Made me think of a song from the 40s, Yamtang Yamtang Rankytang by Norris the Troubadour, remembering when meat wasn’t available for the meal… (At least that’s how I remember the song.)
This reminds me of an old Cathy cartoon where her parents were making the best of not being able to afford to travel by imagining they were journeying around the world through a week of eating international frozen vegetables. As I recall, Cathy accused them of guilt tripping her with their cheerful attitude towards a disappointing lack of vacation.
If you haven’t tried it, don’t knock it. I had it at a Thai place. It is actually really good. Very Asian. It’s also common with adzuki/aduki bean paste.

Can you call the Health Department? Maybe get some Food Inspectors to come by and do some inspecting?
