Personal bests
gollark: My "cooking" basically consists of "cutting and toasting bagels and adding cheesE".
gollark: Which is wrong.
gollark: Unless you constantly eat takeouts or restaurantfood™.
gollark: I think in developed countries, though, your main expenses are probably *not* really food.
gollark: I eat somewhat expensive food like blue cheese, but that's probably right for me too.
