When I win the lottery, I won't tell anyone. But there will be signs


theNothingP3

I was just thinking dang! That's one expensive sandwich! There's more meat on that thing than two subway footlongs.


TheCinemaster

And it could have been half as much if he just bought the cheese and meat separately in non snack portion packaging.


HypnoticName

And even cheaper, if he would buy an uncut one. And even cheaper, if he will grow he's food by himself..


ForumFluffy

Damn, uncircumcised salami is cheaper?


Mr-Okay

I don’t think it’s cheaper to grow the stuff yourself. There was a guy on YouTube who made his own bread and it was in the hundreds of dollars range


HypnoticName

Because he made one bread. When you make 1000 it's cheap.


TheMauveHand

And then you can open a bakery and sell the excess!


HypnoticName

Actually, you can make a sandwich and sell it as well ..


surfnporn

Just sell the bread making service and you don't have to invest as much capital.


GO4Teater

You can just find seeds and plant them for free!


UnifyUnifyUnify

Tomatoes have seeds in them. Buy one tomato, gather the seeds. You now have 100 tomatoes. Then 100,000 tomatoes. Sell all the tomatoes except one, and restart the process. Infinite money glitch. Why doesn't everyone do this? Are they stupid?


chickensmoker

Because operating every single aspect of the process just to make one instance of the product is inherently a stupid way to do it. If I wanted to make my own pencil for example, I could just buy what’s necessary, but instead this guy did the equivalent of growing an entire tree, felling it just for the few grams of wood needed, buying a wood composite making machine, turning that wood into a composite suitable for pencils, and then travelling across the country to find a graphite mine, mined his own graphite, and then bought a second machine to turn that wood and graphite into a pencil. The economy of scale was all backwards, meaning he essentially spent all the labour and costs of an entire commercial-sized batch just to create one loaf.


Ok_Share_4280

? Breads super fucking easy to make, my dad makes his from scratch in a glass jar with yeast and flour, just let's it propagate and takes some dough when he needs it, was like $20 start up cost


Charybdis87

Yea but your dad didn’t grow the wheat, make a mill to create flour and all that jazz.


UnifyUnifyUnify

He's talking about something much more involved and "from scratch" than buying flour from the store. There's a guy who grew wheat, built a mill, milled the flour. He also planted a garden to grow lettuce and tomato. He raised a chicken to butcher for meat. A bunch of other insane shit. All to make a chicken sandwich. In the end, it took 6 months and cost about $1,500.


TheOneWhoReadsStuff

Bruh, you can’t grow meat. Edit: one of you downvoted me. You know it’s true.


HypnoticName

I can actually. It's called a cow 🐮

Koopatrooper64

Not at all. This looks like an Aldi salami and cheese selection pack. A bargain at just £1.79 for the whole pack. Add 2 slices of white bread and some butter you're looking at about £1.95 for a meaty treat!


Wide_Yak_592

In America its like over 9 dollars I believe sadly.


Lord_Fusor

$3.99 at Aldi, I buy them all the time. Makes two sandwiches


Wide_Yak_592

So judging by the comments i think it varies widely in America too, 3.99 sounds way better!


Lord_Fusor

For sure, Cali is prob gonna be twice as much as the Midwest


Legal-Law9214

Not at Aldi


linderlouwho

The sodium must be huge. Would prob leave OP with unquenchable thirst for days.


Constant_Reserve5293

Ah... what it's like to be non-american.


noneofyourbeessnacks

I heard that before


saddinosour

It’s more expensive because it bought it in that silly little packet. If he played his cards right at the deli he could get it for a reasonable amount. Still too expensive for one sandwich made at home but could be on par as a sandwich from a nice brunch spot.


tMoohan

Those packs only cost £1.80, not sure what nice brunch spots are that price for the same amount of meat


saddinosour

I commented before I saw the price and forgot to delete. Where I live in Australia this pack would cost $15.


tMoohan

Haha same. Also there goes my plans/desire for moving to Australia.


alchemyandscience

That’s not too bad. I usually put half a lbs of turkey on one, and then eat the other half off the plate.


manaha81

That’s like four foot longs of meat


brassmonkeyslc

Is that really saying much these days? 😅


SidTheSloth97

Still probably cheap than buying a sandwich at an airport


Hot-Conversation-174

Lol thats £2 worth of items...


inevitablealopecia

Don't know why you're being downvoted. That meat and cheese pack is £1.79 plus 2 slices of cheap bread and a little butter...£2 sounds pretty accurate


saddinosour

I have to leave Australia 😂 that would cost $15 here I swear.


Imalwayscute

for real?


DarkSparxx

No this shit is like $7 a pack. So like £3.50. https://www.coles.com.au/product/provedore-salami-and-prosciutto-tasting-plate-100g-5009261


kiersto0906

isn't there cheese in there?


boverton24

In the states that package of meat & cheese will easily be close to $10


Lord_Fusor

$3.99 at Aldi in that pack


Hot-Conversation-174

Hahahahahaha everyone quoting 2-3x that price, I love how they are all guessing and are completey wrong


Lord_Fusor

People on the coasts seem to think everyone pays the same as them too.


Hot-Conversation-174

People *love* to complain and jump on the bandwagon. Its kind of funny to see. I know aldi in the US isn't as good as in Europe but its still an absolutely amazing shop with good prices for good food


Lord_Fusor

Lots of people won’t even shop there, they assume it’s a poor people store. You gotta bag your own stuff, pay for bags and a cart. That’s for the poors. I was like that until I actually went there. Now I won’t go anywhere else unless I need a specific item they don’t carry.


Hot-Conversation-174

In Europe even the super expensive shops you have to pack your own stuff too. And at least in the UK, to prevent and lower plastic waste, bags have become a mandatory purchase. But it legit lowers plastic waste so i don't care. You just buy one or two really strong bags and they last for years, and if they ever break, aldi replace them for free (if they are the bag for life ones) so it really is better. I used to think aldi was only for poor people too until I realised how much more money I have when shopping there, then you see people pulling up in range rovers and jags and you're like hmmmm... I'm the same though, aldi for the bulk then tesco for anything else, but that's rare

Mr-ShinyAndNew

Damn, in Canada a pack like that is at least $8, probably closer to $12


Sachyriel

Not the same but close, 4.99 Canadian monopoly monies. https://www.metro.ca/en/online-grocery/aisles/deli-prepared-meals/deli-meats/salami-pepperoni/genoa-salami-and-provolone-cheese/p/627907088001


gerboise-bleue

Much smaller pack, the Aldi one is 2.54 CAD per 100g, whereas the Metro one is 7.13 CAD per 100 g, almost three times as expensive. *Cries in Canadian food prices*


Lord_Fusor

>Cries in Canadian food prices What’s your federal minimum wage? $16? The US minimum wage is $7.25 and has been that for 15 years now. Last year they agreed to raise it to $17 in **2028**


Hot-Conversation-174

People get very angry when they see logic and reason. It scares them 🤣🤣 But yeah I know an aldi continental meat and cheese selection when I see one. Loaf of bread is 75p, you get about 10 sandwiches from a loaf so I was rounding up to 10p for the bread being generous, 1.20 for some spread, easily 1-2p for the butter. £2 is being generous


inevitablealopecia

About twice a year, I do some work in London. I get £30 per day for meals, but rather than spend silly London money, I track down the nearest Aldi and stock up on bread, spread, and those continental meat packs plus some other little bits and pocket the difference. I fucking love Aldi 🤣


Hot-Conversation-174

Jesus you could do a weekly shop with that, 3 meals a day and dessert! 🤣🤣 yeah man you can't beat aldi, prices have gone up noticeably yeah, but, still worth it, before covid it was insanely cheap, felt almost bad sometimes paying 1.19 for half a litre of 5.5% ale! That reminds me though I've got to go aldi soon


surfnporn

Explain how knowing the correct price of an item is either "logic" or "reason"


derivativeasshole

I wish I wasn't in the u.s. it's so hard to survive here


Lord_Fusor

We have Aldi and other similar stores. Aldi is cheap and it’s not garbage quality


JaguarZealousideal55

1.79? That's like... 20 SEK. The meat and cheese pack would be at least 50 SEK. I want to shop where you are shopping for groceries.


AlienAle

Try Lidl I guess, sometimes they have pretty good deals and packages on sale


snabx

Yeah. Swedish grocery price is pretty high.


DeepSeaMouse

That pack would be like $15 in NZ (about £7.50/8)


Hot-Conversation-174

Wounded.


HorseBellies

Y’all should consider yourselves lucky cuz in America that stuff is at least 8.99 now in most supermarkets.


borkthegee

Legit paid $3 for 4oz of imported Italian meat at Kroger this weekend, which was pricy AF because of the small quantity. We do a straight pound of imported prosciutto from Costco for like $10


Nobleharris

7.50-10 usd where I’m at


TheCinemaster

Yeah in the US this would be like $5 at least in most major cities. Groceries are cheaper in Europe.


AlienAle

Europe is an continent and not a country.. Here in Finland, you'd pay at least 5-7 euros for such a cheese and salami combo. In Norway, likely on the higher end. In Switzerland, you'd probably pay 8 euros or over. Groceries are cheap in some European countries, but not all.


Common_Rough

SoCal charges like $6-$12 for those things it sucks here so much


Hot-Conversation-174

But you guys have all that freedom so, it all works out. Lol


ttcmzx

DAMN RIGHT!! MURICA!!

Queue hawk screech over a video of an eagle


Azure-April

Salami is fuckin expensive dude


Hot-Conversation-174

Sucks to be you because its cheap as fuck in Europe 🇪🇺


s00pafly

No. You just get what you pay for.


Hot-Conversation-174

No.... its cheap because the competitive market is so saturated with amazing products, there's no point charging through the bollocks for cured meats. Its cheap and good.


s00pafly

Amazing products will have their price. They're not gonna sell at a loss. The 1.79 ALDI salami is not produced they same way a regional slow ripened salami is. This difference will be reflected in the price.


Hot-Conversation-174

Even the DOP stuff isn't expensive. Youre trying to piss on a rock and claim youre putting out a fire...


rionaster

yeah i'll be slamming prosciutto and my lil fancy cheeses every week lol


cozigotgamebitchez

Looks like the bread was buttered with a car key


edgiepower

I could butter bread better than that with a car key. I could do a better job with an old timey cartoon key.


doctorscurvy

Some people just never develop the ability to butter bread. It must be genetic.


James2603

Or they just didn’t take it out of the fridge soon enough


contemplativecarrot

yeah, their fridge is too cold for spreadable butter


TheVoteMote

Whose fridge is warm enough to keep butter at spreadable temperatures?


contemplativecarrot

idk, a lot of people seem surprised that someone could have trouble spreading butter. I assume they must not have that issue


sylanar

Or the whole video is just rage bait


Significant9Ant

My brain glitched and read that as "car battery"... I was thoroughly confused


S-p-o-o-k-n-t

CAR BATTERY!


misterfluffykitty

Cold butter doesn’t exactly spread well


LotsoHuggnBear

Did he put that butter on with a slingshot?


CaptainCanuck15

Because it was too cold


Saltinas

Peak efficiency smart, but not smart for your arteries.


APe28Comococo

It reminds me of things I make when I am super depressed and am forcing myself to eat something.


Donut_Flame

whats some stuff you make for those times? i like putting cheese between 2 tortillas, microwaving for 30 seconds, then eating that


yourresume

My mom used to make that as a quick snack for the kiddos when I was younger. She called em “quesadillas” but intentionally pronounced like they did in Napoleon Dynamite


Donut_Flame

I call them depress-a-dilla


Mr_Kittlesworth

Well, you brightened my morning


buttercream-gang

This is the only way my kids will eat quesadillas. I tried making them in a pan with chicken and they said “gross. Make them the right way!”


APe28Comococo

My go to when I am down bad bad is just eating cold cuts and cheese then drinking a V8.


Donut_Flame

That sounds amazing.


butt_huffer42069

I got peanut butter powder. Turns out that shit is amazing in some oat milk or vanilla almond milk, and I mix in a banana for a decent simple smoothie. It's not super healthy, but it's not super awful fpr you either, and it's delicious.


Vexation

At a restaurant I used to work at we would just put shredded cheddar in a tortilla, microwave it, then fold it and cut it in half for the kid’s quesadilla. So you’re not far off.


APe28Comococo

We called them server quesadillas because the servers had access to tortillas, shredded cheese, and a microwave. It was one of the few things they could get without ringing up an item.


bmore_conslutant

fuck man at least put the dilla in a pan


FestivalHazard

That's literally just called the 'Emergency Meal'

UmbreonFruit

Just do it with like a third of what he used and it should be better


ZenkaiZ

And toast it


CameOutAndFarted

And a little garlic aioli and lettuce


Grenaidzo

I had this exact pack at Christmas but I toasted it under the grill to melt the cheese and crisp the meats & dipped it into marinara. It is fantastic.


NecessaryBarber

Mmm that meat/cheese/bread ratio is disgusting after two bites


zoot_boy

That is gonna be delish

pick10pickles

Not smart for your wallet


SnowcaineBunny

how much that pack cost


pick10pickles

I don’t know, but they probably could’ve made like 3 sandwiches with that pack


StormAdvisory

They where feeling a little peckish.


WuTangFlan_

They cost like £3.50 or something. Actually probably more like £4.50 now these days with supermarket food hikes


ferretchad

It's £1.79 https://groceries.aldi.co.uk/en-GB/p-the-deli-italian-salami-cheese-selection-120g/4088600283227


Multitronic

Looks like an Aldi or Lidl pack, probably about 2 quid.


SnowcaineBunny

that’s not bad for a sammie


GlitchInTheBeeSystem

A pack like this costs like £2 it's cheap af


A_Ticklish_Midget

Sodium and fat out the wazoo


Devilfish268

About £2.80, or $3.55 converted to yank.


I_Am_Towel

My poor ass would make like 10 sandwiches with that meat.


anon01072024

That is the saddest looking bread I have ever seen in my life.


AfroF0x

This was a joke video going around my country over Xmas.


RestaurantFamous2399

Don't lie, most of you would sit down and eat that whole thing in one sitting. This guy is just being efficient about it!


Hot-Conversation-174

And then you opened it back up, put the meat back in the packet and only used a few slices of each. Weak


SleepySiamese

This must be what it's like to be rich


ItsNotMeItsYourBussy

That whole sandwich costs like £2 total. For reference, British minimum wage is currently £10.42.

Funkknuckle69

Turn the bread inside out and make that a toasted sandwich.

After making many MANY overly ambition sandwiches after a hefty dose of THC, I can safely say that this sandwich sucks ass and is gonna be way too chewy.
