Eh, might have steaks more than once a year or so. Still wouldn’t be a regular thing.
Would likely increase the usage of aged balsamic to more than just a very dribble more and then.
Would definitely cook with better bourbons when I use it. Not that it really makes a huge difference in most cases, but I usually have a little bit while cooking when I do, so it would be nice lol.
Brisket
A fully stocked liquor cabinet. All the charcuterie board staples and all the cheeses ever. Throw some smoked salmon in there too.
Berries
High quality chocolate. Most of the stuff in the local grocery stores is cheap, waxy and awful. There’s a place within reasonable distance with the good stuff, but it’s hella expensive.
Aldi and Lidl have good German and Belgian chocolates pretty cheaply. Like $2 for a big bar.
Thanks! That is good to know. We have some of those around. Not on our usual rotation (a little out of the way) but this could change that. I know they have pretty good produce in there, because I have used them for that on occasion.
Sushi would be nice. I have pretty cheap/basic taste otherwise lol. Maybe Korean fried chicken.
Full Irish breakfast. Every single day until a heart attack gets me.
Nah, Ulster fry for me.
What’s in a full Irish breakfast?
The typical ingredients are bacon, sausages, eggs, black pudding, baked beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, toast, fried bread and a beverage such as coffee or tea. Hash browns are a common contemporary but non-traditional inclusion.
Ah right, yeah that all sounds very much like something I can get behind!! Thank you
My heart hurts reading this list, I love it!
There’s my favourite chipper in Greystones, Ireland. They sell the Tasty Roll. Probably instant cancer, but I don’t give a damn. I grab one every time I’m down there.
It’s a baguette filled with chips (fries), bacon, garlic sauce and molten cheese.
that sounds amazing
- Beef jerky
- Salmon
- Cashew nuts

Beef jerky and swordfish for me.
Swordfish is a great answer!
It’s been too long since I had that! Got scared off due to all the mercury levels, and now I forget about how great it tastes, mercury be damned!
Swordfish? Interesting… What’s that like?
Pointy!
No but really it’s got a deep flavor with some metallic tone, like tuna? It’s fantastic as a big “steak”.
Nice restaurant food, but I guess that doesn’t count.
Lychees. The funny thing is that I can afford lychees, but I always think “Why buy them when these perfectly good grapes cost three times less?”
Lychees are fine, but rambutan are the GOAT. I’m not sure where you live, but they’re super hard to find in the US in good quality.
Rambutan have a fishy taste to me. But longan might give the lychee a run for their money 😋
That’s fascinating. I never got that taste from rambutan. We actually had a tree in our yard, along with papaya, and I would just go pick them fresh before school.
You ever had snake fruit? Now that’s an acquired taste!
(…also, mangosteen is the GOAT) 🐐
Hmmmm mangosteen is fine, but not quite as good to me.
They also taste fishy to me, but much more acidic 😆
And I haven’t yet mastered getting into them; it’s not unusual for me to injure myself when I try🫣
I file them under “not worth the effort” 😮💨
Avocado, nuts, fish, kombucha
I guess fancy wine or whiskey.
I would always have restaurant hummus on hand.
All the most interesting cheeses
Yakitori, tom yum soup, chicken skewers, sushi, exotic fruit, foreign snacks eg. biltong, ukrainian candy, japanese gummies
- Real pizza
- Vege burgers
- Aloe Vera juice
Depending on your location you can grow aloe very easily. It will grow from any cut bit put in soil
