    Default Best Improvised Meals

    I spent a number of years on a tobacco farm. We didn't have many breaks, so you ate what you could when you could. We had a fella on the farm who would routinely make a sandwich using a slab of bologna and two honey buns as bread. He'd sometimes substitute sardines that were on the verge of expiring for the bologna because they were cheaper. He'd always wash it down with a chocolate milk.

    All of this may sound good until you realize a tobacco field is the hottest place on earth. If the "real feel" at 1100 hours is 98, it's already a good 115 in the field...and rising. If you can fathom the heat and physical nature of being in a tobacco field, you can appreciate the resilience of this man's gut. It was a damn septic tank.

    What is your weirdest/sickest combo?

    When I fish all day, I like to pack a ham and peanut butter sandwich. I also will dump a can of kippered snacks into a bag of Fritos and put some Franks in there. It’s dang good, just don’t forget a fork.

    I made spaghetti from ramen noodles, ketchup, and hot sauce back in my younger days.

    During a brief landscaping stint I routinely saw a guy a eat a margarine and mayo sandwich. Every now and then he'd get wild and put a hotdog in it.

    Shoot, you could charge 12 dollars for that as a starter in a fancy joint.

    Watching someone eat a chicken neck sandwich and leave the neck bone completely stripped of meat when they're done is an amazing sight to behold.

    Sounds pretty good to me. I may substitute checked livers though.

    I had a fraternity brother that would eat a block of cream cheese with Doritos and Oreos. Skinny as a rail also.

    It's not an improvised meal, but if we're talking about nasty food we love I'll offer up a few of my favorites:

    1. McDonalds
    2. Yakisoba Noodles(spicy chicken only, although they have a korean bbq that looks like an interesting color)
    3. Olive Garden(don't like telling people this, guilty pleasure, we get about $100 worth of gift cards to the place a month, we never use them all though)
    4. Flaming hot cheetos

    I got drunk once and made a sammich with white bread, mayo, fritos, and eye-talian dressing. I remember I thought it was pretty dang tasty.

    Adding mashed up fritos to Ramen doesn’t do your sodium intake any favors, but it’s also tasty.

    People that live to the west of South Carolina find Viennas, nabs, and a Diet Dew really odd as well as friend bologna egg and cheese sandwiches. Those people are odd.
