What do you eat in times of extreme poverty?

2024-03-25 at 3:44 AM UTCI was a cunt hair away from being homeless one time, these are the meals I made:
- Pasta with tomato paste and herbs - around 40 cents per meal
This is pretty tolerable over a few weeks if you switch up the herbs and spices, adding chili helps a lot with feeling like you had a hella meal.
- Rice and 'soup mix' (mix of dried lentils, chickpeas, barley etc) - around 20 cents per meal
Probably the most filling meal compared to price, but it gets old quick. If you can afford it, the rice is greatly improved by adding tomato paste and wine to the water in which it simmers.
- Literally just frying flour, salt and water - around 5 cents per meal
This is better than starving, just try to think of civilians during the Korean and Vietnam wars who had to resort to boiling grass and tree bark to survive. Add herbs to the mix before frying to keep the gun out of your mouth for an extra few days. -

2024-03-25 at 4:08 AM UTCI used to steal a lot of food when I was homeless, lots of beef jerky.
The dollar menu at tacobell was my equivalent of a t-bone steak dinner. I would get 2 of the 1$ beef burritos, and take ALL of the hot and mild sauce. I would take the buckets and literally dump them into my laptop bag so that I had something to season food with. Pretty damn good, too.
As for meals, I used to whip up 5 servings of black beans, rice, and whatever meat I could get my hands on, if any. I would make 5 meals all at once and eat them throughout the week.
I also used to forage for greens, such as dandelions and curly dock, and eat them raw.
Used to also eat tuna and soup out of the can. Quick and easy.
Also, for a summer when I my family was broke out of their asses, I would catch, fillet, and cook crappie and eat them. Probably did this 10 or 15 times over the summer, I must've eaten like 40 or 50 crappie that summer.
When I was little, during the 08 crisis, I would dig food out of garbage cans. Even though most of my classmates where as poor or more poor than I was, they would still throw away bread crust, apple cores, etc. That was my lunch for quite some time before a teacher caught me.
Most of those meals consisted of pear/apple cores, bread crusts, and if I got lucky, a few crackers or a half eaten piece of pizza that someone didn't want.
There is food all around, especially if you're in a city. if you are poor, you just have to be smart about how you get it.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2024-03-25 at 4:23 AM UTCmy nigga ramen noodles have gotten me through some hard spots in life, peanut butter.
IDK if you all are too high and mighty to steal but I sure as fuck am not,
when I'm doing bad I steal the most calories dense thing I can; blocks of cheese\
my nigga u got me fucked up if you think I'm gonna live within walking distance of a place that has bins of cheese and not survive
peanut butter is really important to me, I mix it in the noodles. Oatmeal is really cheap if you get the cheap shit in that cardboard tube/cylinder/silo.
realistically you gotta be honest with ourself is this for a couple weeks or a couple months. If it's gonna be long term you need to steal some multi vitamins, u can skimp out on not eating a lot of fruits and vegetables if you have a once ad ay multivitamin
it's hard to steal a lot of stuff unless u got self check out where you shop/steal from self check out is like gods gift to starving people
a great meal is to go and peal off a 2$ cube steak sticker in the meat section and put it on the big ass thing of ground beef, get 4 1$ spaghetti noodles boxes, and like 4 cans of tomato paste for 50 cents each, get an onion too ur worth it, oh hya and get a block of cheese that shits like 10$ for a little ass block nigga grab 2 fuck em you think that grocery store gonna go outta business cuz you get to eat tonight? can of mushrooms like 50 cents too
fry up that mushroom, onion, meat, and then add the tomato paste, in another pot boil up all them noodles, when u done, just cut thin (or thick who cares it's free) slices of that cheese up, make a huge ass bowl of that shit, now you eaten off that pot for like 3-4 days and all it costed u was like 6$ to get extra m3eaty cheesy spaghetti
or u can be a whiny little bitch and eat flour and water with some salt nigger, get the fuck out of here, don't your balls swing you walk or do you just like eating like a Vietnamese or Korean person during their countries civil fucking war, pretty sure they didn't have a fuckign Walmart six blocks away with everything you could possibly want, pussy. -
2024-03-25 at 4:26 AM UTCimagine me making fucking hard tack haha, my nigga I live in AMERICA, we ain't finna eat no god damn flour and water oh just add some herbs it's not too bad, nigga this isn't 15 century england where you're gonna get hanged for stealing a radish, just go to the grocery store and STEAL
nther'es something God damn wrong with you people. If my tummy hurts cuz I ain't had shit to put in it in awhile and I dont' have any money, i'm going to the store and I'mma do what I need to do for me
ya we get ramen noodles and peanut butter and shit so we can eat everyday, but you don't think I'm filling my pockets with cans of squid and oysters and cheese and that good ass sushi, do I look like a bitch to you?

hardtack was flour and water with salt.
also i've eaten dog and rice with the Cantonese people before, cat and carp as well, it was all very good.
Humans eat rats and shit no problem, people just gotta get away from what they think they need to be doing and do what God allows them to do.
I understand like eating grass and roots and shit when you'd be hanged for stealing a potato. But when the worst that could happen is a retail theft ticket my nigga--walk in and ask the security guy (if there is one) where the deli is then just go grab a rotisserie chicken and go to he bread aisle and rip the biggest chunk of it you can and mow down on it as fast as you can and maybe dot he other peice, put that shit together again and go to the deli and ask for an application, when they give you an application, go grab the healthy juice like where it's like a smoothy, walk to an area where no one is and just chug that bitch and go back up tot he front. when you're walking out hold up the application and say "Thanks"
"Hi 911 we got a homeless guy who just ate a piece of chicken and drank some juice at the richguy's food Mart, can you hurry he's int he parking lot walking away."
lol the fuck is wrong with people, the cops aren't coming nigga, it's 1 meal eaten by a person who has to walk everywhere, the police don't wanna deal with this shit it's 2024 -
2024-03-25 at 4:49 AM UTCimagine me going hungry when people are making thousands of dollars an hour processing sales for food near me LOL, what the fuck they gonna do and if the cops do show up, my nigga u best be dressed humbly and tell them the truth "I was starving and I Didn't have anything to eat sir, I tried doing everything else I could to get something to eat but my body feels weak and I'm sorry."
unless you real fuckin retarded or sound cocky or some shit you're gonna tug on his big police officer heart strings and he's gonna say "Don't come back here." and that's some good advice cuz you suck ass from stealing from there anywayThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

damn thats legit. never got to the eating out of garbage phase but id get there eventually if it got bad enough. probably starting off with taking leftover food from food court tables and the eventual slide into trasheatery -
