Bro, it's insanely expensive, wtf. It's more ¥2000-3000 there. You'd get 20-25 bags for this price. That looks like it's the IMPORTED price.
Just buy thai rice, it's good and cheap.

the tallest Asians are northern Chinese

their staple diet is wheat noodles

It's true.

Even if I calculated the rice in 1KG packages I buy it at 1,5€, a little less but I don't remember how much, 55KG of rice would be 82,5€ not even close to a switch 2.
What the hell happened in Japan?

30 dollars for a bag of rice is obscene

creates alpha asians

Horse milk and archery

It's a few weeks worth here. If you have a family, it's shorter. It's the staple crop. Rice prices are really expensive in Japan, I'm unclear why. Quite a bit more than the US.

The government is very protective against foreign growers, and Japan's not that efficient of a rice growing location.

In fact, I'm just gonna take a photo of the rice section in the grocery near me.

we calculating how much rice we get for 50,000 yen in our countries?
Cheapest rice on Tesco is £1.30/kg. 50k yen is ~£260. Dunno what you'd want to do with 200kg of rice. Ballast?
Additionally, the switch 2 is £400 in the UK. That'd be 307kg of rice.

welcome to the rice fields

Anon Babble is now talking about rice prices

lol what the fuck goes on while i was sleeping

I'm gonna go with uhhhh.... 86 kilograms of frozen kfc wings.

because it's.... LE HECKIN WHOLESOME LE JAPANESE RICE! seriously, your average normgroid would eat literal shit as long as you told them it's from japan

I've moved on to quinoa.

Trolls trying to get a reaction out of people due to nintendo's prices.

those rice prices

we Gasaraki now

Both because I'm not poor.

If I am absolutely forced to choose, I'll take the Switch and resell it. Muh diabeetus doesn't play well with rice.

Muh diabeetus

I'm genuinely sorry you are afflicted with that absolutely shit-tier disease, anon. Hope you have it under control.

How many bags of rice are required to attract asian females?

Thank you, it is under great control with minimal amounts of insulin, but it still fucking sucks every day.

What games does the rice have?

Hopefully the famine or whatever the fuck is happening to their nippon rice milled 100x solves their autism. Or maybe all the old people will starve to death and solve a different problem.

It does and unfortunately the average person has no idea how fucking harmful to everything else in your body having your blood glucose above a certain threshold is. Of course big pharma doesn't want you to know because it's in their best interest that you are permanently sick.

The problem with Switch 2 isn't the hardware, it's the software.
In my country, for $80 of Mario Kart I can buy about 10 games on Steam (not including sales)

I can eat at least five cups of rice a day. I am not sure how much that is...but I already have a 6600 AMD GPU, and a Meta Quest 3. Buying rice.
Eating rice within thirty minutes BTW.

I could never and would never want to consume all the rice before it goes bad so I'd rather buy the switch, sell it for cash and then buy some drugs

PS5

800$ for 480p 35 fps and zero games

Xbox

730$ for 360p 25 fps and zero games

Steam Deck

PC but with 50% performance for 90% price

Switch 2

450$ for 4k 60 fps for shitload of kino games

You can't get 86kg of chicken for $400 nigga.

How old of rice are you willing to eat? I hate stale rice.

shitload of kino games

?

These are all too expensive.

I don't eat rice so I can't answer that

It's so many different things with the Switch 2 that just kind of suck total ass. A bummer.

They import most of their rice and the yen has been weak for decades. A weak currency isnt always a good thing

450$ to get bing binged in the butt by Nintendo

ftfy

Neither. I only eat wheat and rye; the white man's grain.

You could play Mancala.

You are listing factors which benefit the grower, not the consumer. A rice variety which grows in a day and yields a kilo of grains, would be "the best" by your standard, but if went bad quickly and tasted bad it wouldn't be in any objective sense.

buy 11 bags of rice

spend the other $480 i saved on a switch

ez

Based drug enjoyer.

wheat

Didn't it come from whats now Turkey originally?

inb4 b-but that was literally thousands of years ago

Not my problem

How big are the bags?

Groats > potatoes > pasta > rice

Those ones are 5kg.

Turks weren't in Turket thousands of years ago, retard. That was Greece and it still is rightful Roman clay.

No need to be proud of living in a poor 3rd world country. The Switch 2 is a toy for civilized people with jobs.

Neither of those are white.
That being said, I only eat food from places whites have conquered at least once

Buy a switch 2

Or buy 5333kg of rice

and you wonder why your fucking country thinks videogames are retarded

i can get japonica rice for 3,5€ / kg
probably not grown in glorious nipponland but it is the same sort of rice

the rice, then emulate classic games, because new games are boring. theres so much i havent played yet. not that i even have the time to play everything

yeah i can
pic is 28 lei
switch 2 is 2418 lei

5333kg

You can't buy nearly 3 tons of rice for that amount, retarded nigger/

N-NANI? I-IS THAT A BOWL OF COMPLETELY PLAIN WAITO RAISU I SEE? WAKU WAKU SUGOI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *goes super saiyan* UREISHII!!! *hyoshigi clacking* YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! *unzips katana* SUBARASHII!!!!!!! *pulls out chopsticks* ITADAKIMASU!!!!!!!!!!!!! *shoves bland rice into mouth like a starving dog* MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM SO OISHII!!!!!!! I WAS TRANSPORTED TO ANOTHER WORLD AND I DEFEATED THE DEMON KING FOR A BOWL OF RICE!!!!!!!!! *commits sudoku*

a swtich 2 costs 11 bags of rice

japs will use anything but the metric system

11 koku

warlords would die for this

It can't be helped.

*cracks a raw egg on top*
your welcome, bonape tee

give me the 55 kilograms

Good rice is great though, you can eat it by itself by the kilo. What makes rice good? I don't know but it certainly exists.

4 dollars for 4 kilo bags here in Norway

okay, 55 kilograms of switch 2s are headed your way

The average Japanese would rather buy more expensive rice and eat the costs rather than buy cheaper imports.

absolutely based

55kg is about 121 pounds in freedom units
2 person household here, eating rice almost every day, and we go through ~35 pounds per year
I think I'd prefer almost 3.5 years of rice to a nintendo switch

Wtf with yumepirika shilling? I mean, it is very tasty, but wtf Hokkaido.

hmm what a hard descision

jew, unironicaly maxjewed and they have to watch foreign scalper buying all the rice and selling then 10$ per grain and if you are against it your racist.

Sakuna

30 bucks for 5kg of rice

What the fuck is going on in Japan

That's some expensive rice

Elaborate?

Well good thing no country in the west does anything that stupid.

Crazy to think these Filthyfrank vids are 10+ years old. That's like posting GIRUGAMESH post covid

I know that the Japanese economy is collapsing and Poland is forecast to surpass them in GDP per capita soon, but I didn't know it was that bad.

but I already have a 6600 AMD GPU

Based penny pincher

That's some expensive rice wtf

>Switch 2

450$

+ 80 bucks per game
+ 80 bucks for a real controller
+ NSO online
+ tip

Wrong. Their government are fucking retards who EXPORTED a lot of rice last year, more than usual, to cover the hole the weak yen left in the budget. They REFUSE to increase imports.

This is why you have Japs buy their own produced rice while on vacation in Korea or Vietnam. 'Cuz it's fucking CHEAPER abroad than home.

This resulted in people panic buying rice and stores were empty almost all summer until September. NHK (national television) and media overall blamed gaijin for eating all the rice.

Now similar shit is happening with the government releasing emergency stockpiles after they sold a fuckton of rice to chinks (whoops!).

Who bought the stockpile? JA Group (Japan Agricultural Cooperatives), aka the reason why fruit is artifically scarce and a fucking watermelon costs over 4000 yen.

What did JA do with the rice? Hoarded it so prices are still high.

Bag of 10 kg rice from over 6 months ago used to be 4500 yen, is now over 9000 yen. Cheapest rice I could find by the way. Fuck rice, I stopped buying it and eat pasta (5 kg of pasta can be bought for 1200 yen) with chicken.

Japs are super spineless, getting fucked by corporations, their own government, cooperatives and foreigners. In response, they do nothing. If price of bread DOUBLED in a few months, people would be rioting against the government.

t. unfortunately a foreign student here

Save money for my ps6, I don’t eat rice like that and the switch doesn’t have 5 games I would want to play or two games I would play daily on it.

white rice with fried eggs and spicy spam is so tasty bros

I can find rice for 1.25 euros/kg and we don't even grow rice in this country. Everything is imported.
That's 300+kg of rice vs a switch 2. Something is fucked in japan if rice prices are so high.

You forgot the free cucking session with a nigger in a mario costume.

rice any day and all day

It baffles me when a country imports a base product of their culture, I mean, at the very least they should be able to produce enough supply to satisfy the internal demand.

They're one and the same.

My bad, I meant to say "bread prices *IN MY COUNTRY". God knows Japs would not give a fuck if their softcake """bread""" got more expensive.

That's a weird assumption to make. Japan's not a particularly well adapted place for rice growing. They've historically tended to be resource poor.

Being a zoomer in Japan must be so fucking blackpilling.
You either buy something to eat, or some rolls for your Korean gacha game. All while working 11 hours a day. I wonder if suicide statistics are exploding

Rice has no games

Bazat cancerdecolonmaxxer.

Nintendo would have had me if they'd kept a reasonable price and I would have started building up a digital library with them because that part no longer being tied to a console gen is what's kept me away but it's more like something I was grudgingly leaning towards instead of being excited to get into. I'm not going to buy the next sony or xbox console at these prices unless they end this gen with a strong library which they fucking won't so I'm not paying that money for something which is merely bringing nintendo up to current gen or slightly better specs.

It baffles me when a country imports a base product of their culture

Did you know only 10% of Japan's land is arable?

no point in living as an old man anyway

+ 80 bucks per game

Wait..... Games are not free????? Holy SHIT!!!

+ 80 bucks for a real controller

Which is less than other consoles

+ NSO online

That costs less than other consoles

bonape tee

oh putain...

This is the reason why Imperial Japan invaded Thailand, Korea and others. Because those places can actually fucking grow fruits, vegetables and rice.

We could have had nice things, but filthy gaijin ruin everything.

I can't believe you genuinely believe this retarded breainrot spout

breainrot

What's a breainrot?

Bad harvest and ancient traditional (read: fucking inefficient and corrupt) distribution methods.

The US has a better strain of japonica (Calrose) which has more than double the yield, is drought resistant, and can be harvested multiple times a year in all climate.

Notice that at no moment he comments on the quality of the rice.

muh jap quality rice folded 500 times

This is a retarded nigger that will buy $500 jap watermelon and $50 strawberries.

It's really down to the use case of the rice. Wouldn't use Koshihikari for pilaf or something because it's too wet/sticky. Use the Nip rice for Nip shit and the Burger rice for Burger shit, even if Calrose is pretty flexible and "close enough" unless all you've eaten your whole life is Koshihikari and have that autism for it.

Japanese rice is the highest quality rice in the world because it's made in Japan. If you grow the same rice outside of Japan the rice will be 90% worse.

cry more westerner

If you wonder why dogshit like this is so expensive, it's because they believe in gay nonsense where if they prune an entire apple tree except for 1 apple, the tree will "focus all their deliciousness" into 1 single apple, and then selling that single apple for $1000. Absolute retarded drivel.

nonsense

retard

Have you even ate one of those?
It's not made with the burger philosophy of more for cheap = better.

It's always funny hearing amerimutts opinions on food.

What goes well with rice?
I'm trying to eat less fast food slop, and rice is pretty cheap. Also needs to be something easy. I'm mostly doing it with beans then putting that in a tortilla

Japan is an autistic country. This is the only kind of rice they want to eat.

why does rice have a supersaiyan hair logo?

The top chefs in the world are all American

americans dare talk about food when they don't even spend ten years learning how to prepare the tamago

Most things goes well with rice but if you want some top contenders, curry (JP style, not saar style), steaks/yakiniku, most stews.

And they wonder why no other country wants to buy their genetically modified, hormone-injected slop

so should I or should I not invest in American rice because it could be on the table for negotiations

theres no fucking way 55kg of rice is a few weeks of rice for you unless you are a family of sumo wrestlers

A switch 2 would last longer than 11 bags of rice. I eat a lot of rice.

raw egg and onions sauce

The rice cooks the egg.

t. obese

Rice. Switch 2 isn't worth it, especially since they said they could remotely kill your console now if they THINK you're pirating games.

Its them having roughly one tenth of the arable land of a single US state to grow everything in, 70% of which is earmarked explicitly for rice beans and wheat. Food in general is expensive because theyre trying to feed a city with the combined population of NYC, LA and Chicago with basically 2 counties in Iowa worth of farmland. Theres almost no room for commercial fruit production, which doesnt even get into the way that theres onely going to be 1 in 10 harvested fruits that are visually appealing enough to be sold raw instead of being ground up for some other processing

raw egg

Enjoy your salmon poisoning

Literally buy deli meat and bread and egg
Mix egg, spread on toast
Toast on pan
Make sandwich
Alternatively,
Make sandwich (no egg)

I haven't eatened rice in years
Who the fuck eates carbs? Fat fucks, that's whom

Just like US has top scientists with a population that points to a map when asked where Agrabah is, it has some great chefs but the average murican has the taste bud of a stray dog.

curry (JP style, not saar style),

It's literally the same shit.

Oh yeah, I forgot US has no egg standards. My bad.

Curry and other stews. Raw egg + onions sauce, raw egg + mayo, butter + onions sauce + green onion. Onions sauce + wasabi. All cheap, tasty and easly available.

Have the Japan people thought of eating something other than rice?

English fluency has skyrocketed among younger gens because they're trying to get out lol

Does white rice really never expire? Just throw that sucka in the closet and eat it over the next 40 years

literally quantiy vs quality
I don't even eat rice btw, have fun eating your mutant rice

I have eaten those. I've eaten it in Japan, where I live. They're not particularly good. The fruit in general is not as good as back in the US, but it is more expensive.
Some stuff is fine, fruit is whatever. I'm pretty sure the very expensive fruit stuff is mostly for omiyage.

no ginger on fish? but comboing it with meat is fine right?
fuck retards soaking their sushi on onions sauce though

Retard question.
I bought the Aroma rice cooker, it has lines for if you're making white or brown rice (they need different amounts of water). But what if it's yellow of wild rice? Can I just use the measurements on the rice packet for stovetop and that ratio is the same for a rice cooker?

You fags would rather discuss rice than play video games.

onions sauce

Enjoy your sodium overdose

The fruit in general is not as good as back in the US

lol
lmao

I can make a myriad of dishes with rice, can't play 2 games on the switch. So rice

Well, yellow rice is white rice with turmeric added in. So, cook it like white rice.
For wild rice, cook it at a 1 part rice, 2 part water ratio. Cook it on the brown rice setting. That should be fine.

Just don't add extra salt when you use onions sauce.

I mean, that anon is right. Most fresh produce I've eaten in Japan has been pretty subpar.

Drink water you fucking retard

Switch 2. Having all that rice at one time that you're not even going to eat immediately is just asking for weevil infestation

Wait a lb of rice per person per day? That's a shit load

50kg of rice for $300

It's not as bad as I thought initially.

Bugs will just spawn on your rice goy!!

Maybe just keep it in the bag?

Weevils can chew through bags

Just don't tell them where you keep your rice stored?

Certain stuff grows well here, and up in Hokkaido the seafood is quite good, oysters and crab in particular is cheap and high quality.
Most fruit, eh. In season apples aren't bad. Grapes are hilariously expensive. Still blows my mind. Fruits aren't consistent, but I lived in Arizona back home, and there's lots of farms in Arizona and California so fruit is cheap, fruit is high quality.

Can i get protein instead of the rice? if not I'll take the switch and sell it for meat

this thread

you fags would eat dog food if they told you it was japan branded

Everyone seems to say the jap rice is retardedly expensive

They can read minds, anon

Is jasmine rice the same as white rice?

I hate this shit so much it's unreal.

porn game

huh?

console

lmao

not if every meal throughout the day is rice

Not for you

All the games I want to play aren't on sale and pirating is too much of a hassle.

well the switch has none, so there's that.

Money doesn't vanish if you don't spend it. Don't buy all your rice at once retard.

why cant i play games and shitpost at the same time?

No shit, Sherlock

Then don't complain about a non issue you child brained retard

which way, white boi

The OP literally asked whether you'd buy one Switch 2 or 11 bags of race, and I simply responded to it in a literal sense, you dildo.

You are literally retarded.
No where did OP force you to buy all your rice at once. Even if he did you could tell him to fuck off, but you would rather defend you stupid point.

you will own nothing and be happy

Well, it's a rice cooker, so no matter what you have a huge margin of error before you end up with mushy slop or burned to a crisp shit, so just try it a few times and make a note of your rice:water ratio once you have something acceptable.

I already have 11 bags of rice so I will take the switch 2

I don't eat rice, so I would get more use out of the Switch 2.

What about a threesome for 30 minutes or 20 Canadian quality burgers?

Rice is for bug eating gooks who can’t chew because they’re jaw too small for their cranium

It's not that you can't, it's that you don't.
And neither does anyone else, let's be real here.

55kg of rice for ~306 euros

Rice it is. Fuck Switch. Man's gotta eat.

Rice

They dose the rice with chemicals to keep your eye closed. Just imagine how much money it makes when the Asian people can’t see pictures.

20 Canadian quality burgers

Can't get aids from burgers

Just don’t go too deep and kiss with your mouth closed. It’s totally fine usually. Let’s assume that variable ecks is false. Debate it.

One feeds you body, another drains your balls.
Simple as that

rice is chinese and they gave the world this wonderplant, not just japan

The japanese word for America is Rice Country.
Rice is the most American thing to ever exist.

$50 for a 5k bag of rice

That is 10x more than it should cost

holy mother of incel

the price of rice is on the rise.

the rice is thrice the price and thats not nice ill say it twice
the rice is thrice the price and thats not nice ill say it twice

he doesn't keep his rice in a sealed chest

NGMI

fpbp /thread
we eating good

You'd have to be retarded as a consumer to spend $600 on a jewtendo switch 2 console slop for a slightly scaled njudea mobile chip that plays bing bing wahoo.

For $120 with gamepass for 6 months you can buy an xbox series S which is 3x more powerful than a steam deck.

No one sent you to dive headlong into American ships.

White, brown, jasmine, yellow, or wild rice? Which is the best?
Yellow and wild seem to be a lot more expensive

did the occupation ever end? this just feels weird

why are weebs always squawking about how japan should excommunicate the rest of the world then?

arable

ara ara arable~

trade eggs to the US in exchange for rice

7€/kg ish for rice? That's 5 times more expensive than it should be

I could eat like a king for a year with the rice. Can't eat a Switch.

But you're simply fabricating a theoretical reasonable answer for what is, in reality, Japanese fragile ego.

about $6 per kilo

Holy shit, I'm going to contraband rice to Japan

Does this make the Japanese the lowest caste of Israeli golem?

Its grorious Nippon rice, no rice in the world compares. It is a PRIVILEGE to enjoy such snowy grains

But your country doesn't ban GMOs, you retarded faggot. Nor should it, because organic mutation is far less beneficial on average given it's fucking random, obviously.

I do not know which rice is better, just that his arguments do not prove supriority of the American one. In Europe, hardy varienties of vegetables and fruit are usually tasteless.

The shitch2 obviously
(So I can sell it for a high price a :))

south korea is lower on the ladder technically but there is a lot more below that. 1st world used to be a term that stood for alliance to america during the cold war and not power level.

to be fair to japs, last time they had a spine they got nuked twice

This is a chink shill, notice the obvious signs.

Neither of those are white.

Brownoid opinions are always hilarious. You dumb conquered bitches don't get to decide who is White and who isn't kek

Persian*

You'll own 55kg of rice you fucking retard

4 unripe

2 overripe

1 rotting

absolute yikeroni

For 450 bucks I could get 32 bags (320 pounds) of the rice I usually get.
I already have a switch1 and a steamdeck, so I'll take the rice.

food analogy

I mean it makes sense when you think about it that way. That must be one juicy apple.

if it worked that way the apple would be the size of a pig

Even better. Scientists, get on this.

and people will still call me crazy when I say expedition33 wouldn't be so successful if it was made in japan because of anti-japanese sentiment spread everywhere online

How else am I supposed to explain things to americans?

The only answer.

Post any scientific article that proves your gay faggot jap claims that an apple tree with 1 apple tastes better than an apple tree with 1000 apples.

getting to sit at the most iconic desk in the world and try on a fun hat

humiliation

I don’t get it

According to Japan, they invented rice.

Post any (((scientific article)))

Shut the fuck up, mutt

What tastes better, one good apple or that same apple split 1000 times

Americans seriously need a scientist to get paid by mosanto to beat this brain buster

I accept your concession.

yumepirika

I just bought 10kg of that three days ago, I was running out.

Calrose is absolute garbage rice

That's literally how any fruit or vegetable works.
Fruits and vegetables are the reproduction method for the plant, if you remove all but one from it it has to put all the energy into that or it thinks it will die without ever reproducing.

proofs?

Calrose is absolute garbage rice

Source? You got a detailed breakdown on the nutritional data on Calrose and other strains of rice?

Rice isn't that expensive it's like $2 for 5lbs here I always keep multiple bags

it has to put all the energy into that

japanese apples folded 1000 times

t. has never grown a plant in their entire life

If you cut off all but one of the fruits or veggies from a plant after they set all of the energy goes to what's left.
This isn't a hard concept to grasp if you have ever grown something.

It tastes like shit and has a bad texture

Rice is a peasant food and will not cross my plate.

Picking just one is a poor mans selection; a very trifling selection.
