Nice viral marketing campaign. Why are the products from competitors turned away?
Who is buying pancake mix? My brother in Christ, that is flour, sugar and baking soda.
I have thought that so many times when I see these flour mixes. like bro you can literally make your own premix and I would assume you save a lot of money doing so
Here its legit cheaper than making it yourself unless you’re buying in bulk.
I mean by buying every ingredient yeah, but if you consider the amount of sugar, salt and baking powder you need which most peoplenown and use anyway it’s soo much cheaper to just flour and mix that stuff in it. here cheapest flours are 0,90€ while pancake mix is over 3€. the rest of the stuff you add there costs almsot nothing if you consider how little you need them. like maybe 1€ total
if you however have to buy every ingredient for the mix it costs like 4€ here.
But I also have to mix that with eggs and milk. The mix is just add water and there’s no difference in taste or texture. Why do extra work when you get the same results with less?
I prefer to have some ingredients that are more flexible over having a specialized product that only makes few things or just one thing.
I do like to bake and I cook a fair amount, so ingredients like flour, baking soda, baking powder, and sugar go far in my household.
Sometimes my family needs to go on special diets and having more control over what goes into my food helps a lot. (That low FODMAP diet was a bitch.)
But that’s just my situation. These types of mixes save a lot of time and effort. Can’t really knock that.
It’s “buttermilk” just add water, so I suspect there’s some dairy flavoring of some kind in there.
EDIT: Yea, it’s flour, sugar, a leavener, starch, salt, a bit of soybean oil, some dehydrated egg whites, and dehydrated buttermilk
I wish there was a store with all sorts of food additives the regular person doesn’t have access to, like dehydrated buttermilk, or whatever artificial and natural flavors is.
The internet has that at least?

For egg whites, it’s not too bad to make them yourself with a dehydrator.
Fuck it let’s make our own pancake party, with crepes and waffles!
This stuff will make decent waffles but shitty crepes. It’s self-raising so it’ll puff up when made into batter.
If this is only “decent” waffles, what mix do you recommend for excellent waffles?
It’s a Party in the DnD sense. Gotta have enough pancakes for the Cleric, the Barbarian, the Bard, and the Paladin.
Check out any small town fire department on July 4th.
It’s dozens of those bags in the kitchen and hundreds of boxes of scrambled egg goo.
