ITT: Cheapest food you have ever eaten
>>683268019
10 lbs rice for $5. was financially a tough last semester.
Gubermint cheese
I lived on $3 a day for several months.
>>683268019
Nothing
Sour cream on white bread
Ketchup with saltine crackers
>>683268019
Not the cheapest but I'd recommend instant ramen noodle sandwiches
you can get up to 3 sandwiches worth of noodle filling per pack and it's not half bad
>>683268019
I ate instant ramen for breakfast,launch and dinner for like 2 month
My fav
>>683268019
Your mom's pussy
I also like this

how were the bowls?
>>683269470
what's that on the toast?
I love potted meat but it's probably the single worst food for you in the world
One 3oz can has 50% of your daily sodium
Spaghetti.
$0.75 16oz box of spaghetti noodles
$1.00 cheap can (not jar] spaghetti sauce
5 days of food for $1.75

fucking nothing.
Ramen potatoes ketchup
>>683269732
I'd splurge at Aldi's and add to this a jar of Parmesan & Romano shaky cheese &
a bag of their frozen meatballs. Their 99-cent meat tomato glass jar sauce is tons better than the canned shit at other places.
Huge bag of cheap pasta, huge bag of frozen mixed vegetables, huge block of butter, huge tub of garlic powder.
I ate pasta with vegetables cooked in garlic butter everyday for years. It cost like 10 quid a week.
Just get potatoes, onions and eggs. Cheap, tasty and rather healthy.
Rice
>>683268019
I have a garden so whatever i eat that comes out of that.
Free coffee at Mcdonalds. 8 cream and 8 sugar.

I don't think cheapest food is correct. ramen are dirt cheap but it's not what you want, I guess. I think you want
>saddest meal you have ever eaten
pretty much the OP without butter. for 3 days in a row. student times were hard times, man. makes your really learn how to (micro-) manage your money
plain, almost plastic noodles with salt
Hot water
I called it soup

>>683271147
That's fine If you can afford those extras. There was a time in my life where i was borderline homeless, a professional couch surfer. I used to give blood plasma for the money and i always knew if i had $2 in my pocket, i could eat for days.
>>683272168
A $1 burger is retard.
>>683272105
sorry, german here.
I cooked up a soup with pic related.
nothing else. hot water and spice
that's pretty sad
>>683269732
I do this with Penne pasta and either Alfredo with cajun seasoning or pasta sauce.
$1.08 for 1lb of pasta
$~1.60 for sauces
A box of pasta is about 3 to 4 meals and a jar of sauce is about 6 to 8 meals or so.

7/11
Buy cup of instant ramen
Use the hotdog fixin' bar to fill up your soup with all the free chili and nacho cheese and tomato and pickles and peppers and onions as you can.
I feel like battered Mars Bars should get a mention here. It's like a meals worth of calories for less than a pound. If you can a afford some chips as well I guarantee you'll be full all day.
>>683272449
that's deep
>>683272231
Still not cheap when you compare how much food you could've gotten instead of that burger.
>>683272319
I was saying "where are the pickled beetroots? It's not labskaus without pickled beetroots."
>>683268019

actually it was not that bad 4/10

if we're talking about calories per pound, i just had 15 chicken nuggets on their own, that pack cost me a pound
>>683272562
It was a rough 6 months
>>683272562
your mum's deep
>>683272403
That would just have the nutritional value of water. Next time, spend the money on a bag of frozen vegetables, boil them to fuck and add some salt and pepper, you can just steal them from a cafe or McDonalds or something, then mash it up. Same cost but actually food.
>>683272696
i was referencing to your typo
>>683268019
I swiped the abandoned rolls after a diner left while working at a restaurant.
>>683272672
Not saying it's the cheapest, just saying it's cheap as fuck. I know some broke-ass people who eat them instead of meals sometimes, just going by what they say.
>>683272791
Could you point it out to me?
>>683272968
you meant seasoning instead of Reasoning
>>683272968
nvm saw it, auto correct and such
>>683272745
I'm not a poor student anymore, but that was cheaper than soup greens. that bag of vegeta lasted for two to three weeks and cost about 2€. soup greens cost 0,80€ per 1,5 liter soup
>>683273111
yeah but the one you're replying to was referencing to calories. you just drank salted water lol
>>683269682
>>683273111
But vegeta doesn't have any calorific value, right? It'd be like living off water.
>>683268019
Top Ramen, back about 15+ years ago when it used to be 10 cents per pack. Lived on it for almost an entire year and added cheese for variety sake when we could afford it...

10lb potatoes for 3$
8p Ramen Noodles that tasted like Ass. Fucking rancid.
I will admit, as a high schooler I jumped in some bandfags car and off to Baltimore to see some other shit band, ended up there for 4 days, with cops looking for me, before Christmas, I litterly survived on shitty cheap half drank beer I found and sprinkles, they were a little shaker full of tiny tiny pink sprinkles. I still remember them to this day. Sitting in the corner of shitty ally way siphoning off little sections of sprinkles from my shaker. And it was fucking delicious and I don't regret it. Some random normie approached me in alleyway mid sprinkle eating, looked at me like he'd seen the face of medusa and litterly backed up, walking completely backwards till he exited alleyway. Going home, got arrested the second I stepped foot in home city. Ended up throwing up in cop car. Went to hospital, had septicemia, was told it was from IV drug use. Still convinced to this day it was from beer & sprinkles, I have not eaten sprinkles since, it's been 9 years.
>>683268019
I made 2 gallons of borshch with like $10 in ingredients. Shit was tasty.
>>683273685
Shit sucks, man. Happy that you're not in that situation any more.
>>683274096
>>683268280
I can beat that. A few months ago I was buying 10 pound bags of potatoes for $0.99 and making nothing but french fries and baked potatoes non stop
Britain's 'cheapest' lunchtime meal was unveiled by scientists on Wednesday - the toast sandwich.

I agree that prepacked vegetables at a supermarket are a rip off, but low quality frozen bags go for next to nothing whole sale. That's the trick to living cheap, accept cheap produce in bulk.

A few weeks. I'm just happy I had a deep fryer so the fries tasted pretty good. But I still got sick of it and haven't made fries since.
>>683275279
>butthurt
Ketchup scread on white bread, very filling
>>683271458
That's what I've been eating for the last 3 days. But I did it by choice. Use a cheese grater on the potato to make hash browns and make fried or scrambled eggs.
That shits cash
>>683275397
true, can't help thinking living off fries is the dream man
>>683274555
>This wastes the trips
I ate eggs and bread 5 days in a row.
4 eggs a day and half of bread.
i spent about 7€ for 5 days.
can't even look chicken in the eyes anymore
>>683275436
oh I think I'm using it correctly. I never bought prepackaged greens, I lived off vegeta. but anon was too stupid/lazy to read the thread.
and getting mad over prepackaged veggies is being butthurt in my book
>>683270217
It's a tomato sauce sandwich, you can't see it very well with another slide on top, also that's butter not mustard
Noodles. Once lived off noodles for several months, local supermarket sells their own brand for about $0.20, would have 2 a day and thats it
>>683274096
I used to eat bulk dried beans rehydrated in water + bulk Mac n cheese or some other bulk soup mix with juicer carrots as a side (way cheaper than regular carrots and not very different) pretty frequently when I was in college
>>683275674
>getting mad
why do you think I was mad? because I used some swear words?
niggah you need to learn that those words can also be used for emphasis, is in you're a complete fucking retard, not just when people are mad.
>>683275690
It looks like a ketchup & mayo sandwich.
>>683275627
Hash browns are great, anon!
>>683275990
nope, that's butter, trust me i'm english.
>>683276085
butter is expensive...

Punk Pizza:
toast with ketchup & strips of cheesefood slices
>>683276021
Fuck yeah. I always just chopped potatoes up into tiny pieces and fry them up until I saw a show on tv where they used a cheese grater then fried it up. It all sticks together and its like 10 times better than mcd hash browns.
And it's cheap as fuck
>>683273782
No money that's why and also probably a college student
>>683276413
there is no benefit of eating ice.
you can only get stomach cold.
>>683276561
For superior hash browns look up the recipe on seriouseats.com
>>683276584
When you spend all your money on sriracha, ice is free so it's a good companion
>>683276475
and you dont always have rice, potatoes and flour? you need to prioritize, nigga. stop wasting butter (especially that fucking much butter) on bread and get a huge bag of rice instead for the money you saved.
>>683274651
Condoms are expensive
>>683268019
slice of bread with a slice of cheese in the microwave. Bread gets soggy as fuck but it actually tastes really nice

Im the one whom you replied to, mayo & ketchup is tasty shit mate, and also it looks more creamy than butter.

I used to eat ramen noodles only but they have no nutritional value so I started cooking up rice with the flavor packs out of ramen, and saving the ramen noodles to be made with beans & chicken.
Rice, beans and chicken. The third world favorite
0.31$ soup

>>683268019
lived off of a flat of disgusting sweet potato canned soup i picked up like 3 years ago and every day after work i'd go and steal pallets and recycling to return so I could buy eggs to fry up before work.
I was working at a moving company while doing this and went from 225 pounds to 165 in 3 months. my boss thought I was on drugs or sick, and even tried to talk to me about it. I felt so weak and sick that whole time.
thankfully i've turned things around. Fuck Vancouver and it's crazy expensiveness. There's no job where employers don't rip off your overtime and delay paying you in this godforsaken place if you're not educated or young. how do you justify screwing around an 18 year old kid that relies entirely upon that paycheque
fuck
I keep it fancy.

Completely true. Ended up almost dying of infection. Was in the hospital for almost two weeks and had to write my will and this tiny little fucking priest would come everyday and give me last rites even though I'm Muslim. I got tons of free holy water n shit. They were first searching for me for being a missing endangered minor & for grand larceny, (I had a previous warrant for stealing 3k worth of gold from store) and when I was finally caught resisting arrest, assault on a police officer (barely), possession of marijuana, possession of heroin, possession of paraphernalia. I was 14/15, this was dec, bday in Jan. I kid you not after the hospital I went to court. My mum (same one who reported me) dressed me up in pale makeup and head scarf, rented heart monitor w/ electrodes. Told the judge I had cancer, she even faked cried "my daughter is so sick she has only so much time and she tries so hard in school" only had to write an essay apologizing for wasting valuable police reasources, mum wrote it for me on road trip to the beach as a "reward".
got a loaf of bread for 5 p once it was a day off so yea

reporting and suing my employer is part of the reason I got a bit ahead, I got a big cheque of backpay and overtime because i saved all of the info.

it is a clock. the numbers represent each facet of men and women, and the cyclical nature of life and death. the 3s at the top and bottom are heaven and hell, the left side is life right now, the right side is this life in reverse. the 2s are women, the 1s and 3s on the right and left side are men.
the 2s are meant to represent the constant nature of women, and the difference between the 1s is "good" men and "bad" men ( in a sexual respect. men who want sex and men who don't).
the numbers are symbolic also for the importance of each gender in their respective lives. on the right side men are more important since they are farther from being similar to heaven and hell ( 1 is farther from 3 than 2), and on the left side since it is this life in reverse the men who were 1s before are now 3s and are identical to heaven and hell and 2s are instead the superior number.
In this life men are better; on the other side women are better. we balance each other out. the 1 that is being pointed to represents me and my being a "good" man because I do not want to enjoy life, but I used to be a "bad" man and I would've been pointed at the lower 1.
