I had a pretty long lunch streak of PBJ, bag of chips, little debbie, and raisins in high school. After a week or two you gotta break it up though

>>15113093
I used to make bone broth out of pork scraps the butcher would give me and drink like a cup a day, I'm just now starting to not get queasy when thinking about pork.

>>15113093
Pinto beans for 6-8 months. Seasoning helped.

>>15113093
I eat an orange, a banana, and a kiwi every day.
I make a big pot of curry one week that does me for ~4 dinners and I make a big pot of bolognese that does me for ~4 dinners the other week.
Other than making my own food everywhere else I eat has the same menu.
I eat the same stuff a lot

>>15113093
I lived off of nothing but 'vark sauce and soylent for three years

>>15113166
How do you live like this? That is incredibly depressing

In highschool I would only eat hot pockets for breakfast and baked chicken tenders or patties for dinner for weeks at a time.

When I moved out and was working at a factory (instead of a cooking job, where I make my breakfast at work) I would eat just a bag of peanuts for breakfast every day for around 6 months.

This past year for breakfast I've pretty much exclusively had an egg sandwich on an onion or everything bagel with some combination of Avocado, cream cheese, pepper jack cheese, bacon, hot sauce, and occasionally sauteed bell peppers.

For me breakfast is a necessity and not a meal I'm looking to enjoy. Now I'm transitioning to overnight oats but I'm not so sure about it.

>>15113093
But you do have to eat this

>>15113200
Also a glass of orange juice every day since I was a boy

>>15113093
I made chili out of a 1 lb roll of jimmy deans breakfast sausage, pinto beans, jalapenos, onions, and bare bones seasonings for years when I was poor. I'm still poor, but I eat better now.

>>15113093
I've eaten the same casserole for lunch every day for 5 years. it consists of rice, beans, tomatoes, cream of mushroom soup, and frozen veggies baked at 350 for 30 minutes. it is bland and disgusting. I hate it

Literally nothing but potatoes, milk, butter and oats and salt for all three meals for close to a year. I've also done chicken breast and rice for dinner for nearly a year straight when I first got married because it's what the wife wanted but I had other food. I like food and cooking quite a bit but I don't need variety to survive just nutrients.

>>15113093
I do bodybuilding/powerlifting so same food for years on end. Just scale calories.

>>15113093
that's literally all I do. 2 months+

>>15113093
when I lived alone I'd make pork butts and then I'd have to eat pulled pork for a whole week. pork tacos, pork nachos, pork pizza, pork sandwiches, sometimes I'd just microwave a bowl of it and eat it with a fork. I got so sick of pulled pork every time but then I'd want to make another pork butt a few months later.

I have a bit of OCD. When I was in college I decided I wanted to perfect making spaghetti and meatballs. I decided to eat it every single say for one year. I did it. I am super good at making it. Still love it

>>15113244
>I wanted to perfect making garbage

>>15113260
I successfully made it taste super duper delicious. I perfected it absolutely after about day 200

>>15113260
fuck you eat a bullet

When I was a kid I went for years eating a peanut butter and grape jelly sandwich for lunch every day. At some point I switched to ham sandwiches and ate those for years.

Before I got married I would make a large pot of something and eat that for a week straight or so until it was gone. But I'd change it up every week and wouldn't loop back to it for quite some time. I wasn't poor per se but I had three jobs and was going to school full time so it was a time thing.

Now I make the same large meals but husbando eats huge man portions and it's gone by the next day.

I didn't take into consideration how much more a man eats than me before taking over the grocery shopping and food budget.

>>15113093
I've eaten a bowl of raisin bran for breakfast every morning for the last two years

>>15113093
pb&j for 3 months out at sea.

>>15113093
I've had only a protein bar for breakfast/lunch for the past 2.5 years. It'll occasionally get old but I just remind myself that eating isn't for pleasure and do something else to feel good instead.

>>15113093
survived off of Sharwoods jalfrezi curry through most of college

two years straight i made my own casserole dubbed the "colon cleanser" and would eat it for lunch at work, sometimes dinner too.

>>15113093
A couple of years with mainly noodles, a certain sandwich, frozen pizza and a custom pizza at my local pizzeria

last 3 weeks of a uni semester before summer break
ran out of mealplan money cause i was always eating late at the campus quikmart store that would sell chicken tenders and sandwiches priced up despite the shit probably getting tossed out anyway
eat nothing but oatmeal for 3 whole weeks
my shits became literal pellets
get headaches and always feel sluggish
when it came time to the final day to move my shit out it was horridly agonizing pain and cramps on my whole body on top of lack of sleep because finals cramping

my diet did improve in the later years when i transfered to another university, healthier even. frozen veggies, baked chickeb breast and white rice for majority of my meals for 4 years.

I once had smoked fish pie on rice for every meal for 3 days, I also had it for dinner the night before.

>>15114434
based smoked fish pie anon, i remember your threads

>>15113228
Replace the rice with pasta, get rid of the beans and replace them with a massive can of tuna, cover with grated cheese and bake.

>>15114446
Based Brit anon. Yeah I gave up sharing, this board is a wasteland. Just come for the shitposting now.

>I don't need variety to survive just nutrients
Your body may survive but your brain will rot. This will also cause early death because the brain and body are connected,. Your stagnant mind and obvious retardation will kill you slowly due to poor communication between mind and body.
When it happens, the doctors will claim it is an unexplainable disease, but thanks to this post, you will know the truth.
>it's what the wife wanted
Your wifelet is also retarded.

Funny you should ask, OP. For the record this food log (I'm on a diet) has been running since 6/9/19. If you added 'omelette' you'd probably run this up beyond 400.

I'm still not tired of it, but I don't fervently enjoy it or anything. I just prefer to meal prep for the week instead of cook daily, especially since I can't make anything good or fancy because aforementioned diet.

>>15113093
I've been eating sesame bagels with peanut butter & a cup of coffee for breakfast for at least 5 years.
I frequently cook a big batch of something and eat it every day for dinner until it's gone, usually 5-7 days.

I used to order about 5 medium pizzas from Domino's and eat them over a week.

>>15113093
I usually eat rice+whatever green is cheapest+whatever meat is cheapest.
I also eat eggs for breakfast, and drink milk to make-up any calories.
Started doing it when I was poor in college, now I'm just used to it.
Keeps grocery expenses down.
I only buy other shit if I'm cooking for someone else.

I usually rotate between about half a dozen fixed menus because keto. I often have the same thing two or three days in a row just because it's easier to do a big batch of something and finish it over time; that way I only cook three or four times a week.

Also, when I was stuck living with my mom after graduation and the economy was in the toilet so I couldn't find a job (thanks Obama), she was a raging bitch and I'd only be able to use the kitchen on weekends when she went over to one of her friend's house for the literally every weekend all weekend party.

I'd do a bunch of baking and roasting, cut everything into portions, and stuff it all into freezer bags, then microwave things out during the week so I'd be able to eat.

>>15115908
what kind

>>15113093
I have at least one ham and cheese sandwich with Branston pickle chutney a day for the past 3 months, still haven't gotten sick of it, Branston is like crack to me.

>>15113093
for 6 months I had tortellini from lidl for lunch with no sauce or cheese and then frozen oven fries for dinner with ketchup. was horribly depressed at the time.

>>15113212
There are no beans in chili. You made beef and bean stew.

>>15117370
eat the beef and bean stew out of my ass

>>15113093
Ham and cabbage for ~3 weeks. Veggie Korma for over a month. Ice cream for 5 days. Pumpkin pie for a week. If I wasn't poor I'd spends years on just sushi.

>>15113093
I eat a bowl of mixed veg and tuna with salt, pepper and a teaspoon of butter every day for lunch for about 3 months now. I absolutely love it.

>>15113093
i used to eat 2 fried eggs on 2 slices of baloney on toast everyday for breakfast, a tuna sandwich for lunch, and ramen kimchi with a poached egg in it everyday for a month when i was poor

I am better than all you im healthier and don't eat breakfast or lunch. Just a large dinner.

>>15118518
This is really the smartest thing. Satisfying, and easy to control.

Anyways, the last time I ate the same thing for weeks was when I was poor as shit. Cup noodles, one a day, for about two months. My body broke down pretty bad. I had no money, and should have gone to a food pantry. I just didn't know how they worked at the time. I felt like because I wasn't homeless, I didn't have the right.

>>15113558
If you were able to keep bread for so long why not keep something more varied?

>>15113093
you could make your own egg fort with all those

>>15118558
Unironically don't be afraid to ask for help if its available to you. There is no shame in it but there is shame in starving yourself or hurting your body because you are too worried about what others think.

>>15113093
potential heir to the egg fort

>>15113093
I ussually eat the same thing all the time. Gone several months with just beef and potatoes but nowadays i eat beans too

I've brought the same thing into lunch at work for like 6 months - Rice and vegetables. I can throw it together in like 15 minutes before I go out the door and most of that time is just waiting for a rice cooker.

>see all these "I ate the same stuff every day for 6 months"
That's the kind of thing I don't get, eating the same food for 3 days annoys me, 6 months is unfathomable

>>15113093
for about a month i went to a sports camp and they fed us 4 meals a day. breakfast and dessert was the same food selection. lunch and dinner was the same food.
every other sunday they let us go into town to do whatever we wanted.

>>15113093

I eat these almost every single night. Have been for years. They're great if you drown them in parmesan.

> omelette for lunch - been doing that everyday for 6-7 months now
> pasta, chicken, peas, broccoli for dinner - been doing that for 2-3 years straight now
It's honestly better than a lot of the shit I get served at restaurants and events

>>15113093
When I first moved out on my own, I lived on eggs, potatoes, and onions for eight months. I'd fry the onions and eggs in a skillet, and nuke the potatoes in the microwave. Saved a lot of money and time.

>>15120631
Yeah it's the bane of my meal prepping. I can make big enough batches to have meals prepared for a week or two, but after a few days in a row of the same meals I start to consider just not eating.

Getting a vacuum sealer was a game changer though. Now I keep a few meals in the fridge then freeze the rest. I usually have 4 or 5 frozen premade meals at any given time so I can give myself at least some selection

>>15113187
Try 5! Years! My breast is growing in quite nice

>>15117314
Excellent taste

>>15120631
In >>15120580 case thats just what I eat for lunch
Dinner changes every 3-4 days and breakfast is usually either what I had for dinner or some fruit and yogurt. I couldn't eat the same thing every day for every meal or I'd want to kill myself

>>15113093
I was really struggling for money and for 3 weeks I only ate hashbrowns on muffin halfs with some brown sauce.
Twice a day.

I've been living off soylent for 2 months straight

For about 3 years I would have the same lunch pretty much every day. Whole wheat turkey sandwich with cheese, a granny smith apple, and a strawberry oikos greek yogurt.

Now I just eat the sandwich.

>>15113203
kek

>>15113114
how fucking poor were you

>>15113093
In college I used to get 20+ mcchicken and chuck em in the freezer for later.
Later I evolved to mcdoubles

>>15113093
Lived of intravenous feeding for 2 years. Does that count?

>>15113260
>>15113287
It is hard to make simple shit really fucking good. thats why people think of it as garbage. Once you have had it done right (very rare) you will realized that all that crap that you thought was garbage was garbage bc it was created as garbage. I want anons secrets (although good red sauce is so much work)

>>15113093
For 6 months I've been eating once a day, six days a week, with 1 day of fasting. The meal is always the same 4 eggs over rice, with some kimchi or sauerkraut. I don't mind the repetition, the process is simple, it tastes good and keeps me going. I do mind how I'm about to not be able afford even this meager meal and how the circumstances that brought about this reality only continue to intensify.

>>15113093
ive eaten scrambled eggs for breakfast everyday for the past probably 10 years, sometimes i'll have some black pudding or rashers with it, and i have anywhere between 2-8 eggs, but always eggs

>>15120645
He should eat that bird, it's probably delicious with that diet.

>>15113093
Not me, but my brother was doing real shitty for a while, and basically his only possession was a popcorn popper. I don't think he ate anything but popcorn (he was stealing kernels) and a little salt for about three weeks. He still won't eat popcorn if we go see a movie or something, it's been like a decade.

>>15113093
I lived for about a year on potatoes and onions. Felt like shit without vitamin supplements.

>>15117286
well, 2 toppings each for the $6/each deal.

I would do like:
bacon jalapeno
sausage peperroni
ham pineapple
chicken bacon
pineapple jalapeno

>>15123145
>8 eggs for breakfast

>>15120678
My god you're greasy.

>>15113128
Basically this, except all kinds of beans with copious amounts of rice.

>>15113093
Mom and I lived on my grandmother's house for ten years and she would cook for us beans every night except sundays. I didn't fart as much as I expected.
She would pressure cook them before noon with other veggies and serve it with rice at night. Kinda miss it now, but she still gives us a big bowl every saturday or so, because we didn't move far.

>>15113480
You know the rules. Also, just get knocked up and you can stop working completely.
