Potatoes and onions, corn, inch thick pork chops.

Pork chops were excellent looking managers specials for 6.12 instead of 9 something.

The whole thing would have come up to about $5.50 per person. But a weird thing happened. A while back we went to a store we got maybe four times a year to get something Walmart didn’t have. They handed us a store contest scratch off card. We got home and scratched it off. We won a $100 gift card.

So technically this meal was about negative $40 per person.

We wanted to stock up on freezer friendly meats but that entire freezer was out of commission. Womp womp. Like MacArthur, we will return.

    That poster a few weeks ago who said hes gonna block this community lives rentfree in my head. Because i get him. Nearly everytime i see a picture of this community posted in my feed it just absolutly disgusts me. Holy moly. It dont even know why? Its not high cuisine, but who cares? I’m sure its perfectly fine tasting self cooked food.
    But something about it just breaks me.

    Anyway. Keep it up. This is a nice little community and i could just post my own stuff if really cared. Feel free to delete this comment. But damn, i couldnt stay silent or just ignore it any longer. My poor european tastes are struggling to keep it together with these meals.

      Due to comfort food compliance regulations imposed by my wife I’m only allowed to use salt and pepper or, very rarely, curry powder, on pork chops. This one is just salt and pepper.

        Yesterday I re-learned that Romans didn’t use salt and pepper, they used salt and cumin.

        Going to try that today.

    Any true American food is either microwaved or eaten directly out of a plastic bag!
