Poverty food

[deannalw]

Thank you and me too. We have extra bag of dog food but if he was younger that deer would be in the freezer or canned for the dogs.
People in America have not had to suffer since the Great Depression so most don't know what its like to be hungry.
I'm trying to teach my kids anf grandkids how grow a little food but only one listens. Ahe is also blessed with lots of energy like me. Good thing since she is raising her 4 grandkids, the 4 y.o. is the hard one. He is wired.

I hear ya. I know the Depression actually changed how my grandparents went forward in life. These are hard times for many of us right now, but it doesn't compare to what they went through.

I'm from the Boomer era but was raised by people who thought asking aka begging was the worse, " never a borrower or a beggar be" type.

Even though I has 6 cans of SPAM, this thread makes me wanna do the Polack Special.

Ham n split green peas. Hams are about $20 these days. That's bad.

The peas would only be about $4 and the ham could do 4-5x of ham and peas.

It's "Neither a borrower nor a lender be". Hmm?

The Duke already said it. Or more accurately, Polonius said it first.

What is your favourite cheap meal ? Its a big issue in the UK where times are hard.
We arent quite eating roadkill but prices are up and everyone is making savings.

Roadkill?

I client of mine when I was a personal trainer/nutritionist was a vegan. And by vegan I mean he held a bizarre very strong personal belief that killing animals to eat them is immoral.

That's an extremely tough case to take on as a nutritionist because a totally vegan diet lacks some essential nutrients.

Here in Ohio there is a lot of deer. And he lived off a road where deer get hit and killed by vehicles on the road quite frequently.

I jokingly mentioned to him that if the deer is already dead on the road, you're not killing it, you're simply scavenging it. So why would it be against your religious morals to eat roadkill?

He's been living off of roadkill ever since then.

I could eat it at least twice a week.

Looks like my aunt made up her own phrase. She was always using phrases to teach.

I just saw it.

Ugh- no!

When my little brother and I were kidlins, mom lost her mind and gave us split pea soup for lunch once. Whaaa?

I spent a goodly amount of time sneaking my soup into his soup by the spoonful every time she turned her back.

The green trail of pea soup droplets gave me away and I got a brain duster for my trouble.

If James and I somehow ended up with bowls of split pea soup, I'd do it again.

I think it was the color that messed ya up. I could go for some tonight, but all I have is prime rib steaks and baked potato.

Zero ham and zero split green peas.

Those veg prices are really steep.

Fewer people grow veg at home, rely on shops, and it bites them on the ass.
