Facts

I wouldnt call it struggle but its def closer to the bottom of the depth chart in terms of meals

When ever the crib was empty or moms didnt have time to cook for real this is what was getting made 

no matter how desolate the fridge and cabinets were a can of this would always magically appear like we had unlimited supply

Just remembered when I was younger I used to eat Ramon Noodles like candy (by choice, we wasn't struggling or nothing).
We didn't have any one day, and my mom's wasn't home to take me to get more. But WHAT WE DID HAVE was leftover spaghetti noodles from dinner the night before and Lawry season salt...
You do the detective work

Now that's a struggle meal :lol:


I can't get mess with eggs and rice but it seems a lot of y'all like that. Seems like an odd combination too me.

When I said that people saying it was very nutritious stock full of protein. All I know is when moms didn't have anything to give me, scrambled eggs and rice was it. :lol:

I never took it for a struggle meal either, I just looked at as a simple dish to make when nobody wanted to do a big cooking thing. LIke on a Friday night or Saturday evening for lunch.

Never heard anyone refer to it as bully beef. This a common canned good amongst Filipinos along with spam and vienna sausage :lol: When your fridge was bare, for some reason there would always be an abundant resource of these canned goods in your cupboard:smokin.

My moms would mess around and put plantains in every other dish it seemed :smh: Had it for the first time when I was young in a beef shank soup called bulalo{easily one of my favorite Filipino dishes} and I swooped it up with my fork thinking it was a yellow potato :lol: had me like

One time i ran out of cereal and had nothing to eat for breakfast so I had to improvise:

Put peanut butter on bread. Rolled like 10 balls out of the bread with PB in the middle and then put them in water acting like it was some Reese's pieces joints.

Bully beef is an old UK term for corned beef - spread to other areas after WW1. It comes from the French bouilli meaning boiled - supposedly some of the tins were labelled "bouilli boeuf" so as soldiers do they called it that.
 
my version of nachos.....
ketchup packets from mcdonalds, canned wiz and saltines
 
anyone ever substitute milk with water when having cereal?

My sophomore year of college, my roommate and I didn't have enough money to be finically cleared.  So we would sleep whenever we go hungry.  We did that for about 2 weeks before we got cleared.  SMH
