1 part mayo, 1 part bacon bits, one part cheetos. mix reasonably. for gaming. lets you just dip, suck the mixture of your fingers. protects your fingers from the cheeto dust, and the sticky mayo coating means you dont need to grip the chip, it just sticks, so no fumbling.

terrible, but i can dip suck faster then a reload in whatever im playing.

We can cook better than you. Period. Is the food overpriced? Sure. But restaurants have to pay for many things beyond just food inventory. You come to us because we make real food, with proper technique, with higher quality equipment, for a better product than you can scrape together.
However, working those hours, even if we love it, saps our energy beyond what you could possibly know. So when we get off work, we do one of two things: eat a cheap meal somewhere else and go to sleep. Or, go out with our fellow chefs/lines and drink and cook with each other until we can keep our eyes open.

Steak, egg and cheese bagels (with added bacon). One time I ate eight of them in one day. Two in one sitting on the way to work, two more just before arriving at work. Then two after leaving work, and finally two more just before arriving back at home. I tire of most food pretty quickly. I don't eat burgers or even steaks anymore, even though I used to love them. But this is the one thing that never ever seems to get old. It's some sort of sorcery, I swear.

They taste completely bland and are in a heavy chicken broth that will turn to gelatin if cool. 7.5/10, moderately underrated food.

Not really one specific recipe but ive been doing things to classic food that would give hipsters a hard on. I recently mixed 80% chuck with finely diced zucchini, minced onion garlic and a jalepeno and chopped spinach. Mixed with an egg to bind. Then i grilled them over charcoal and had them on flatbread with a side of corn salsa and red pepper aoli.
Help me /ck/. I'm turning gay and I have a wife and daughter.

You might be on to something. Mine is everything bagels with garden cream cheese and a split seared hot dog and hot sauce. Its disgusting to even type but I'll be fucked if it's not absolutely delicious. I'll even slap an over easy egg if I'm really hungry and hungover.

kinda related, any of yall grow up poor or with shiddy immigrant parents thinking things that were not acceptable meals were acceptable meals? my mom used to stir like a tablespoon of sour cream into a bowl of rice with a bit of salt and crack some pepper on top and bam, dinner. or a can of diced tomatoes heated up with salt, pepper and chili flake served with sour cream and toast. if it werent for enriched rice, butter and sour cream i probably would have died of rickets before 12

chocolate powder (the sweet kind, not straight cacao powder)
It actually hurts after a while because it's so dry, so I've started to put fruit in to lessen the impact.

These literally tastes exactly the same as hotdogs and I challenge you to find different results

Even if they managed to replicate the taste and texture of the meat, they wouldn't have the casing.

I grew up pretty poor and these were my favorite go-to snacks. I love them. I know they're terrible for my health and have enough sodium to preserve a mummy, but they are reliable and portable for camping and shit and hit right when I'm in the mood for them.

I experimented with other types of canned meat and enjoy a spam sandwich or spam-mabushi on occasion, but I've really taken a liking to liverwurst and onion sandwiches!

I also experimented with russian and german sausages and found types of what is called "pashtet" (pate) that are also really good. I suppose this taste for cheap meats started with good ol' "vieenie weenies" in a can.

Pasztet on sourdough is great with sour pickles (ogórki kiszone). Try it if you haven't yet.
