Anything baked in cream of mushroom soup or cream of chicken soup.

It got to the point that when I would just accept the fact I was going to go to bed hungry each night that I would see her cooking it when I got home from school. That shit is horridly bland, and the sodium from the soup sucks all of the moisture from the meat.

Maybe it's because they're foreign to me and non-xenophobic people tend to glorify that which is foreign, but I really, really like American casseroles.

Ugh. My mother's recipe was a pound of ground meat, a can of cream of something (mushroom, chicken, asparagus), a pound of frozen veg (broccoli, green beans, carrots, cauliflower, or more likely "blend"), and a batch of pasta or rice, then bake with breadcrumbs on top.

I don't understand why she was surprised when I started cooking my own food at 10.

My dad went travelling for a few years and stayed in India for a while, so this naturally meant he could make curry.

I mean, I say "make curry" I mean "put a bunch of vegetables into a pot and make a watery barely-spiced mess including brussel sprouts in the mix for some goddamn reason". Christ. I sort of want to go back in time and get some pictures.

Anything with tofu. Mom was a health-food junkie (she even ate those rectangles of cardboard that are labeled "health crackers") so nearly every night, it was steamed veggies, which I normally don't mind, but it was usually either broccoli or asparagus (God damnit, woman, those are my two LEAST favorite vegetables in the world) with some sort of baked/roasted meat. Generally the meat was awesome, because mum makes a damn good roast beef, but she can't cook pork to save her life. She'd always buy those Hormel pork loaves, you know the ones that have triple the lethal dose of salt, questionable amounts of fat, and have been soaking in what appears to be sewer water? Yeah, those, all the time.

I'm also very confused as to what her definition of "health food" is.

CHICKEN:My mother used to make baked chicken that was so dry and unflavored. Just thinking about it now makes my throat dry. Also, terrible bbq chicken (in the oven-like hockey pucks). I still can not eat chicken cacciatore because of her. Dad was on a special diet so we couldn't use saturated fats in our cooking but I can't imagine that would make it impossible to cook chicken.

Dear god do I know what you're talking about and how. Those are awful, and my mom still cooks them. The last time I visited her she cooked a teriyaki one and made "Japanese rice" with it (white rice cooked with chopped up celery, white onion, and strange brown things I assume were shredded Steak-Umms by texture, color, and flavor.)

The big thing I don't miss is frozen pizza. The only time we'd ever eat actual delivered pizza was when guests were over and she didn't feel like "cooking". Until I was about 12 I didn't even know you could make a pizza from scratch. That and how she would put plastic wrap over an entire head of cauliflower, put it in the microwave to "steam" it, and then take it out and dump a molten American cheese/milk blend "sauce" over it.

Sounds familiar. My family wasn't even poor, but my parents' childhood homes had been, so they absolutely refused to invest in anything and instead "saved for the rainy day". For us it was pyttipannu, yesterday's boiled potatoes pan-fried with onion, vegetables and hotdog quality sausage or tinned meat.

To be honest, it didn't get much better even on the few times they bought proper ingredients. My mother's speciality was baked pork chops in tomato sauce. Dear god, it was canned tomatoes, chopped onions, vinegar, salt and copious amounts of black pepper. Everyone had a heartburn for the rest of the day after those sunday meals. Poor ma, when she finally started to notice how everyone secretly resented her "best dish", she got really depressed for a while.

Orphanages still exist in Murrica. They are all run at the state level but your stay there will probably be a shitload shorter than back in the day. They typically place you in foster/volunteer homes pretty quicky, but if you are a fuck up, they will tend to keep you in their dorms and maybe you visit a foster family that just wants weekend kids (very smart imho). They will not keep shuffling you around because it pisses off the foster families, and it results in the kid having to jump from school to school, or be bussed to a central school in the area at much expense.

My dad was raised poor in West Texas and South Arizona by an alcoholic Texan and a teenage mother from Oklahoma. As a kid he had nothing but homemade because snacks and soda and TV dinners were too expensive. He cooks good Tex Mex. He's too lazy and impatient to make much else, though. His dessert attempts are terrible because he just takes everything on the list and mixes it and wonder's why it doesn't turn out.

My mom was raised poor in North Texas by two Midwesterners; Iowa to be specific. Food up there is terrible. My grandpa won't cook since that's womens work, and my grandma learned how to cook after she married. Meaning she read the back of the Campbell's Soup can. So, my mom has no basis for cooking well either. Lots of made up recipes (EX: Beef Stroganoff - sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, ground beef, canned mushrooms and pearl onions, on white rice). Lots of frozen shit.

Honestly, nothing. My mom worked quite a bit and often didn't have time to cook a dinner every night. She'd usually use Sundays to cook up a bunch of pasta, rice, chicken, steak, etc. that we could then keep in the fridge and use as needed during the week. She knew the value of protein in terms of keeping someone full, and so we always had plenty of meat and dairy in the house. It worked out well: she didn't have to do as much work during the week, and I learned how to fend for myself regarding meal preparation. Oh, and she had an amazing spaghetti sauce recipe that I never got sick of because it was so damn delicious.

Stew, my mom's fucking sew God bless her. She always let the lentils burn, I don't think she ever browned the beef or the onions before sticking them in the pot, it was bland at best, and gross from the burnt lentils at worst. She is a sub-medeocre cook but generally managed to cook things that tasted alright except the fucking stew.

The worst part about the stew is she cooked it in a HUGE pot so there was always leftover stew FOREVER.

Last time I went home and she had made it my brother, sister and step-dad and I all exchanged nervous glances when my mom mentioned how she was making the stew we all "love so much"

one of the worst things she made was steaks baked in the oven covered in worchshire sauce and salt. blegh.

Both of my parents were excellent cooks who liked to experiment. However, after my father's death, my mom went through a vegetarian/health food phase that was godawful.

>unseasoned steamed vegetables with watery mash

After she got together with this asshole and they moved in together, she seemingly forgot 90% of her cooking skills, so the choice of meals is down to

>greasy beef stew (goulasch)
>pepper stew
>thick potato/peas soup
>potato and beef casserole
>pasta with mash

4/5 she'll make one of the above. Thankfully I have long since moved out, seeing my mom who I know for a fact to be an excellent and enthusiastic cook throw away her skills for this asswipe is just too sad.

My mom may have been the worst cook on earth, however, this could not have been told to her, or she would actually end up hitting you with something.

So there's this one time she tried to replicate my aunt's fried chicken, it's incredibly delicious and spicy. It's akin to korean chicken wings. If you've ever had those, you know the crispy delicious goodness that they are. Anyways, she ends up somehow fucking up fried chicken. I'm not sure how that's possible, but she does it. FROZEN in the middle, still raw and bloody, i tell her they're not nearly as good and that they aren't cooked all the way. What does she do? Forces me at knifepoint to eat them all. Half frozen, half raw in the middle. I get food poisoning, i'm called a retard for eating it... rinse and repeat for about a year.

She once stuffed a turkey with a jar of spaghetti sauce. No joke, we had busted glass in our turkey one year. Apparently she saw someone make beer can chicken and thought "fuck it, prego will work fine."

I don't know how she did this but once she fucked up ramen. I don't know how or why but she dumped half a jar of spaghetti sauce into it because "they're noodles dammit!"

My dad was the complete opposite, taught me everything i know about cooking.

So i'm allergic to zucchini, what does mom make every fucking night for dinner? Tomato saucer with zucchini.

>Hey mom, i'm allergic
>You're just a whiny brat
>Okay mom, but i think i'll die or something if i eat this
>EAT IT OR I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU
>eat it.
>End up in hospital for throat swelling.

Oh yes, then there was the pizza fiasco. I tell my mom i'm going to make a pizza. She then claims i won't be able to do it right. Make the pizza, and it's the best homemade pizza i'd ever had. Her jealousy of this (she's full italian, can't cook for shit) goes into overdrive.

On the days she did make food I disliked, she didn't make me eat it. She let me make my own meal to eat. When I was a kid, it was just a hotdog or a can of spaghettios, but when I was about 9 I started actually cooking.

Pretty rad.

[Anonymous No.3686074]

My mom's cooking is excellent when she can be arsed to actually cook, but since she's a manic depressive RN with a congenital heart disease that gives her migraines four days a week, that hardly ever goddamn happens.

There's one exception; and that's when she tries to make steak.

Done in the oven. No seasonings. Cooked shoe-leather brown and grey, every time. And it just sat there in it's juices too, so it wasn't even baked so much as boiled.

I probably wouldn't like rare meat nearly as much if I hadn't grown up with this overtough, flavorless beef-slab on my plate one night a week.

The really shitty thing is, you can't tell her anything is bad. I have no idea why moms get like this, but it seems like there's this class of mother who will not be criticized on their cooking no matter what.

I'd imagine it was from some ancient paleolithic idea of what a wife and mother is supposed to be, but my mom is as liberal and empowered as you can be without turning into a total cunt, yet she still has this /thing/ about cooking.

Her rhubarb crumble was legendary. Bitter as fuck with bread crumbs on top (that's what crumble is just bread crumbs, she didn't need a recipe).

My dad can't cook for shit and my mom was a decent cook but she used to make this beef dish with vegetables that was fucking disgusting. I was also a picky eater until my oldest brother returned from the Army and he taught me to cook and got me to try new foods.

My mom put tomatos on everything. Literally everything, and if it wasn't "ok" to put them in the food, she just sliced some raw ones and layed them on the side of the plate. I can't eat them anymore.

Is she a southern lady? Just asking because my mom's family was from the south, and we ALWAYS had a plate of sliced tomatoes and onions on the table at every single meal. Apparently it's a southern thing.

Porkchops cooked in mushroom soup. Always burnt the sauce.

I was raised shitpoor with my sister, an she did all of the cooking. She was a good cook, but expiration dates meant nothing to her. Shw never wasted anything she's bought. "This is why we cook shit, anon," she'd say. "This is why man is superior, because this heat is going to kill fucking everything in this rancid meat."

Lo, 45 minutes later we'd be eating some delicious preparation of seasoned meat and vegetables. It took getting used to, considering I knew I was eating some rancid-ass food, but she was a master at masking the taste with spices and sauces and I never got sick from it once.

Fuck mashed potatoes and hamburger gravy with a knife.

Also, my mom found a recipe for 'taco bake' on the back of a bisquick box. Taco stuff folded in to biscuit dough. Fucking sick.

Fast food and hamburger helper every other day, unless it was 'fend for yourself night' which was more common than dinner being made.

Everything else was pretty good, even the boxed/frozen stuff.

[Anonymous No.3695347]

my dad would make pizzas where the dough had the consistency of bread and he would insist of baking it on a covered surface and drowned in EVOO so it would often turn out soggy-as-fuark, and burned to boot. EVERY TIME.

When I tried to put a frozen pizza directly on the rack he yelled at me, told me it could fall thru the cracks as it softened. WTF.

He went to a catering college and worked in the restaurant industry most his life, so frankly I think he's retarded.

[Anonymous No.3695385]

All of my mom's cooking is really bad. It's only gotten worse over the years.

She continually makes a homemade banana pudding. The "pudding" is liquid and diarrhea-flavored. I ask her why it's liqudy and she says "it used to be solid when I made it years ago"

IDFK.

Steak! Love it now but hated it as a kid.

Parents grilled almost every day, but torched everything to well WELL done. So I grew up thinking steak was over hyped meat chunks.

....Then I moved to Texas, and had my first real steak, rare. It's now my favorite food.

When I was like 5 my mom had to give me some kind of medicine (for what I don't even know), so she ground up the pill and put it in applesauce for me since I was to young to swallow a pill. Ever since then I can't stand applesauce.

[Anonymous No.3695771]

My mom works all the time so she would never cook. If she did it was steak baked at 350 till grey and ziti which was just rigatoni, sauce, cubed mozzerella and ricotta mixed in a pot till it came together. I ate it though, never complained. I even still make it sometimes for the nostalgia factor.

My dad was an alcoholic. On his sober nights he would cook great food, even if he didn't really know what to do. However on his drunk nights, he would assemble buttered egg noodles, peas and undercooked porkchops and pour cream of mushroom soup over them. Mom would be working and dad would be eating with his bare hands. Scooping the noodles and peas with his hand while licking the gravy off. Then he'd start cursing out someone, but I wont go any further than that. Still on his sober nights it was always a feast and great times were had.

Oh fuck, I'm tearing up now. I miss you dad.

Do you ever get nostalgia cravings for shitty foods from your childhood, i do, my mother made this shit called Cafeteria Special, it was simple as fuck, ground beef, and a packet of onion soup mix with a bit of water and wine, over mashed(watery and under salted) potatoes and frozen corn, I make it almost once a month, just, ya know, good, and its god damn delicious. (Still use a packet of Lipton onion soup mix, just a decent red wine, fresh thyme and rosemary help a fuckload)

Bumping this GOAT thread

My mother was actually a pretty damn good dinner cook. She's no gourmet, but she usually made everything pretty edible and halfway nutritious, even when she was using canned/processed product.

But the lunch situation growing up was always dire.
>cheapest slimy lunchmeat
>shitty store-brand wheat bread
>amerifat cheese
>no veggies suitable for sandwiches
>microwaved hotdogs
>frozen peas, always fucking peas
>more of the same when we packed lunch for school

Still living at home; she wonders why I got in the habit of eating out for lunch.

This is exactly what I was going to mention. My mum is a really good cook but insists on making mince and tatties once a week, except she does it with mashed tatties. It's so fucking bland and I the texture is all gloopy and soft. I just smother it in brown sauce, salt and pepper and hope for the best.

I do like stovies made with corned beef for some reason though.
