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.


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.
They liked long pepper and grains of paradise. But I wouldn’t use grains of paradise on pork chops. Cumin and long pepper sounds good.
I did salt and ground cumin on a ham sandwich, it was decent!
