The price of beef has come down in this neck of the woods: 900 won for 100 grams of hamburger. Cheap by Korean standards, though still 2-3 times the price of back home.
I have some real cheddar cheese (not made in england, australian) rather than the syntacheese stuff.
You can even get Pepsi AND coke.
So I am eating CHEESEBURGERS! Right now.
Oh, and I found sesame seed buns at Lotte.
Also need a keyboard protector.
And I even found Bud in bottles for 960 won.
Life is good.
How's the price of beef elsewhere? |

I dont like seeds on my buns.
Aussie beef is about 1200 won for 100 g. You must be eating US beef.
Pepsi and Coke? Old news. Pepsi is way cheaper but it sucks ass.
Bud for 1000 won or less? That's normal. |

Wow. Four sentences, each pointedly negative.
To what end? You feel better after spraying piss? Ilsan's soiled your panties, has it?
Yeesh. 
OP, getting everything sorted to enjoy a good burger is a buzz. I've enjoyed that many times myself.
Finding real cheese and proper buns is what makes it, IMO.
Although, a packet of Lipton onion soup mix would take the whole damned thing to another level. |

Real cheddar that is NOT made in England?
ummmm where do you think cheddar cheese comes from, Cheddar Wisconson?
Cheddar cheese is a hard, pale yellow to orange, sharp-tasting cheese originally (and still) made in the English village of Cheddar, in Somerset, England. Cheddar cheese is the most popular cheese in the United Kingdom, accounting for just over 50% of the country's �1.9 billion annual cheese market. Cheddar cheese is quintessentially English, with recorded references since 1661...

To the British and Irish, it's American cheddar that tastes synthetic!! It's so mild and bland.
Try extra-sharp cheddar in England and you'll never rate American cheddar again.................(yes, yes, I know you probably have much better local cheeses in America........but the big supermarket brands are......so-so) |

Who's being negative? Because I don't like Pepsi?
Either the OP is living in an isolated place or he is new here. That was more my point with the 3rd and 4th sentences. The seeds on the bun, thats personal preference.
What's wrong with US beef? The local place doesn't sell ground US beef. Just sayings all.
You're the negative one here dude.

Mine comes from Australia. It's the extra sharp "bitey" Bega stuff. I guess Begas can't be choosers.
You have a problem with that???
It was a miracle to find something labeled "cheddar" that was actually made of cheese. This is Korea, remember?
You don't like stuff not made in England being called "cheddar?" boy, are you in the wrong place. Don't go through the dairy aisle in Korea! It's not even cheese. It's synthacheese.
I don't know whether the chuck is American. I have bought Black Angus American, Australian, and presumably Korean beef recently, all at relatively good prices. I think the U.S. imports may be bringing the overall prices down.
It just amazes me, though, how some people can wax negative about even the simplest of posts.
And in case some of you didn't get the reference, in the subject title, it is to a Saturday Night Live sketch with John Belushi. No Coke, Pepsi. Get it????????
Oh, and, yes, I am living in an isolated place. It is called "Korea." The real thing; not Seoul. And please forgive me if you consider me to be a newbie, and look down your nose at such.
Sometimes I really wonder why I bother with you jerks.
I guess it's because not everyone on Dave's is an immature jerk. Thank goodness. |

Haha! Good for you and the village you live in. Anyone that lives in Seoul is not living in the "real" Korea? That's too funny! |
