Jeez dude. Let turkey be turkey and quit trying to make it be ground beef. It's not. It's meant to be either smoked or deep fried, then sliced or gnawed right off the bone.

Please tell me you don't feed your family turkey "bacon".

Definitely draw the line at turkey bacon.

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.


My grandmother made these on occasion when I was a kid, I have not had them since, but I always liked them

I call and raise you the school lunch rectangle pizza.


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.


don't talk about it, be about it. I mean cmon if you want 1 square pizza what's wrong with 50.

It sounds good until you realize you can have buscuits and sausage gravy.

You can buy them? I always assumed the school just rolled dough out to fill the sheet, made a giant ass pizza, and cut it into rectangles. In fact, I still think that and I think you're lying.

Same on the salmon patties. I always liked them.

In college when I was still honing my cooking skills I tried to recreate them. I thought the bones needed to be removed and I spent a huge amount of time picking everyone out. I called my mom to ask how she ever had time to do that and she laughed at me saying they could be incorporated in since they're soft from canning.

Made a scratch version using a couple of the recipes posted on here 2 weeks ago. It was so damned good and literally nothing like the crap I ate in school.

Man, salmon patties brings back some memories. One of my grandmothers would cook the **** out of salmon patties for "dinner." Dinner being lunch and supper being the evening meal.

So dry that I had to use A1 on them.

Actually no, just found them on Amazon, now you can get 96 slices for $122may need to reconsider making that purchase.

Y'all must've been poor growing up, my mom made us "Salmon Croquettes."

Also, same on the bones the first time I tried to make them in college, but I squished a vertebra between my fingers and realized I could just slop it together and none of my drunk roommates would know any better.

Depends on how old you are. If you are 30 or younger, that pizza was definitely frozen. I mean, it probably was anyway, but government rules on reporting nutritional information pretty much killed scratch cooking at schools, even though it was probably healthier.

Back to the efe point of being poor, we never had those in the house. I LOVED going to my friend's house where her mom would make me unlimited bagel bites and pizza roll things. I never could wait for the cool down and burned my mouth.
