Imagine you had a lot of money and could afford any fancy food you wanted. But think about those simple and inexpensive foods you love so much that no matter how rich you become, you will still enjoy eating them. A user asked on the forum, “What “cheap” food would you still eat no matter how rich you got?”
Here are some responses he got!
BAKED POTATO
“Filling, satisfying, can add anything to it. Newly discovered to me: Baked potato. Scoop out potatoes, and mix in spinach artichoke dip. Put back in skins. Cover with cheese. Bake till melted. Add sour cream, green onions, bacon, whatever. Thank me later.”
TAQITOES
“I still stock up on a rotation of El Monterrey taquitos weekly. Legit best-frozen food you can grab imo. Chicken, Steak and cheese, Southwestern Chicken, Bacon, and egg. Feed them all into my veins.”
BUTTER TOAST WITH CINNAMON SUGAR
“One being Ramen. The second is ever so slightly browned buttered toast with cinnamon sugar. They don’t work together but are go-to’s”.
CORN DOGS
“I would never eat four hot dogs in one sitting. Unless, of course, they were covered in deep-fried cornbread. I got an update for this at 11 pm and have a late-night corn dog.”
FAST FOOD BURGERS
“Fast food burgers just hit differently than gourmet ones. Both delicious, but not always in the mood for gourmet.”
EGG SANDWICHES
“I could eat eggs for every meal! They’re so tasty and versatile. And, as a bonus, I have a small flock of hens in my backyard!.”
TACOS IN TACO BELL
“Taco Bell is the only place where you’ll roll up to the drive-thru and see a $70,000 Mercedes, a ’94 Chevy Cavalier with 300,000 on the clock, and three guys on a moped. It’s the great equalizer; we all want the same thing, to live mas.”
TOTINOS FROZEN PIZZA
“Totinos frozen pizza. Not the rolls, the cheap little square pizzas that cost $2. Delicious!!”
“There is something magical about cheap pizza in general. I’ve got no standards, Costco, Little Caesars, Dominos… it’s objectively terrible but scratches an itch deep in my soul.”
BUTTER NOODLES
“Mince and sauté some garlic in butter, then toss noodles and some pasta water in and cook until the butter and water thicken. Top with some chili flake and parm if I’m feeling fancy.”
TOMATO SANDWICHES
“My absolute favorite. I’ve tried them differently, but my favorite is still with mayo, salt, and pepper. Usually eaten over the kitchen sink. On the white bread that sticks to the roof of your mouth.”
SPAM FOOD
“SPAM…a thin slice of SPAM, fried until the edges are crispy…, put it on white bread with some mustard, or on top of some rice…yummy.”
GAS STATION FOOD
“My weakness is gas station food. The construction workers know what’s up. I don’t care if I become a multimillionaire; I never pass up fresh gas station food on a road trip.”
SPAGHETTI
“Some people eat it because it’s cheap; others eat it because it’s delicious. I like it for both reasons.”
DAL WITH RICE
“My Dad’s family were living hand to mouth in Fiji, and with six kids plus the extended family, you could feed a village. Cheap white bread with margarine and Vegemite, every poor Aussie kid grew up eating this.”
GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
“Green bean casserole made the crappy way with canned everything. I’ve spent hours making everything from scratch, including frying my onions, and there’s just something so comforting about the slop version.”
