So Kamala likes good cookware. ($375 isn't all that expensive) Was it her money? Yes? Well fuck off then. Fucking cheek, trying to shame a person for not acting poor when she isn't.

It would be news if she spent $375.00 on pot.

France is interesting when comes to pot. It suffers the paradox of having a thriving pot industry and the highest usage in western Europe while having the harshest pot laws in Europe.

I love high end Kitchen thingies shops. Bought things from one only about 10 miles away. Couldn't get them at Kmart. Eg: a ricer, candy thermometer a jar key and an olive deseeder. (does cherries too) Also a set of very good pans. I think they were around $500 for the set. Still have all but one. I burned the base.

I bought an awesome new German Steel Knife Set recently got it on sale for about $200 and got a pretty good Wok set for about $150.

Not a paradox at all. Telling people they can't something always increases its consumption. Always, always, always.

I bought an awesome new German Steel Knife Set recently got it on sale for about $200 and got a pretty good Wok set for about $150.
I recently got conned-ish.
Bought a set of Baccarat knives. At the new kitchen shop. Opening special. Reduced from $799 to $399. Double ticketing is illegal in Australia. Some manufacturers put out gear with an inflated RRP, at which the product is seldom if ever sold.
After the fact, I know, but I looked online; Amazon have the same knives, at the same price as do most sellers on Ebay. A few sellers on Ebay are actually advertising the knives at the higher RRP of $799. So I may not in fact have been cheated. But I fell as if I have.
Oh, the knives are actually pretty good. Made of high quality steel, not stainless steel. Wicked sharp. Sliced myself taking them out of the box and once again when I was dicing something and not paying attention. Very clean cuts which healed quickly leaving no scars.
Still very sharp after over 3 months and almost daily use. I have steel to sharpen them, but may use a whetstone.
