People can google where they are at and free food also company that helps pay utilities “ and type in your location and then keep going until you fill up your cupboards I do this too and always have something to eat and many times I have gone to my full cupboards and no money and say I am truly blessed and really am thankful for the free food people give me “

One night when I was sleeping, my Speak n spell turned on automatically from my toy box, and started talking to me, scared me to death.

I ate most of these snacks during the 50’s and 60’s.

We use to eat spaghetti sandwiches all the time. My mom made the best spaghetti!

a lot of them are beloved and everyday dishes here

Also Turnips greens. It's the only green my husband will eat.

Utah has a bunch of soda shops. Not exactly like the old ones but similar

Disappointed when the Watergate info & Poke cake gets confused in its delivery. I guess I need to work for TH-cam to start editing it's info just like an editor for news paper or magazine.

I’d just remember as a child in the 80’s up to the early 90’s when drive-in’s were still wasn’t hard to find and a couple of 50’s-60’s burger joints was still available. The food was in many ways superior than now days and still was reasonably priced around $5.00-$7.00 (at a 50’s-60’s burger joint) for a 1/2 pound bacon cheeseburger with a lot of hot very tasty fries, with a bottomless soda and darned good shakes/malts. Just what a growing young boy needed to stay full for at least an hour before needing a snack before bed time. And since I was growing up at 1 1/2 inches a month I needed the calories and I was still skinny. Those were the good old days when I could eat like that and not have to worry about my weight. If anyone has or knows of a time machine, please let me know. Thanks 😎

Okay, why is he always talking about grandmothers how old is this guy? I think it's a i because of his mispronunciation

A cheap dish I came up with is simple, easy, and quick. For one person: First thing you need is some rice (minute rice is best but any rice will work) and place to get the best deal on a couple of different kinds of rice is Sam’s Club also for instant potatoes. Take 1-2 cups of rice and cook it, you can add some butter to the rice it also helps to keep it from sticking and clumping. before you cover it for extra flavor. (Optional) If you have any bits of meat left warm it a little then cut it up into small pieces you’ll mix it with the cooked rice. Season the rice with salt and pepper (optional garlic powder works well to add some flavor) mix it all together and serve. Another optional ingredient is to add your favorite sauce to the rice. Time is about 5-7 minutes I hope that you will like this cheap yet tasty and filling dish. Feel free to experiment with the recipe if you’re interested. Enjoy your meal 🍽️ 🙂

It’s interesting how things considered as cheap then are even more expensive now. Frying something? Hell no the price of oil is way to high since covid and war in Europe

Go to a restaurant and order a cup of hot tea. Take the teabag and put it in your purse or pocket for later. Squirt some free ketchup into your cup along with some black pepper and pour in the water from the water pitcher. Smash up some of the complimentary soda crackers and add to the tomato broth you just made until it thickens into the consistency of porridge. If you're lucky, your table has a pat of butter along with the salt and pepper you can throw on top. Enjoy your 'breaded tomato' supper.

I loved the plastic puppet and the dalmation

I still eat fried zucchini to this day.

In what universe have microwaves faded into history? lol

The last story was quite something. Specifically the first scene featuring Drs Heller and Wolfe: a "paradox" being discussed by a pair o' docs. It almost left me Russian to conclusions

I'm curious what the peeps ate BEFORE the Depression. Most of these Depression food items we still eat today and sometimes pay good money for them at a restaurant...I mean I can totally see some pretentious plant-based cafe in LA selling turnip carrot hash

Casseroles are still alive and well, we just call them different names now.

A lot of these foods are still around. And why is this presenter so dismissive of so much of this food?

During the great depression I would have died.I am allergic to all the foods they ate. No way would I touch a dandelion green.

Hoover stew is one of my go-to between paycheck meals - makes enough to have leftovers for a couple days, plenty of crushed red pepper and hot sauce makes it anything but bland. I'll usually use diced, browned Spam instead of hot dogs, too. Easy, filling, cheap, tasty.

That mac and cheese box was not depression-era. Also, peanut soup is African cuisine. Not liking; not subscribing.

made cream of chipped beef a few weeks ago with carls buddig beef. delicious.

so wait, egg drop soup…which is on every chinese take-out menu needs a comebacks? i had it last week 😂

I eat okra and tomatoes every week--I use fresh frozen sliced okra and a can of Ro-Tel (Hot) tomatoes. It's fit for a king.

We still rotate some of the meals.

My mom made the best tomato soup!

My favorite thing growing up was, grilling a peanut butter, jelly, banana, and Fluff (marshmallow spread) sandwich!!! Add some Hershey chocolate and you have either a s'more or chocolate banana twist!

Trump the people's president.....45-47

I just do not quite understand, why "cheap" and "depression" ? - most of these meals are basic meals in most cultures of the world, wish some variation of spices, but people still eat them daily, what is so bad on them to be qualified as "cheap" for "hard times" ? no, it is normal usual food

I would love the automat. In fact I bet with out antisocial generation we would see success in that come back!

hold up, casseroles are still common in the south

We still eat these dishes. If you live in the south they are eaten often.

I grew up in the 60's and many of these dishes were served by my Mom and remain my favs to this day....not a fan of meat so most are to my liking😊 Btw....dandelions are one of the healthiest things you can eat...people are fools to use harsh dangerous chemicals to destroy them!

My parents grew up in the Depression and I was a kid during the 70s stagflation. Gimme some fried bologna.

I loved my mom’s Tuna noodle casserole! She would only put peas on her side because I didn’t like them ♥️

The smell of fried onions = Grandma's house.

I grew up in the 60s and 70s. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized our “comfort foods” were Great Depression recipes that my parents had learned in the 1930s and 40s. Also, I was under the impression that chicken was a “less expensive cut of meat.”

I still make snowball cookies every Christmas. Yum

Imagine today's spoiled kids having to eat depression dishes...

If your grandmother was white and raised in the south, YOU HAD ENOUGH CANDI YAMS ON THE TABLE TO FILL A LARGE ROASTING PAN THAT COULD HOLD A 26 POUND TURKEY! We're their leftovers? (If you were really lucky and scooped up your take home plate before 3ed rounds started.)
