    84 here. I fondly remember my mother buttering toasted bread, putting each slice in a bowl then pouring sweetened stewed tomatoes over the toast. It was so good as a lunch.

    Nothing is cheap anymore, I try to make homemade instead of buying process food. It really tastes so much better 😊😊

    My parents lived through the Depression, so they knew how to make money and food stretch. My dad had it worse since his dad died in 1927, and his siblings were grown. It was just dad and his mom. He said that the kids at school loved it when their moms made bread. Then they got to have some kind of sandwich for lunch at school. The poor kids ate cold biscuits. That was embarrassing because it announced to the other kids that they were really poor.
    His mom also made dandelion salad, and she made tomato dumplings with tomatoes. And she cooked beans a lot. One Dad’s favorite meals was bread or biscuits with warm milk poured over it. I remember seeing him eat that when I was little.
    Mother’s dad worked for Purina Food Mills, so he had a good job. They also had a few milk cows and were able to provide milk for the family plus have some milk to sell to the neighbors. They had six kids and took in kids from the outlying farms in their area. That was a lot of kids but they didn’t have any money problems like many others did. Grandma always kept a large garden.
    Growing up I had a mix of what both of my parents had to eat. My parents grew up without indoor plumbing, but I never really had to go without any of the things my parents had. My dad had a really good job, a cleaning lady came over every week to clean our house and I never had to worry about any of the basic necessities. My dad also paid for me to attend college. I definitely had life better than they did.
    tto soup and cut up biscuits cooked in the soup. She also made sour dough bread because she kept the‘starter’ overnight and used it again the next day. She always had a garden.
    Mother had things better because her dad had a good job. They also had a few milk cows and had milk for the family and other neighbors. Mom got up at 4:00am each day to milk cows. Grandma also kept a large garden. They had six kids and took in kids from the farms out in the country to board with them during the winter months. So they really had a full house.

      macaroni and tomatoes and liver and onions and rice and beans and/or top ramen. I'd rather starve, thanks.

      I thought the same thing. When my grandma made this when I was a kid,I would always excuse myself to the bathroom and hope family ate it before I came back!

    Thanks for the forecast! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?

    Beans need ham and onions.

      Onions, yes. And spices. Ham isn't necessary. Aminos (smoke flavor) works fine,.so.does a dash of cayenne pepper.

    Everything is bioengineered now 🤢so the quality of our food is worse than it was years ago. I still remember what normal natural food tasted like 🥺

      Bioengineered doesn't automatically mean bad.

      And we have to save the planet by not farming in the us! And help other countries by buying food from them!

      @@characteristicgaming99 Most times the bioengineering is to make the plant yield larger fruits, a higher quantity yield, and last longer on the shelf. And yes, they have done studies proving that in order to accomplish these goals it reduces the nutrition of the fruit/veg.
      They've also been finding that the flavor (or lack of) is a pretty good indicator of how much nutrition a fruit/veg has.
      So when you eat that watery tomato that has no flavor? It has less nutrition than that pricey but delicious heirloom tomato.
      So... yeah.. MOST bioengineered fruits/veg aren't as good for you.
      On top of that is the fact that companies that bioengineer fruit/veg are placing copyright patents on the seeds and suing any farmer whose crops contain their bioengineered genetics (Just a reminder, many plants procreate by releasing their pollen via wind... which travels long distances).
      So... Monsanto is actively working on "owning" all plant foods by patenting plants and claiming any offspring as theirs.
      Which means, even if bioengineered foods weren't nutritionally deprived, supporting the company that has created most of them is bad enough in itself.
      India has actually passed laws and regulations to prevent companies like Monsanto from trying to monopolize food sources.
      You can look at the works of Vandana Shiva for more information on it.
      Too bad the USA is too corrupt and sold out to follow suit.
