When I was in the Army-making $99 a month- at 1 place where I was assigned for a couple of months, after being exposed to the mess hall I bought my meals from the local roach coach
Stop me if I’ve told this story before … oh, wait. You can’t. Then let me proceed. Every Saturday night my Dad would clean out all the leftovers in the Fridge, run them through a grinder, mix it all up, form it into patties, and fry it in a frying pan in a hot puddle of bacon grease. Now, when I say “all the leftovers” that’s exactly what I mean. Beef, pork, poultry, fish, vegetables of all description, fruit, you name it. And the taste? About like you’d think. When I entered a dorm my Freshman year in college and everybody else was complaining about the food, I had no idea why they were complaining.
When I started first grade I brought half a peanut butter sandwich – no jelly – with the crusts cut off for lunch. The same continued until high school when mom insisted that I take a full sandwich with crusts – still no jelly.
When I go to a client I bring – same peanut butter sandwich, no jelly, with crusts to eat in the car while I go there. Before husband quit his job and we started eating lunch at Wendys daily ($3.88 for two of us and I would prefer not to eat there) I would have same peanut butter sandwich, no jelly for lunch daily. If dinner works out odd – husband gets what he wants and I have a peanut butter sandwich – no jelly.
Soo, if someone wants a different lunch than the school offers – they should bring their own.

Loved the Hungarian Goulash and American Chop Suey at school, when I was a kid, those ladies could cook!

What is surprising about Goulash? Brown stuff over Noodles.
