I used to eat those little microwave silver dollar pancakes like every single day. Cardboard and sadness in a childhood-shaped mold those were.

What did you eat out of the garbage? Was it like a Freeganism thing where you just happened to see a really nice cake that was a day past it's sell-by date?

Was it like a Freeganism thing where you just happened to see a really nice cake that was a day past it's sell-by date? Nope. My student loans were set to come in and my school never authenticated my enrollment, so they didn't come until October. Meanwhile, my ex unwittingly forgot to check off a box online for his student loans and lost his job a little bit before that, so all our savings went to rent and textbooks. We were saved by him finding a box of nearly expired canned beans, but once we went through those, we had nothing and both were too proud to ask for money from anyone. Flash forward, two weeks into school. Someone takes one bite out of a sausage and egg McMuffin and tosses it into the garbage. We stare at each other and he lunges into the garbage and we reluctantly share the sandwich. Two days later my loans came in, and so did the first paycheque from my job, so we ate "Japanese poutine" which is just as weird as it sounds.

Hey, that's all very poor student living kinda stuff, almost something to be proud of. Personally I've always been too much of a glutton to not ask people for help when life has gone south.

Dude, things can get ugly. I've eaten garbage food before. I also ate cat food. Not for the hell of it, but because I was legit hungry and there was nothing else to eat. Same with drinking pepto bismol. For fun, I used to freeze chewed gum in a mug of water, chip it out with a spoon, then chew it again until it was thawed then start the whole game over again. I can't say I had the best childhood but I'll be damned if I don't have interesting stories now.

I'm so so sorry, I really tried not to seem like a raccoon Maybe I'm just too privileged, but even at my lowest I saved and bought 20 lbs of rice for $14 and a fuckload of raw beans for cheap as hell and just ate that and mixed in whatever spices/sauces I had left and stole hot sauce/ketchup from fast food places. It's great for keeping you alive, but after a certain point you don't even want to chew and would prefer a liquid slurry you could gulp down in 5 seconds just to get past it.

cash crab posted:(also I feel like whole baby carrots needs to be added to the Bingo) As a recovering fatass, I can defiantly attest that baby carrots are the lowest hanging fruit of the vegetable kingdom. They come ready to eat in little bags, require no prep or additions, and eating a handful of them along with your 32oz soda and double cheese burger makes you feel like a marginally less awful person.

Carrots also have a lot of sugar in them, making them pretty unhealthy compared to other vegetables. Because of this, don't feed your pet rabbit carrots. That's basically the equivalent of eating a king sized candy bar everyday.

bunnyofdoom posted:Agree. Instead feed rabbits leafy greens like spinach or kale. Rabbits are hipsters Also, their lovely pellet food. And dandelion leaves, which they seem to like. My last rabbit didn't care much for carrots, weirdly enough. We gave him one once because we figured he might like a treat and he made that weird little squishy face. Weird how he's got better sense than 90% of adults on Instagram. On that note, I'm sure having more sugar doesn't make them "unhealthy". Sugar doesn't necessarily make a food bad. Like, an apple has more sugar than pork rinds, it doesn't mean pork rinds are a better snack. Meanwhile, rice cakes have virtually no sugar or fat, but they're lovely snacks because your body needs like, actual stuff to operate. IDK. I don't worry about what I'm eating and just work out a lot and it seems to balance out, but if I die before the rest of you I'm sure my face will be red.

Yeah, carrots are awesome. They have more sugar than most vegetables, but more than almost zero still isn't much. I only use them as an example of the fattie's go-to feelgood food because baby carrots especially are so drat easy to cram in face with little or no thought.

I ate Pupperoni a few times as a kid, voluntarily [I mean we were poor, but we ate human food all the time] and it was pretty good actually! Still occasionally get the urge but I can afford regular jerky and there's less stigma in that

My mom used to make dried liver for our dogs and me and my dad would literally drive to Montana just to get away from the smell. Naturally, my current neighbour produces "natural" dog treats like duck feet and liver jerky. As a living AUG post, whenever he sees a pretty female guest we have over he can't help but jab them with a duck foot. Good times.

"Baby carrots" are a thing though, you can grow hosed up dwarf carrots that won't grow more than a couple inches long. You guys are talking about baby-cut carrots.

You can get poo poo like deviled ham for a pretty negligible amount more than cat food and it's at least made for human consumption. Deviled ham is pretty anti-food porn but I like it sometimes even if it is salty as gently caress. You can get like 3-4 sandwiches out of one of those little cans, too. My parents both grew up pretty poor and couldn't cook for poo poo until very recently so I ate a lot of terrible food as a kid.
