1960's commodities. Peanut butter and cheese sandwich with a lil mayo and a glass of powdered milk.

If they still made it, I would still eat the Green Giant ‘Create A Meal’- frozen veggies, pucks of frozen seasoning, pasta, just mix with cubed chicken breast. I bet we ate that weekly growing up.
The one I never want to see again? Gordon’s rectangular frozen fish- not the breaded party, just a rectangle of ‘grilled’ and flash frozen fish

I'd eat that until I was full of baloney.

My dad makes killer 7 steaks, my wife had never had it until a couple of years ago.
My dad used to work shift work, when he worked nights my mom would just open a couple of cans of pork and beans and do some burgers on top the stove. I still make that on occasion

I have fond memories of me and my sister sitting on my papaws lap while he sliced commodity cheese with a pear knife for the both of us! Commodity peanut butter on saltine crackers was great, too

I only had fish sticks at school on Fridays. I still have them from time to time.

The kids’ school calls them ‘fish scribblers’- they’re more bread than fish than I remember, but still delicious dipped in ketchup and Tabasco

... First thing in this thread I don't recognize.
What's 7 steak?
Posted on 9/24/22 at 7:51 am to LSUmomma
Cut from the chuck section. Bone shaped like number 7. Tough arse piece of meat that generally requires long slow braising type of cook. Lots of flavor tho.

I generally split time growing up between my house and my grandpas house as thats where I stayed when off of school during the day and after school.
At his house we would do cheese and crackers, beanie weenies, hot dogs on half a piece of bunny bread, and tuna with boiled egg in it for lunch fairly often. He also cooked dinner during the week and we ate when mom got off work. One of his specialties was chili and mac and cheese. Sometimes he would make it homemade but plenty of times it was just a can of hormel and kraft. I still sometimes crave this. He would also do eggs and potatoes which was he would pan fry potatoes to make fries and scramble eggs on top of them. Good shite.
At home mom would get these grilled chicken sandwiches that were in the freezer. I seem to remember it being in a black and green box but IDK. I ate a ton of those along with the regular TV dinner type things.

My grandmother was dutch, and she made a "Dutch salad"... Boiled potato on some lettuce, wilted down with bacon/grease and vinegar, and a little bit of green onion and black pepper .
I'm really not sure when I fully realized we were way down on the poverty scale. Also had butter and jelly sandwiches at my other grandmother's, because it was all home made and there was no peanut butter.

Chicken spaghetti. That baked pasta with chicken, velveeta, etc.

Half a lemon and a little bowl of sugar for dipping the lemon, probably when we were out of anything to snack on and mom was trying to satisfy her whining kids. Buttered bread with a little sugar on it. Beanie weenies. (Despite the nostalgia, I’m not tempted to recreate any of these.)
Fried bologna sandwiches or fried spam sandwiches would tempt me, however. My husband will occasionally still have fried bologna on Evangeline Maid with a can of Campbell’s Vegetable soup. And the soup MUST be the vegetarian vegetable soup.
Dinty Moore beef stew over canned biscuits. In my memory, this was a delicious meal. I’m too afraid to try it again and be disappointed.

Mama would get the canned spaghetti and fix up some ground beef and onions to mix with it. I've found myself doing that every few months.
