White Trash Food

[Calamity Jane]

So I'm sitting here eating a Spicy Pickled Somked Sausage... ya know, those bright red hot dogs that you can buy at truck stops... so spicy they make you want to kick your mouth out of your body?

Anyway, I'm reading the ingredients (I don't know why) and they seem pretty straight forward... beef, pork, vinegar, preservatives, artificial color, carcinogens... but does anyone else remember when they used to list the exact ingredients? I remember on family vacations in the 9 passenger station wagon, we'd get these things, and it would not only list 'beef' but waht exact parts of the cow that the sausage contained.

whatever happened to the good ol days?

what's your favorite white trash food? and yes, anything at all that contains velveeta counts.

 

[KillerMuffin]

I love velveeta.

Dried beef, you know that salty stuff?

My relatives can't get along without pickled "anything" particularly pigs feet, eggs, and okra.

 

[Calamity Jane]

gods... i ate more dried beef gravy growing up than i care to even think about...

never have less than 2 big blocks of velveeta in the fridge.

i can do without pigs feet. do they HAVE to leave the toenails on?

i ate mt oysters the other night. can't believe i did it, but they weren't too bad.

If you don't like Velveeta, you ain't trash. Love that extruded cheese!

How about fried pork rinds and bolied peanuts?

 

[WriterDom]

Pickled eggs and Bud. Gas so bad it can clear a city block.

 

[Calamity Jane]

i've never eaten boiled peanuts... i don't think missouri/kansas is southern enough.

i have eaten snapping turtle, helped the guy that caught it clean it first. those things just refuse to die!

a friend brought over pork rinds that are microwaveable... come in a bag like popcorn... anyway, they caught on fire in the micro... can't stand the thought of them now.

Well, if going in theme with everything said lately... I must say, Ciggerettes are my ABSOLUTE favorite white trash food.


I mean it is SO terribly sexy to see a butt hanging out the gaping nicotine stained mouth, and to smell that irresistable smell.

I may not smoke, but to me, even the most elegant person looks like white trash when smoking.


But hey, enjoy the lung cancer in a few years. And while we are at it, why not pass it on to the kids?

I mean, what better gift can we possibly give our kids then second hand nicotine? Why not get them addicted now, while they are still young?

Hell, it is the perfect Christmas preasant.

 

[Calamity Jane]

hell forget second hand smoke... i just bought my 4 year old a carton of camel straights so she can be just like mommy

 

[miles]

Such anger

 

[freakygirl]

*comes in from having a cig*

wow.. wrong thread

I don't eat Velveeta.. so that means I can't possibly be white trash..

 

[HARDKOREBJ]

WHITE TRASH food would be for southerners.
i been eating turnipgreens past coulple days.

 

[Calamity Jane]

nope. if you don't eat velveeta, get the hell out of this thread!

Nope... we have White Trash in Washington also.. it's not just a southern thing..

 

[PacificBlue]

Hmm...I don't think I have a white trash food. I do call the .44 cents a can tuna I buy white trash tuna cause it isn't the albacore stuff. That's more of just a joke though.

oh.. that stuff is nasty..

I only eat freshly caught tuna...

mother in law cans it every year..It's the best..

 

[PacificBlue]

It doesn't bother me in the least. *shrugs* I adore tuna noodle casserole...it's become one of my favorite winter time foods. Quick, easy, and comforting.

 

[lobito]

I'm with ya on this one PB, there's nothing wrong with the cheapo stuff, UNLESS you are used to fresh, which is nearly impossible for alot of us to get BTW.

While I don't put Velveeta on my tuna, occasionally I will make grilled cheese with Velveeta, and put some tuna salad on the sandwhich while it's still cooking, that's pretty good that way.

Beef and Venison Jerky are pertty good, as is Fried Okra, but I'm not so sure those are really White Trash Foods, are they? If so, then call me light brown trash.

 

[Calamity Jane]

deep fried dill pickles

no, all alone those aren't white trash foods. not the okra and stuff anyway. but if you put tuna salad on a fried velveeta sandwich... darlin, you're one of us!

ever make one with grape jelly? or balogna?

 

[lobito]

Does Strawberry Preserves count instead of Grape Jelly? Because I can't stand Grape Jelly. Regular cheese sandwhiches though, not grilled. I have had Strawberry preserves and bologna together though, as a kid.

 

[Calamity Jane]

I suppose you hate grape soda too?

Grape soda, totinos party pizzas and the dukes of hazzard. now THAT was a friday night!

 

[lobito]

NOPE! I LOVE grape soda. I just don't like that grape jelly stuff. As for Dukes of Hazzard, well, there was only ever one reason for a prepubescent boy to watch that show, and it wasn't the General Lee or Boss Hogg.

Cooter?

 

[Calamity Jane]

it was the theme song, right?

 

[morninggirl5]

Can I interrupt this discussion with a question, please?

I need hard biscuits for school on Monday. (Mayflower experience). Should I buy them today or Sunday and then leave open to harden?


Heeeeeellllllppppppppppp!

 

[lobito]

Naw! Actually to be honest, it was Roscoe P. Coltrane! (that's the name right?) TA HEEEE HEEEE HEEEEE
