At least you won’t die from dehydration
I have seen someone grating cold butter and put it into a bowl with whiskey. Leave that in the fridge for a few days. The whiskey is supposed to taste better, and the butter was used for a whiskey buttercream cake.
I can confirm whiskey, coke, butter and a 12-pack of beers is all I need for the week.
Add another 20 bucks for the two packs of cigarettes for the two days. How could you forget that?
Also, honey Jack? Yuck. Jim Beam all the way baby.
Is the butter there to get the taste of the other three out of your mouth?

Ewwwww is that sugar free coke?
Technically most coke is “sugar free” in the strictest sense of table sugar versus corn syrup.
Coke zero is decent
Diet coke is disgusting
Ditto Pepsi
pepsi max genuinely makes me want to vomit. i once only had the option to take a pepsi max at a KFC, took a few sips and felt so disgusted i didn’t even want to eat anymore. threw it out, packed my food, and went to buy a coke on the way home
are my taste buds broken? or do people really like the flavour of what i can only describe as a 6 year old’s bathroom potion of various chemicals, died black, sweetened, and carbonated
I recently discovered that there is a similar taste reaction to aspartame than there is to cilantro. It doesn’t taste like soap, but it tastes awful to some people. I can’t drink any sugar-free or diet drinks as they all taste horrific to me
dang! good to know
Well, you did just describe my experience with diet Pepsi pretty well…
I’m the opposite, I prefer diet Coke and diet Pepsi. Chances are that you don’t like aspartame.
I hear this but I don’t understand. All diet soft drinks taste absolutely disgusting to me. I’ve had both Coke Zero and Diet Coke and both have that disgusting fake sugar aftertaste.
I either get non-Diet soft drinks or I go flavored sparkling water. I can’t do that fake sugar shit. It’s nasty.
But the one exception for me is that I put fake sugar in my coffee. The bitter aftertaste of the coffee helps mask the aftertaste of the fake sugar.
ah man to me coke zero has this different flavor it almost tastes like black pepper or something? some kind of zip or zest. while diet coke is def the sweetest. regular coke now (after drinking diet soda for over a decade) or any corn syrup based soda leaves a weird aftertaste that i hate. but when i was younger i hated diet taste! haha
I think I have a mutation in a taste bud or something, but Sucralose is really a prominent and nasty taste to me in anything it’s in. Really frustrating to taste it in otherwise sugary drinks, like some of the Monster flavors.
For reference, I also think cilantro tastes like soap. No clue if that’s an indicator or not.
does drinking things with sucralose make your mouth have an aftertaste like carbonated and sweet vomit? if yes then i think i have the same thing
It’s very distinct. I wouldn’t call it vomit, but it’s a lingering chemical-ey taste.
yes exactly! in another comment i described it as a sweetened and carbonated bathroom potion made by a 6 year old. i shorthand that taste to vomit because it reminds me of how doing that little puke into your mouth after a big meal feels like…
I think they reformulated Coke Zero and got rid of the sucralose. It uses aspartame and acesulfame potassium.
Looks like cherry coke zero.
Coke zero is the best one until you get alcohol involved, then you’re fucking up if you’re not using full fat coke
Though if the plan is to mix coke with that honey jack maybe the booze is sweet enough already
Switching from beer to Coke Zero + rum/vodka for my drinks lost me a little weight. So much better for calorie counting.
That stuff is so cloyingly sweet you’d have to mix it with water to approach something drinkable. A true alcoholic would have a handle of dewars white.
I’ve used it instead of maple syrup on pancakes while camping. I intended it to just end up as a shit joke at my own expense, fucking around for shits and giggles, but it was legitimately sweet enough to work. Which is honestly pretty disgusting.
Mmmmmm boozy pancakes 🤤
A true alcoholic would have there favorite drink. But yea, any alcoholic whos preference is liquor is unlikely to be buying a lower strength flavored jawn. Wish I could remember the name of the one liquorice flavored jawn, the fucking exception. Its the regular 40to45 percent, but was flavored. Dirt cheap. Only wrecked ass elder alchos bought it. Ill remember later.
Worked at the state stores for a couple years.
Also cheap bourbon > cheap scotch. Fight me.
jagermeister 70 proof or 35 percent abv. Commonly thought of as a knock you out liquor but actually pretty modest.
Lol that is the drink i described. Forgive my sleepy morning brain. Thats something I used to drink with the boys when we, well, were looking to not be very mindful of our evening.
What I had meant was Rumple Minz, a peppermint liquor.
Again not to gatekeep being a alcoholic. Genrally they drink whatevers in front of them.
But thats the one flavored liquor they buy by the handful. They were at the cheapest level, a doller a shooter when I worked there.
Honestly probably great for cheap holiday mixed drinks tho.
Probably more because of how easy it is to drink than raw strength… It’s way easier to put away a bunch of 70 proof sweetened liqueur than the same amount of alcohol worth of 80+ proof hard liquor, very easy to not realize how much you’ve had until way too late
Disagree hard. Diet and Zero are sweeter than full fat coke. It comes out more with alcohol.
But if you can taste the coke, doesn’t that mean you don’t have enough alcohol in there?
I think the Jack D is for making bullet proof Jack D
That’s why he got the Kerry gold he’s gonna stir it in there
Gotta make up for all the sugar in the JD honey I guess
Coke zero is divine nectar
It doesn’t even work for dissolving rusted pistons or valves!
Look, I enjoy good butter, too, but are you cooking with it? You probably won’t notice a difference if you switch to a generic.
Double blind test ‘em - fun and enlightening
Given the rest of the grocery list, I think it is unlikely that cooking will be involved.
Everyday, I watch as we stray further from God.
Idk man that Irish butter pretty damn good
I dunno, that looks like the USA and their butter sucks, man. It’s not even yellow, and they sell it in “sticks”. I was so glad to find Kerrygold there.
That’s decent stuff that I use on the regular.
Regular butter for cooking
Kerrygold salted for spreading
'tis the only way
Do people really see kerrygold as a premium option? I haven’t bought butter in a long time, but I always saw kerrygold as overpriced mass market shit.
Well, we’re talking about mass market, supermarket butters in the first place here. Nobody is comparing these to boutique shop butters.
Beyond that, for me personally, I’ve always considered Kerrygold to be a very decent, better than Land O’ Lakes or store brand butter, but I have a preference for either Plugrà or Lurpak in my supermarket-available butter. Finlandia is also very good.
Lol, clearly you haven’t been shopping at budget places in the US. The competition is Land O Lakes, “I can’t believe it’s not butter”, or store brand.
Where are you buying your butter, and what brand?
Well, I’ve been vegan for years, but I usually had this stuff, I think.

Kerrygold is good, but really good butter is on another level.
Good butter straight from a dairy farm is super dangerous though. You can suddenly find yourself standing in your kitchen, no memory of the last 45 minutes, the fridge door open, a greasy knife in your hand, breadcrumbs all over the floor, and half the butter gone. Gotta be careful with that stuff.
I do. I’ve had it on my bagels and it’s noticably tastier than with regular store brand butter. I usually don’t get it because it’s like 4x the price.
The butter is to lube those cans before he slides them in the ol keaster.
I love the juxtaposition of sugar free Coke with sugar added Jack Daniels. Dodging and weaving against diabetes.
Running between the rain drops to not get wet, then diving into the lake.
Running between the rain drops
What did I just watch.
Move like a butterfly, sting like an insulin jab.
It’s the butter that did it for me. That’s fancy butter
Shits good though. Got it for free one time and I thought to myself, shit I should always buy this stuff. And never once have I bought it since because I saw the price tags
I just like the taste of coke zero, ill eat candy/dessert still, save the calories id get out of drinking coke, gotta have some vices or you’ll be an uptight bitch
Coke zero is worse for your health. Artificial sweeteners have pretty bad health effects, especially the one used in coke.
It is heavily suspected of being able to cause, heart issues, and having the counter intuitive effect to actually make your brain want more sugar, because the complete sugar activation mechanism isn’t triggered properly. It is also slightly suspected to cause cancer, although researchers don’t agree at all on this subject.
Uhm, source??
I love how people just feel like artificial sweeteners must be bad for you. They’re okay. Not healthy, but way better than sugar.
Also: Coke can still be kinda unhealthy, other ingredients etc…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspartame
For transparency, here is another page that seems more in favor of Aspartame: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspartame_controversy
Here’s the conclusion of Yuka, which is a lot more on the “alarmist” side: https://help.yuka.io/l/en/article/r2x5e36paq-aspartame (note that the US FDA is considered as really lax compared to some other countries in Europe in terms of additives and health concerns worldwide)
Many studies show that artificial sweeteners doesn’t help with weight loss at all
Having less calories helps? Those ppl they studied likely didnt practice cico and ate more because they thought they saved calories from drinking less soda so they ended up at maintenence or over
If they studied ppl who thought they were drinking regular soda but it was sugar free than youd see wight loss, but they were aware that it was sugar free and 0 calories so they ate more
The links I listed are only about the artificial sweeteners, not sugar-free sodas
But the main thing is: it makes you want more sugar, so you’ll end up consuming more, which doesn’t help or even makes weight regulation worse. You’ll end up getting the calories in a way or another, hopefully from good sources though
Coke zero is worse for your health.
nobody who drinks Coke care for their health.
Diet and sugar-free sodas are all marketing BS. It’s all meant to get one to think it’s “healthy” rather than “less terrible”
I’d agree otherwise, else Coke Zero wouldn’t exist I guess.
Everyone cares for their health, they just think it’s “not that bad”, which it is in a way, but that depends on the level on health and risk you’re willing to have
I’m not a doctor but my understanding of the topic is that it’s pretty clear : any soda is bad.
Sure, a Coke a week, in a cocktail or otherwise, does not matter much but AFAIK people who buy entire packs (as in the photo) drink sodas at every meal and that’s unhealthy over long term, no matter what brand or type of soda it is.
So assuming that’s a well known medical fact and people still do it, then one can say they do NOT care for their health, no?
You prob believe vaping is worse than cigs too
Nope. Vaping is so much better (less bad) than smoking. Combustion sucks.
I suggest you do your research.
it depends, some vapes are indeed worse than most cigs, i think most can agree with both being bad
in what situation is low temp vapor worse than burning smoke and ash in your lungs, ignore the chemicals, which are always better in vapes, even american spirit all natural tobacco have chemicals and aren’t really all natural, tar is always worse
In the situation that you are putting food flavorings in your lungs. Not made to go there… if you’re just vaping pure pg / vg that’s different. Look up popcorn lung for an example of why food flavorings should not be inhaled.
But is the butter salted?
Yes. The unsalted version of that brand has silver packaging
That’s 2 days? Not a big drinker, are you.
Also, Jack Daniel’s? You don’t like real whiskey? You prefer pretend-whiskey lemonade?
I take it the coke is to mix with the Jack, which is acceptable.
If you’re getting a bottle of Blanton’s for a mixed drink I’m going to punch you in the throat.
I’ll take a Pappy and RC cola on the rocks, please
Jack is never acceptable. Also, it’s coke zero. That’s disgusting. Proper single malt whiskey is not for mixing but there’s a lot of average blends which are perfect for whiskey coke.
I am getting $15 dollar 3.5 grams of weed. You are doing it wrongly. Well weed tax but still.
I do have to say, JD Honey is delicious… can easily drink that on the rocks.
Try American Honey, I definitely give it an edge over JD!
Bleh! Try some makers mark straight up or with ice. It’s still sweet without that corn syrup taste
Makers is so insanely overrated. If you’re gonna spend that money anyways, any of these is a huge upgrade from makers:
- Mitchers
- 1792
- Four Roses
- Basil Haydens
Blegh, but then it tastes like makers.
How about four roses small batch instead and we forget the sweet.
Real men drink Old Granddad BiB. As a bonus it will make the best Old Fashioned you will ever have.
Ha, no worries. I have a decent selection I’m currently working on:
That stuff would be about $50 or less total in my area, but I wouldn’t buy any of those but the butter.
You call beer, junkfood and alcohol groceries?
Look at Mr. Fatcat over here. Bet they salt their lentils too!
… you get lentils?
Not from a store!
That would be the um, joke
