I like it, but for clarification purposes I bought it to mix with vodka. I had a drink at a bar in Biloxi that was lemonade with Absolut Peppar in it and that's what gave me the idea when I saw it on the shelf at Homegoods. It's pretty sweet with just a bit of heat at the end.

$5 for a 2 liter in the late 80s.

That's a hall of fame name for a fast food outlet.


Beef liver was the cheapest meat I could buy at a second rate food store. The cheapest liver however must come from the oldest cows because sometimes it was

so tough you couldn't really chew it.


this is actually a pic of my liver

It's also the best beer to use for basting a turkey. Real talk.

I like your style bro!! People don't know how many things you can put into an 11 cent bang of Ramen.

This thread had some potential

I think I had a lot of plastic bowls that were stained red because I either cooked it too long in the microwave or failed to wash in a timely manner.

I have 3 cans of chef boyardee ravioli on deck!

Back in college, I was broke and regularly ate Thrifty Maid (Winn-Dixie's store brand) Mac and Cheese. They were 6 for a Dollar at the time. Also lived on Ramen.

I used to crush Bagel Bites. I'm not sure how I'm still alive.

Sunday was Jack in the Box tacos- 2 for 99 cents- Not a bad deal. Monday was Kraft Macaroni and Cheese night. Tuesday was Stagg Chili night Wednesday was 39 cent McDonalds hamburgers night- Thursday was Hormel canned tamales night (mucho fiesta) Friday was Ramona bean and cheese burrito night and I always treated myself to an In and Out Double Double on Saturday night.

Hormel Chili loll

id never myself buy that stuff, it but is salvageable in some homemade Chili Cheese fries

if you had to get rid of a can of that stuff

Way back in the day when I was going to school in Hawaii I ate a lot of siamin (Hawaiian ramen) with Saloon Pilot crackers and frozen mahi-mahi steaks.
When I took the bus down to Waikiki to play chess and bridge on the beach I would stop at a Love's Bakery discount outlet and get a box of day old powdered sugar covered donuts for two bucks. The box of ten would only last until I was ready to catch the bus back home. Of course I'm diabetic now, but I still love donuts!

I cycle thru old broke faves on a quarterly basis it seems. Like once every 2 weeks I will have either:

Chili n Kraft MacNChz
Ramens with frozen veggies (peas, corn, beans, carrot ones)
Spaghetti-O's....that horrible sweet sauce is just nostalgic.

beans, rice, pasta

It's the same routine every day. I regain conciousness and lunge towards strategically placed
refrigerators in the villa, chateau or penthouse depending on the season. I then forage amongst
an array of 39 degree imported and local craft beers until I can safely stand.

From there it's just another day
