A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Carne asada. Tacos. Fucking food trucks in Portland want $15 for 3 street tacos. GTFO.
Granola. It's $5/lb at WinCo!
NA beer. People weren't buying reg beer so they just figured hey we'll wreck this market by pricing people out of it too! So I get no alcohol and it's the same price as regular beer? Piss off.
Also in Portland. Food trucks are no longer the cheap street food thing. Haven't been for years. Now they're trendy and commercialized like everything else. I hate it
Morons keep lining up no matter what they charge. The whole point of trucks is you don't have to pay the restaurant lease, servers or dishwashers.
Yeah, that means they can charge restaurant prices and pocket the difference!
The NA beer bothers me. They don’t have to pay all the various taxes and fees but it costs the same? Or more? There’s a brewery near me that is relatively large and ships internationally and their NA costs nearly 2x what another local much smaller place charges for real beer. That NA doesn’t even taste good in the world of NA beer let alone at their cost.
bulk granola, made in person seems quite expensive, rather than buying the pre-packaged from brand names.
I didn't say I make it "in person", that is their price per pound of bulk granola which, usually, should be the cheapest premade version of something.
Give Old Milwaukee NA a try. I can go the fancy beer route, like Athletica, but on a hot day, doing yardwork, a cold OM is quite nice.
Current local price is about 80 cents/can.
Yeah I'm all for cheap beer, I stopped drinking several years ago so unfortunately pounder NA and other more economical options aren't yet available. I never was loyal to one brand, pretty equal opportunity drinker for whatever was reasonable. Oh no advertisers, someone made it through your brand loyalty gauntlet!
