Sounds like a slop of shit

>>10063991
It's the sauce that doesn't make sense to me. Why not make gravy?
Man, fundamentalist Mormons are the weirdest of the white folks.

In my family we had Tuna on Toast when we were feeling poor. Basically tuna gravy on toast. Good way to feed a family with one can if tuna, some bread and flour.
I elevate it a bit, double the tuna and call it Killer Whale Food and the kids love it.

Because you can just open a can or jar of spaghetti and dump it in.

>>10064178
I guess so, but in this book the author was talking about how poor they were, and how their dad didn't let them get food stamps or anything. So I'd assume gravy would be cheaper. I mean I always think of these polygamist wives as handy in the kitchen at the very least.

The fuck are whipped potatoes

>>10063956
No, but my family makes "pink stuff". Looks bad but tastes good.

>>10064265
WHAT THE HELL IS IN "pink stuff"????

>>10064283
I would assume pink foods or perhaps red and white foods

>>10064283
>>10064289
I don't have the complete ingredient list but there's cottage cheese and maraschino cherries. Something makes it sweet. I want to say it is marshmallow fluff but I'm not sure.

>>10064283
you take stuff and add pink food coloring to it a-DOY

>>10064294
I am open to this.
>>10064297
Holy shit. I have literally never seen that word written down. The last time I heard someone say DOY I was in elementary school. I was born in the 80s you're freaking me out.

When I was in jail, my favorite meal was S.O.S, or shit on a shingle. it was pretty tasty and cheap to make. I enjoyed it even though it looked like some slop of shit.

potatoes that have been whipped

Filipino meat loaf

For every two pounds of beef, get
1 egg
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 can of Campbell's Alphabet Soup

Throw it all in a big bowl
Mash it all together
Form it up
Cook it until done

Surprisingly tasty.

>>10064374
The alphabet soup sounds like a real game changer!

>>10064360
>>10064360
holy fuck man everywhere i look it's slop of shit this slop of shit that, i cant get away from you.

please, stop :(

>>10064426
Slopfag is the hero we need, but not one we deserve. Be respectful in his presence.

>>10064405
A little credit to my idiot, useless mom, but the alphabet soup is pretty clever. It's got a bunch of different veggies in it for texture, and it has that tomato taste that really works well with meatloaf. It's pretty damn good.

>>10064374
Are you the guy whose mom made the Scarface womb pizza?

This is a side dish, but whenever my mom would grill or bbq, she'd make a side she just called "Spicy Corn".
>2 cans if corn, drained
>1 small onion, chopped
>2 fresh jalapenos, minced
>8 oz cream cheese
>hot sauce and s&p to taste
Saute the onion and jalapeno in a little oil or butter just until tender-crisp. Add the cream cheese and stir over low heat to melt. Add the corn and stir well, letting it come to a low simmer so it's hot throughout. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and hot sauce.
It's pretty white trash, but FUCK if it's not delicious. Other than that, pretty much all her other cooking was more bourgeoisie.

>>10064490
I don't know, man.
I kinda get it, I see the appeal, but the general disdain for creamed corn haunts me.
This could be much elevated with corn straight off the cob, and the addition of cojita

>>10064542
To be fair, it tastes a lot like a white trash version of elotes. Which, I also like. Mom's dish isn't so much like actual creamed corn, though. It's not soupy, and the kernels aren't broken. But, I do think it would taste good using fresh corn off the cob, and maybe adding some crema to it for the tang. When I make it myself, I usually replace one jalapeno with a couple of serranos. Yep, this trashy dish is now being passed down.

>>10064562
Yeeeeeaaah. Now you're talking. If I replace the canned with fresh corn, the cream cheese with I crema, and throw in some cojita, that shit would be pretty cash.

>>10063956

Sounds like it was made with, you know, longing. Made by a person really longed to eat some shepherd's pie. Perhaps because they'd only heard of it by rough description.

>>10064236

Another word for mashed potatoes. In theory whipped potatoes have more air than mashed, but in practice they're pretty much identical.

>>10064453
lol, I remember that guy.

>>10063956
That really doesn't sound too bad to me.

>>10064016
I'm of Czech descent, and we used to eat tomato sauce instead of gravy with potatoes or dumplings all the time. It helps that tomato sauce is always around, but gravy you usually have to make (canned gravy is terrible).

>>10064929
This is what I assumed. I assumed there had to be some sort of cultural thread connecting it to SOMETHING.
But I don't know if anyone knows what the FLDS connects to back before Mormonism. That would be something interesting to research.

>>10064950
I don't have an answer to your question, but here's a picture of one of the early FLDS leaders with his youngest daughter.

>>10064975
The history of Mormonism is one of the strangest religious histories I can think of. And there are some pretty weird ones out there.

>>10064445

It makes sense. Same principle as adding a spoon of tomato paste to a chuck roast, adds some glutamates and tomato flavoring does go well with beef in general as you say (most proteins, really).

Got no money atm so I might try it soon.
