Making Kool Aid from a packet where you had to add multiple heaping cups of sugar into a normal sized pitcher. Even 7 year old me was questioning exactly how it could be remotely ok to consume that much.

Corned beef hash. Looked like dog food but was awesome.

School lunch fried burritos that were orange and dripping in greasy goodness.

I was probably 10 or so the last time I ate one of these...

Still go get one anytime I know IT'S BACK!!!

They don't seem to advertise it as much these days though, so I've probably done that like 2 or 3 times as an adult.

I'd actually occasionally eat most of the same 70'scsnd 80's "mom cooked foods" but they were mostly made with cost and not health in mind.

I like a sloppy Joe, or fish sticks, or a frozen burrito doctored up, or a spam sandwich, but that's stuff you can't eat in a 2 week rotation any more.

Best cafeteria meal of the week!


Without a doubt. A few years back I tried to see if I could purchase one, unfortunately you had to purchase 50 of them, as that was their minimum.

I still eat frito pie. Not as often as I did in my 20s, but that's one that will never quite go away.

When I was a kid I was served a solid rotation of a dish called salmon patties which was basically a crab cake with canned salmon instead of crab.

Same on the salmon patties - a staple growing up. Plus tuna croquettes that I think were mentioned earlier. And our pear salad was most of the time pineapple instead of pears but the miracle whip and cheddar cheese were of course there.
