Hey chris44
It's obvious that English is not yet your strong point. That's OK.
So - only Germans can make "real good sausages", according to you? Italian salami is passable. What about the Hungarians and Polish?
In Australia, some of used to call sausages "mystery bags". I'm not convinced that anything's changed in that department.
Much of the meat in Lottemart has taken a big nose-dive, IMHO. The so-called "butchers" there have no clue how to cut/prepare meat (they're not alone, of course).
I sometimes wonder who would want to buy some local pork chops that are 50-100 cms thick? Or, as thin as an Oreo biscuit.
I'm also not all that impressed by their imported slabs of lamb/beef from Australia. Must be the cheapest stuff they can import. I've bought some lamb racks there (maybe Rp 250,000/kilo - I forget).
More or less OK.
But, rather than trying to slice them to make lamb chops at home, I got the Lottemart butchers to do it. Walked away to find some ice for my prawns/ice cream - came back and the lamb cuts were about as thin as a couple of pages from the Bali Advertiser! WTF? Saves gas cookin' them, I guess.
And then there's the "local beef" cuts there. I don't know about you, but I don't like seeing dead meat with green tinges on it, plus a few very cold blow-flies. Maybe I should change my sun-glasses.
...after 4 years in bali i close my eyes and eat aroma...
Hard for me to comment about Aroma's products and some others (like Mama's). It's a bit like trying to write a movie review on IMDB and there's no minus stars option.
You gave me food for thought regarding "milk". I avoid the Diamond version - even my dog doesn't like it.
Being a tight-arse at times (or simply
thrifty), I've bought some of their juices, too.
No more - had a few swelling up in the refrigerator before they exploded.
The 15 kg gas bomb in the kitchen worries me enough...
