Hey, cool, I use some of those! Not the coffee: wtf is with instant coffee? Do most people really still use that when a basic drip machine is so cheap and ubiquitous.

And the Jimmy Dean “Hot” is usually better tasting, unless you have someone who needs the mild

zalgotext ,

That’s not instant, those are tubs of pre-ground coffee.

I’d take instant over those brands made in a drip machine though.

leggettc18 ,

What brands would you buy? I’m looking to branch out

zalgotext , (edited )

I don’t have a specific brand recommendation, but if you want to absolutely max out your coffee experience, try to find a local roaster or coffee shop that stocks freshly roasted whole beans. Most places like that will offer to grind beans for you too, if you don’t have your own grinder at home.

The main problem with those giant pre-ground tubs is that they’re almost certainly stale. The longer coffee sits, the more it loses flavor, or develops off-flavors, and pre-round coffee stales even quicker than whole beans. So if you can’t find anything locally roasted near you, look for whole beans with a roast date somewhere on the package, ideally within the last two weeks or so.

Edit: typo

Psythik ,

Drip coffee takes too long and most people are too lazy/dumb to figure out how to schedule the coffee machine (if their machine even has that feature at all).

To maximize my sleep, I give myself a 15 minute window to get up and get to work. I don’t drink coffee, but if I did, I’d go with instant. Just heat up the water and stir in the coffee mix. Takes less than 2 minutes.

AA5B ,

I have to admit to k-cups. Horribly wasteful with the packaging but oh so convenient and much better than instant

I save my good coffee for the weekends when I can slow down and enjoy the process rather than impatiently wait

KingOfSuede ,

That’s why I used to do, but I was given a reusable K-Cup filter thing that just holds ground beans and is washable/reusable. All of the benefits of quick coffee and none of the waste!

Add another 30 seconds and you could have had Aeropress.

It’s a Trump. They spend an insane amount of money on marketing, but a bad product is a bad product.

It’s not product placement. Trump’s campaign staff is making a vain attempt to get Trump to talk about the issues rather than all the ineffective personal attacks and name calling.

They’ve been writing speeches to get Trump to talk about inflation. This time they added some props to force him to talk about how these items cost more now. Of course Trump only spent a few minutes saying something vague about inflation and then regressed back to his typical ramblings about how if Kamala gets elected the world will end or whatever.

Ideally this kind of message would work better if Trump was in a grocery store, but he doesn’t venture from his two homes very often these days, so they set up a table in front of his Golf course so he could talk about it there. So it looks like product placement, but it’s just a vain attempt to get Trump to deliver some kind of economic message.

Bapanada ,

Time to boycott all those companies. Added to the list that includes Goya.

FanciestPants ,

I don’t know if those companies had any say in whether their products were used, but this wasn’t supposed to be for advertising. It was supposed to be a gimmick for what was stated to be a message on the economy, but the orange atrocity personified saw a squirrel and the whole address ended up being the same whiny bullshit.

Grilipper54 ,

Johnsonville certainly supports this, I’m not sure about the others. I boycotted Johnsonville for a long time because of their financial support for Walker in Wisconsin years ago.

KyuubiNoKitsune ,

99% sure I saw that Folgers supports the right.

Hackworth ,

I mean, the way coffee gets to us seems pretty on brand for the right.

excral ,

Plot twist: the products were placed by competing brands because they knew the product placement would backfire

Nope Idiocracy is far more optimistic.

God damn it Johnsonville are the only halfway decent bratwurst my nowhere grocery carries. Guess it’ll be the rare time I find them at a farmers market.

GOD DAMN IT

I feel your pain!

pineapplelover ,

Guess no more honey bunch of oats. I hope cheerios is good.

ug02x ,

These are prrtty solid if you still want the oats and can find.them. www.cheerios.com/oat-crunch-cereals

dubyakay ,

Or just don’t buy shit over processed food.

pineapplelover ,

Actually interested in how to make my own cereal. Any tips, suggestions, advice?

dubyakay ,

Take a cup of steel cut oats (NOT rolled or instant), put them in pot with four times it’s volume in water. Bring to a boil then simmer for about twenty minutes stirring occasionally. Add half a cup of milk and one egg near the end. Stir well. Mix with honey if you like it sweet. Add some nuts and berries. Dig in.

A breakfast that’s not worthless.

pineapplelover ,

Bit unusual. Might give this a try. Thanks

dubyakay ,

The egg makes it deliciously creamy.

I also add bananas and walnuts usually.

Furbag ,

Sadly, there was also a box of Cheerios on the table, just not in this particular screenshot.

mjhelto ,

Haha the only thing they had to change between 2016 and now is replacing Pence with Vance and adding an exclamation point to the slogan.

…Holy shit… Is that why they picked Vance for VP? So they could save money on signs and shirts?

asexualchangeling ,

That’s been my theory since he was announced.

ChickenLadyLovesLife ,

I think they just like to avoid multisyllabic words with their base.

jpreston2005 ,

multi syllable names are for minorities, can’t get the base confused on who to hate vs idolize!

FiniteBanjo ,

Goddamnit I liked honey bunches of oats.

Wes4Humanity ,

Good news! Post people donate heavily to Dems and not much to Republicans… Not sure about the dark money though… No idea why he’s got breakfast there… Think he might be losing it

GiddyGap ,

Any chance their campaign just randomly grabbed stuff from the grocery store and put them there? Not sure the companies approved of this display. They do the same thing with music at Trump rallies. They just assume they can use it.

PenisDuckCuck9001 ,

Wtf is the message here supposed to be?

“vote for fascism. Fascism has better coffee”

Mammothmothman ,

But folgers is not good coffee

Wes4Humanity ,

They probably did… Folgers and Jimmy Dean are pretty right-wing, but Post gives mostly to Dems according to open secrets… I don’t know about the others

cybercitizen4 ,

It’s from a clip where Trump is showing the price changes for the items everyday Americans purchase, there were more tables with toilet paper, bread, milk, cheese, etc. He was saying that Kamala Harris was responsible for how expensive everything got and that it would continue if she wins.

GiddyGap ,

Sure, I understand that. Just not so sure that the companies approved the use of their products as props.

imaginepayingforred ,

Folgers is great

do you know where the door is or do you need an escort?

Maybe to the gas station for some burnt coffee lol

Edit: people are seriously mad about this? I thought it was a pretty good burn

Folgers is great

Doesn’t get you roasted I don’t know what would

Pathetic.

You wouldn’t understand the simple pleasures in life. Like coffee with a pleasant flavor… Or jokes.

@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

You just like sugar packets and or cream. No sane person actually likes the taste of that shit.

Edit: apparently a solid amount of Lemmy users fuck with Folgers.

imaginepayingforred ,

I’d prefer to remain ‘insane’ in the eyes of terminally online degenerates that never leave the house.

TrickDacy ,
@TrickDacy@lemmy.world avatar

So only terminally online degenerates have working tongues? Lol wtf

drosophila ,

lol, because that’s definitely the shut-in stereotype.

“Honey I’m really worried about our son, not only has he not left the house for weeks, this morning I found a bag of coffee beans in his room that was produced by a worker owned coop in Honduras!”

BigPotato ,

I’m not going to pretend Folger’s is some fine luxury brand. I’m not going to pretend it’s even good coffee. It’s fine. Not great but fine.

Is it shit? No, get your ratios right and it’s fine. It’s cheaper and better than a Starbucks cup. If you’re going for black coffee, you can do worse.

Rai ,

I’ve had forgers once and it was the most dirt tasting bullshit.

I’m with you.

Furbag ,

I actually just like the smell of it brewing. Heavenly.

Tastes like shit, though.

AscendantSquid ,

Why is this guy being downvoted? Is there an implication of Folgers endorsing Trump? Is it implied that his liking Folgers is because of their Trump endorsement?

I’m genuinely asking, I’m hella out of the loop

TrickDacy ,
@TrickDacy@lemmy.world avatar

Because Folgers is horrendously disgusting, for one. Also I think it’s being endorsed by trump here…

bestagon ,

I think they’re just upset because they have different opinions on coffee

HootinNHollerin ,

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised but shit, man.

Folger’s missed a great opportunity when coffee enemas became a fad. Slogan could have been “The best part of waking up, is Folger’s up your butt.”
