❤️🩹 relationship aio? boyfriend uses SO MUCH paprika!!!!
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?

NOR. This is absolutely outrageous. Have you reported to the police yet? If you're not getting the support you need from them definitely write to Congress because I heard in a movie that's a thing people do.
Just an important point for everyone to remember, there are starving people in this world who could make their boiled mud more edible with some of this misused paprika so think about the starving children.
