Moms always made the dollar stretch
- Tortillas, we always had an hoya (large pot) full of beans = burritos, and tostadas.

- Instant coffee or Kool-Aid (sweetened with sugar packets from the local restaurant)

- Hard boiled eggs with salt

- Quesadillas with mexican cheese

- Grilled cheese, or fried bologna sammys

- French toast with jelly and peanut butter (no syrup)

- Toasty O's when we had milk

- Cream of wheat

- Caldo, a potato and corn stew very bland, sometimes we'd have a soup bone, with more marrow than meat,in it for flavor.

- mac and cheese with hot dogs and catsup (cheap ketchup)

- Raw Ramen, I would eat it crunchy

The purchase of our first microwave was a step up in culinary delites...

- hot Slim Jims (off the ice cream truck)

- Of course I cannot forget sunday meals after church, menudo and tacos.

BTW due to my mothers frugelness she put herself through school and is now a Professor of spanish languages, and latin cultures. Sorry to get all emotional and shit, this post brought up some memories.

Since we are getting fancy in our poverty...

Egg on top of canned corned beef hash on top of a piece of toast...

Tortilla chips fried with eggs and salsa (known as chilequiles...)

Microwaved sugar daddies and water (I ate that for 2 days straight, before I went to the blood bank and earned $15 bucks.)

Weenie Ramen (ramen with hot dogs, sliced "wahfer thin", water drained out)

Ramen with an egg poached inside.

Ramen or Mac and Cheese with Land o Frost wafer sliced deli meats mixed in.

I'm still eating toasts ... that's pretty much it.

I guess I could afford better food but I simply can't cook.

GTS Mark · 02-18-2004, 09:59 PM

When I used to work in downtown Toronto (pre-porn) my budget for food was like $3-4 a day and money all around was very tight.

I would get buns, sandwich meat, sometimes cheese, fruit and yogurt for all under $3. This would totally fill me up and was actually quite tasty!

When I got home I would 99% of the time have rice and some chicken breasts (if I could afford it).

I moved out when I was 16. I lived off of cans of corn and ramen noodles for about two years, then I discovered this biz. Now I eat a whole lot better.

Top Ramen ($0.25) a pack! But shit I still eat that, and I'm not poor!

i just bought some ramen for $0.14 a pack the other day. i just bought a case because i didnt want to bother getting a shopping cart lol. funny thing is it only came to like under $5 and will probably last me over a year.

wdsguy · 02-18-2004, 10:53 PM

alot of pasta and I buy in bulk

sicone · 02-18-2004, 11:01 PM

When I lived with Singapura, she would make onion fried rice - just like she had when growing up so poor they couldn't afford mud pies to play with...

Rictor · 02-18-2004, 11:43 PM

Heh. I have low class tastes. I like Ramen noodles but I'm too lazy to boil them. I'll buy the ones that you can nuke in a cup. Not really a money saver, since they cost more than a regular can of soup. I guess I make a bad poor person.

Homegrownvideo · 02-18-2004, 11:52 PM

Top Ramen rocks on a budget.

Boil, and about 20-30 seconds before it's done, toss in a egg, and stir it up.

I tossed in some chopped up green onion too. Here is a tip, cut up a batch of green onion, and then toss all of the unused into a container in the freezer. The stuff lasts this way, so you have it around for the next Ramen day.

wifedesigns · 02-18-2004, 11:58 PM

Rice and beans (buy dry beans of all kinds in the bag, no canned)

Homemade flour tortillas. Homemade pizza, Homemade bread.
Homemade tamales (for divine breakfasts washed down with coffee)

Lots of potatoes (baked potatoes, homemade french fries, hashbrowns, mashed potatoes)

Eggs. (Egg salad sandwiches, omelettes, scrambled eggs, eggs over easy, eggs over rice, fried rice)
Spaghetti (w/tomato sauce, garlic and olive oil, carbonara)
Grilled cheese sandwiches.

Tea and coffee, Eau d' Faucet

Grew my own salsa garden, too.

WARNING: Be sure to walk five miles a day and do Pilates or Yoga three days a week (get a book at the library don't pay for $200 a session class) so you won't gain a pound on this "survival" diet.

One time I had nothing to eat but a box of cereal and no milk. I was so hungry I added water to the cereal, I started eating it but just couldn't finish. That was some NASTY tasting shit!

Toast with sugar sprinkled on it, chicken noodle soup and mac & cheese...with and without cut up hotdogs in it.

gawd...back in my college days, I lived on Ramen Noodles 100%, and even got creative with it:
ramen w/ cajun spices
ramen w/ spaghetti sauce
ramen w/ melted cheese
ramen w/ egg
ramen w/ butter sauce
ramen w/ white cream sauce
ramen w/ soy sauce
ramen w/ red beans
...

Needless to say, I got pretty burnt out on the Ramen noodle front...although, they do taste good so I occasionally boil up a pack for old times sake.
