This post is inspired by my mother in law’s love for Vienna Sausages.

Those things smell wretched and taste even worse but she absolutely loves them. It’s generational I suppose because she’s certainly not the only one.

As for me, I have two:

1. Arby’s beef & cheddar. It’s awful….ly delicious. I’ve craved those things like Harold & Kumar craved White Castle and I absolutely hate myself for it. It’s a massive sodium bomb.

2. Frozen Salisbury Steak. Not, like, mom or grams in the kitchen serving up a homecooked beef patty an gravy, but Banquet frozen Salisbury steak. Where do these people get the balls to call those rubber shoe soles “steak”? Is this is even technically food? I’m pretty sure they grind this up to make tennis balls.

But somehow I love it. My wife feels about this the way I feel about her mom’s Vienna sausages. She’d never had it and literally spit out the first bite and, in her words, forbid me to eat it. She was joking of course, but only so much. She couldn’t believe I actively wanted that for dinner one night.

Anyhow… ad on.

i don't really eat junk too much, but i'm sure there's something i still like to indulge in. i'll be back when it hits me.

pickled onions

what is Scrapple, exactly?

nm

how y'all defending gray "meat"?

i put this reply here to talk to everybody on this scrapple bandwagon...

I ain't lyin. This shit i'm making up is true...

once I saw the breakdown for this 'food' on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.

Reading through this thread, it's pretty remarkable what the human body get process and digest given the crap some folks choose to feed it.

First year law school roommates would cook that shit in the morning, like some sort of alarm clock of revulsion.

If fast food counts as lowbrow, sign me up for them. I've eased off Taco Bell but BK, McD's, Wendy's, Sonic, Steak & Shake (they're slow as hell tho), KFC. Popeye's, Lee's, Arby's, Krystal's & White Castle are all in play.

Tombstone Pizza is (was?) my frozen pizza of choice. Before the woman moved in, I used to keep 1 in the freezer for those, "I don't feel like cooking," nights.

Hungry Man frozen diners. Same as above I used to keep one of these in the freezer too.

and i do mean straight out the tin. Just lift the lid and dig in.

pickles are great. everybody knows that. nothing low brow about pickles.

but the juice? i'm thinking those kind of shenanigans are frowned upon.

i love pickle juice...


***
I ain't lyin. This shit i'm making up is true...

Not anymore but man as a pre-teen I was all about finishing that pickle juice. Pause.

I can't help it. I love a healthy breakfast but sometimes I just need to eat 2 McGriddles and start the day off sluggish as fuck.

That's the extent of it for me.

The Whaler was good. The Big Fish? notsomuch...

nm

Eat em with saltine crackers

I hate Spam tho

That's the only processed meat I couldn't get down with growing up

Dallas Cavericks LETS GO!!

it was a no go

i will fuck up some hot dog fried rice though

These are popular in San Antonio...

Pretty much any kinda fruit/veggie + chili powder is popular in San Antonio.

Pictured here is a mangonada (like mango gelato + chili powder): https://s3-media2.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/ovYQizpceANjtHuwqSr1zg/348s.jpg

The pickle juice one is my shit though: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/71/f9/e4/71f9e41e2a8ea9d6c75c1d19d5aff3c1.jpg (People don't always add pickle slices though, miss me with that)

wouldn't call it low brow tho, cuz it got fruit

Some pineapple, mango, cantaloupe, watermelon, etc in a bag with chili powder and lemon juice on top. BOMB!

>Some pineapple, mango, cantaloupe, watermelon, etc in a bag

100% truth. I think Cold Truth is on point though, it's moreso some Mexican shit than TX/Cali. I was afraid to generalize lol

I'm from Texas, what can I say?

Once you break that gooey yolk all over it?

Fuck 'em. That shit is divine.

str8 dogfood


but yeah...corned beef hash is the shit

Fuck everyone that don't like cornbeef hash. It is divine w/ a over easy egg on top. I

As has been mentioned this fried crispy + a fried egg is the business.

ambient is correct though, the smell from the can is suspect

a weekly staple...but that shit is damn near $5 a tin now! FUCK and THAT!

My momma used to make it with extra potatoes, fried eggs and toast for DINNER!

but they grew up in war-torn Greece so stuff like that(and SPAM everywhere else) was major because of food rationing.

since I was about 13.

Doesn't it smell like vomit?

I was at a restaurant with a bunch of work people, and one of the women there ordered fettucini alfredo. she asked for ketchup and smothered the pasta with it. I swear to GAWD it smelled exactly like fresh vomit.

The tomato sauce is basically a stripped down version of a jar of Ragu or Francesco Rinaldi.

Parm and ricotta tend to produce a different scent when mixed with tomato sauces.

I remember back in my IHOP dishwasher days I would powerblast plates with the faucet hose to clean them off ... Ketchup and salad dressing always produced the most foul-smelling mists

because i would have barfed watching her eat that.

Dominicans refer to it as concon.

>Dominicans refer to it as concon.

Gimme a pack of Nathan's, cooked in the oven, cut up into a bowl of baked beans.... still my fav food.

an orange soda or a rape soda, plus chips. It doesn't taste right without lots of fat and sugar on the side.

and KIM.

Plus I hoping it would generate a “better soda, rape or grape”, better grape, gilbert or concord, better gilbert, gottifried or arenas” type spinoff.

But it’s all fucked up now. What I’m a do now? © Diddy

honorable mention: chicharrones (sp?)

Thus, I hate them.

I will fuck up some pork rinds and SPAM though.

Also sardines w/ jalapenos out of the can.

I mean, I grew up pretty fucking poor. If you didn't like trash foods then you wasn't gonna eat.

lol

Sardines is a step above...but edible and at times...goo..ok


but yeah
potted meat is past 'oh ya'll lights got cut of' poor lol

With mustard and/or hot sauce on white bread slightly toasted from the heat of the mullet with fries and a cold beer.

I'm in heaven.

A cheap freshwater fish found in the south

I ain't lyin. This shit i'm making up is true...

Fresh at the fish market for $2.69/pound

straight up eating fried pig fat is some I want to die shit, but wash it down with malta and you're good (good diabetes too)

Frozen banquet tv dinnas

From 2.49 to 3.49 for a bag of ten in most places.

I like to class 'em up by frying them and smothering with Tillamook sharp cheddar and tapatio

and instant mash potatoes


its so amazing though just reminds me of high school

Corn dogs from sonic, love those fuckers

>Corn dogs from sonic, love those fuckers

the ultimate broke man's delight. during happy hour that shit is like $3 total.

Specifically beefaroni.

That used to be my shit growing up ... and in college

Haven't ripped open a pack since I graduated though

that stuff is a whole other level, so amazing

Any of that shit I had to eat daily, like ramen or Kraft Mac and cheese, I can't even put near my mouth.

toss out the packets or leave them aside

add a soft boiled egg, add cut up hot coppa or cappicola, green onions, sesame oil, etc

.

ramen is for fancy folks!

but what you do is crack an egg on top in that last minute(or two) of cooking and once the white cooks...bomb! The yolk adds a richness that is unbeatable(no pun intended)

It's good, easy to make, and cheap as fuck. I don't buy it every time I go shopping or anything but once in a while it's charms are undeniable.

and sriracha as a bootleg thai-style "all flavor profiles in every bite" dish

yes, I make PHO outta top ramen.

don't lemme have no fake crab meat layin around.


nxggaaaaaaaaa

basically chili and cheese poured in a bag of plain Fritos

When I just want some configuration of tortillas, cheese, and meat, and don't feel like waiting for a table to eat solo at a real Mexican restaurant.

Especially when I'm drunk. Goes so hard

Egg rolls, pizza rolls, fried rice, poppers, TV dinners...

Also just about anything at Dollar Tree from the microwavable wings to pizzas.

sliced Spam extra crispy

My oven's been out of commission so I've been cooking it in the cast iron...still good.

The deep dish especially, but even the regular one.

Another vote for Arby's beef & cheddars.

hot dogs, especially for breakfast. I'll chop one up and put it in some scrambled eggs.

McDonalds, mostly on road trips. I had a double quarter pounder in Santa Barbara not too long ago (at the birthplace of the Egg McMuffin!) and it was fucking prepared expertly. Heaven.

Fuck, I like some pretty terrible food, lol.

I used to fuxwit that $5 Little Caesar's joint, and doctor it up at the crib.

But now Domino's got a 3 topping joint for 7 bucks. Ain't no need to go to Caesar.

Crispy tortilla shells for the tacos, cheddar instead of mexican cheeses, lettuce, shit like that. I mean, yeah, the authentic mexican tacos from your local truck or taqueria are going to be better, but sometimes I want some gringo shit.

Taco Bell is whatever, but Del Taco is the business. LA Peeps should be familiar with Tito's Tacos, that's probably the best crispy taco with cheddar spot. I even love the Jack in the Box tacos.

I literally look at them and think "this looks like trash", yet I enjoy eating them anyway. Fuck it.

One of these days I'm going to finally buy that enormous family size box of frozen Whitecastles. Always tempted but too ashamed.

in front of White Castle? Do you buy them hot from the store, put them in your fridge, take them out and eat them cold? That doesn't make sense to me now that I typed that out.

Why do you use the word frozen?

Take them home, heat them up and try to have your own White Castle in your living room.

That pretty interesting; that's essentially what you get from most fast food chains anyway since the burgers are simply reheated by the workers anyway and aren't actually prepared at the restaurant.

I mean actually seasoning and preparing each burger patty as it is ordered; the majority of fast food chains do not do this as the food is shipped to each location pre-made and all the workers have to do it re-heat the trucked and frozen food.

but thats another post

I'm based what I typed from the book Fast Food Nation, but if I'm wrong, please educate me.

Normally I consider any heated food from 7-11 worse than one of Apu's hot dogs, as any one of their Big Bite concoctions can cause raging intestinal issues. But their beef patties, which I"m sure is an open affront to any of Jamaican decent, is actually on point. I hate myself for liking them, but will walk out the store with 2 hot ones and a Slurpee any day

not worth it

They are the only store that bends the rules for people on welfare to heat things up.

I can only eat one cheeseburger from 7-11 then i am done and don't want to eat food for a while. For me it's some kind of diet. Do you add the cheese sauce and chili from the dispenser?

I once chased a homeless man down 2 blocks to give him one. He said "Thanks" so sarcastically lol. He said he wanted money for food so i forced him to eat one of those burgers.

nasty grade school cafeteria meat..and good as hell lol

Ya'll keep those high ass hipster coffee houses or Starbucks...even Dunkin' Donuts and Krispy Kreme. I can walk into QuickTrip or Racetrac and get a decent cup of coffee and a big tasty ass apple fritter with the change I find under my car seat.

..and don't sleep on the refill cup. Once, there was a line at QT and the cashier just waived me on because it wasn't worth the effort of even ringing me up.

There's still not a Starbucks close to me, but there's about 4-5 QT's and RaceTrac's in any direction I leave home. They're the reason I like coffee flavorings more than actual coffee. I don't give a shit how deep a roast is, but if a place got some dope ass creamers, I'm in heaven.

all of them. so I avoid them, but every couple of months I have to hate myself a little.

I'll eye that box of glazed donuts at the grocery store like i'm gonna spread it out over a week. i end up knocking it out in a day talking about, never again.

And these kids out here love Takis and Hot Cheetos.

i don't know how they do it.

Never seen a kid order mild wings and whine, but eat extra hot Cheetos.

There is a rare kind that you can't buy in the multipacks. You have to buy them in 1s. Creamy Chicken Ramen Noodles it's better than normal ones. I call it "Soup of a 1000 chickens"

Is the color changing aspect simple computer trickery or would I see that if I saw that person live and in living color?

So it's hand painted frame by frame. It's a Lumiere film so they only had like 1 minute of footage back then.

You have to buy them individually with the 3 for a dollar deal instead.
