    In Argentina, locals are taking loans to buy food

    You have completely ignored my previous post. You are attributing feelings to which I have clearly stated are not my own or others in the previous posts.

    In Argentina, locals are taking loans to buy food

    I'm not sure what you are referring to. I don't think anyone here is happy with the unfortunate situation going on for people. But do you think 80+ years of governments borrowing and either defaulting or printing can be reversed without some tough times? It is notable that in the article it is...

    1) I didn't say that soy protein isolates are dairy, I said they are serving the purpose that milk powder is used for which is to act as a binder in sausages contributing to the texture you may be more familiar with from the US or other places. 2) Nitrite is a chemical compound. It doesn't...

    Do the same thing and expect different results is the definition of insanity. They don't appear to be doing the same thing now though. Again, you might believe what you hear in the news or social media about protests, but the fact is those are minorities of the population, hence the electoral...

    You have thus far just stated opinions. The market and facts of what is taking place counters again opinions you are raising. Why not participate in good faith and use examples to try and educate us because we are all not understanding this. Can you provide examples. Like an other has said, all...

    Chorizo opinions

    I'm not sure how much space you have, but a Kamado or an Ugly Drum Smoker or Weber Kettle/Smokey Mountain style can fit and work well on a balcony. In terms of casings I can get 38/40 locally from a shop that sells them buy the ring or so. Otherwise, there is a place I can order 34/36...

    I have deleted most of your quote due to character limits on posting. 1) The devaluation of the dollar absolutely has an impact on the value to Argentinian pesos. The relative strength of different economies is representative in the relative differences in the exchange rate over the last year...

    Chorizo opinions

    soy protein isolates is likely just fat free milk powder which is added as a binder and typical in many sausages. There is nothing wrong with nitrites. They will add to typical flavours and also depending on process of preparation required to prevent botulism risks. Especially when they can be...

    Is it possible to get medical insurance without a DNI?

    OSDE is great. If you get it through an employer plan then I don't think preexisting conditions matter, but if you get it off the street I think you do have to go through a medical. I think the only different between the 2XX plan and the higher plans, is primarily the number of units of plastic...

    Try and see if there is a local shop that imports coffee and roasts it themselves. I don't live in BA, but there is a local place that has good Brazilian and Colombian beans, and they roast it here, I think it is in the 36-41k per kg and they will grind it if you like to whatever fineness...

    When Milei won in August I think the peso spiked up to 700-800 range on the Blue Market, and then when he actually one it spiked up to 1100. Captains of industry and many of the economic consultants highlighted what would be required for dollarization of the economy prior to the electrions...
