    and I thought those 99 cent chicken hotdogs and bread for a bun was roughing it in college. a side dish of some rice and bbq sauce and that was darn near gourmet haha.

    One of my favorite meals as a kid when my folks were poor was potted meat and mustard sandwiches. Enough substance to fill you up and enough flavor to make you not want to eat too much. Saying that was a favorite means there were other things we ate that were uhhh.... not so favorite.
    Time flies when you throw your watch.

    Having grown up during the other great depression aka communism I've eaten most of those items and some others. Boiled chicken feet, pig hooves, chicken brains, chicken liver, blood pudding, pigs ears both raw and deep fried. All sorts of fun stuff. When you're hungry enough you'd be surprised what you can swallow and thrive off of. I kind of miss the ole chicken grease, jalopeno and paprika sandwiches now that I think about it. HMM I may have to double the Lipitor just for thinking about it though.
