Bread and butter or bread and jelly, with a glass of milk for me. I can eat that when almost anything else is yucky to me.
Here’s a song for all of us - Larry Groce, “Junk Food Junkie.” 
I have not, so…thanks? 
I don’t even think there’s an Arby’s anywhere near me, which is a good thing.
There are a lot of things I will eat, organ meats, etc, but your choice is the thread winner, imo.
Anyone that can stomach a combo of “mechanically seperated” beef, pork and chicken is a better person than I.
imagines the “mechanical seperation” process as a a bunch of greasy picking machines scraping the leftover cartialage from joint sections of bony carcasses, topped with whatever can be squegeed off the cutting room floor
Shudder.
My entry would be Nishiki rice with a lot of butter and a dash of salt. So plain, so filling…I loves me some clumping rice.
Don’t forget the curly fries!
mmmm beef on wick … spiedies … white hots … real buffalo wings.
On one hand it has sucked being me, telecommuting from the rochester ny area waiting for my dad to either get well or die … [he died tuesday, now we are doing the legal crap]
on the other hand - beef on wick, spiedies, wings and white hots…and with the funeral this past weekend, all last week the food fairies had been making regular deliveries to the house. My god, we have 2 fridges full of food…and Otakuluki and mrAru and I went to see Wall-E and Hellboy 2 …
I like most everything mentioned in this thread and I had a recent experience that I’ll share with one of my favorite low end foods.
Hush Puppies, the fried balls of cornbread, from Long John Silvers. The bastards sell 12 of them for like a $1.20. Saturday I bought two of those for a total of 24. And that is what I had for lunch. My innards are just now starting to recover but it was worth it.
Don’t be silly, that’s not how they do it. It’s like this :
Mmmmmm…meat goo…
Hormel “tamales” --love 'em with cheese and sour cream. The sauce glows in the dark.
Which Jerry Springer episode were you on?
Yeah, and remember there’s no such thing as a tuna-flaking machine . . .
White bread, cold sliced chicken, slathered with Miracle Whip and lots of salt and pepper. Divine.
OTOH, my boys had chums over and I fixed weiners and beans for them and the visitors had NEVER had beans. Never had beans? I wonder if they are really Earth-boys. They could be alien imposters. Jeez. I mean, what kid hasn’t had beans? These guys wouldn’t eat them, so it was PB and jelly. At least they were familiar with PB and jelly.
Years ago, I was chatting with a neighbor, and mentioned something about making beans. I don’t remember what exactly, could have been anything from “Cheap Groceries R Us has a sale” to a overstrong onion to the merits of hamhocks v. side pork. Anyway, she commenced to panicked blinking, and changed the subject. The next morning, there was a bag of groceries (tuna, noodles, oatmeal, canned soup, nonperishable staple stuff) on our front porch.
A good half hour of “WTF?” and two cups of coffee later, it dawned on me! After carefully and delicately explaining to my neighbor that some non-southern, not-poverty-stricken, gringos actually like beans, we agreed to donate the “donation” to the local food bank.
When I mentioned the incident to my mother, she said almost exactly the same thing had happened to her 30 years earlier.
Quite a few people just don’t know beans, I guess. 
Bloody Vikings!
:eek:
For the luvva pete!
Well, I guess I thought everyone ate beans. The English are awfully fond of beans on toast, I know. And they seem to be a side dish at every BBQ and pot luck supper. My sons had them most Saturdays for lunch, with or without weiners, in special little crockery bowls that they treasure to this day.
I like beans myself. Now and again I have beans for lunch, with buttered white bread. I have made Boston-style baked beans many times over the years and I’ve made fancy cassoulets, as well. Beans is beans. Wonderful white bean chowder made with navy beans, bacon, and heavy cream: more delicious than you can imagine.
I think I might just write a Haiku about beans. They deserve acclaim and praise.
He probably did, but in his house it was only fed to the kitties.
Plain cold bland white potato(e) salad is low end. Hot German red potato salad, with the mustard, vinegar 'n’at, is a damn sight classier.
My high school made the best nachos ever. Generic corn chips, cheese (possibly fake cheese), watery-ish salsa (good for me because I don’t like it too hot) and lots of sour cream. What really made it wonderful, though, was the big helpings of Government Ground Beef that came with it. This being ground beef issued by one of the most overwhelmed school districts in the country (Clark County), I don’t even want to know what was in it, but I could eat it by the spoonful. It was greasy, sweet-tasting, and absolutely delicious.
Another vote for Spam, except I use Spam Lite.
Cheap off-brand vanilla ice cream, any kind, pref. the sort in a flimsy paper container.
Also love Underwood Deviled Ham and Deviled Chicken. Straight out of the little can or on lo-carb crackers or bread.
Tomato sandwiches with tons of mayonnaise, NoSalt and pepper.
Vienna sausages cooked with rice. I make a damn good recipe, cheap, and fills me up (can’t find my post).
Beans are good too… I didn’t understand when I was a kid why beans were rarely showcased in cooking shows… and not only that, but when they were, the people talked about soaking the beans…
Huh? They hadn’t heard of canned beans?
Rice-a-roni, the San Francisco treat!! By itself or with anything added. Life’s good.
My condolences, aruvgan. I can’t contribute any comfort food, though. I don’t know how to mail buffalo wings and I don’t have any idea what the rest of that stuff even is!
