What are some meals designed for poor people that you still find tasty?

A couple of my favorites:
-Rice, eggs, and beans mixed together
-Peanut butter and jelly

The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

Anything that is seasoned was basically made by poor people.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Ramen but not the soup. Cook the blocks like pasta and eat the pasta with the seasoning mixed in. When drunk in college I would slam like 4 at a time (1600 calories).

If you know how to cook it's not very expensive to eat really good.

When I CBA to cook breakfast a good one was like roasted broccoli, sauteed cherry tomatoes, hash brown, eggs and some avocado slices, with ketchup on avo, eggs and hash browns.

Broccoli WAS .98 a bag at Aldi and that is 2-3 portions of broccoli for that meal.

Avocado can be like $1 or $2-3 ish depending on season etc, I only use half on bkfst.

Really good big meal for maybe $3-4ish at most, nutritional, should last you most of the day.

The key to making food really taste good is seasoning and balancing flavors, ketchup is sweet, tomatoes are tart/acid, eggs have a little red pepper flake on them (among other seasonings) which provides heat...
The billionaire and the beggar both have 24 hours in a day.

That's why grandma's apple pie rocks and yours sucks.

Koreans love spam. Goes back to American soldiers bringing over during the Korean War or something.

i got another version of mac n cheese that some of you might like..

you guys know those cans of flaked ham. they go on sale from time to time can get em pretty cheap.

anyway you dont just put it in, but, while youre boiling your noodles, break up the ham in a bowl with a fork, get a frying pan and get some butter sizzling.. fry up the flaked ham in the frying pan. mix it in with your mac n cheese and dont be shy with the pepper

all in all this is like a 2-3 dollar meal..

also, i will usually throw in a slice of cheddar to cheese it up a little
Make misc great again

If anyone's going to waste my time, it's going to be me
