ghetto canned foods
my roomate and i both found ourselves eating some pretty ghetto food a while back. i had a can of fried dace with soy beans (typical chinese ick fare) with rice and she had vienna sausages (pride of low income americans) in fried rice, which she insisted was a not cheap-o nasty ghetto food. seeing as it's made by the same company that makes "potted meat food product" and you can't tell what type of animal it's made from just by looking at it, i found her point invalid. at 59 cents a can, that's suspect. salty and delicious! the veggies obviously don't come with it.
i eat to live and sometimes... live to eat.
i don't bother blogging about restaurants because there are ppl who do it better. just trying to prove that cheap, sometimes healthy, food can be quick and easy to make (in large quantities or repeated over and over and..) in a land of gut-wrenching instant ramen and unfulfilling frozen dinners. or marvel at the weird things i eat.
comment if you have any tips--i need them!
also, i've recently moved from southern california to the midwest. i started this blog in san diego, continued it briefly in los angeles, and now here i am in iowa...
