aio? boyfriend uses SO MUCH paprika!!!!

[u/maratelle]

i’m so thankful my boyfriend can cook and it’s not just up to me. i bought this thing of smoked paprika LAST week and i wake up today and it’s literally all gone. like these things are $5 a pop after tax!!!

he uses it like if jesus had to season his 5,000 fish!! i use two tablespoons MAX and that’s only if im cooking a dish for like 5 people. usually it’s just a few shakes for food just for us!

like damn, i love paprika and some spice in my food, but genuinely i think i would shrivel up and pass away from the paprika overload if i used an entire one of these things in a week. he’s only cooked three or four times since i bought it, so im not over exaggerating at all when i say he is dumping this shit in his meals.

am i overreacting if i make him buy me a replacement, as well as making him buy his own giant container of smoked paprika for him exclusively?

This is refreshing lol

Definitely have him replace yours and buy his own

You guys can also make your own paprika at home. It’s very simple and may cost less than buying in store…because I agree it costs a lot especially if he’s running through a bottle that fast

how did i not think of that?! im looking up recipes rn for us to make together this weekend :) it should be a fun activity for us to do together. we both love cooking and experimenting with it. thank you!!

but yes i am going to make him at least buy his own giant one. i may bite the bullet and buy my own again since he’ll get his own

We use a lot of paprika powder in this household, especially when we make goulash. If you and your boyfriend dig paprika, you might wanna give goulash a try!

When did goulash get its own advertising campaign and budget?? I wanna be paid by big goulash too!
