by the end of the Summer every year....except one...I don't like walleye anymore.  Walleye this and walleye that gets old when you're as proficient at it as I am.  Even the dog won't catch 'em by the end of the Summer most years.  I may try something Boar made me think of with his jerky and pickle some walleye this Summer

You were already a stray. That's why ya ended up at the dog pound.  I gotta go try to get a new 'puter, this one is toasted and crashing continually.....ya might get a reprieve from me for  a while until I find some money to get one.

Creamed corn and peas, still can't even think about eating either one.

Folks had liver often, but that's the one thing they never tried to make us eat.

[Duffman]

Canned spinach, broccoli, and anything from Chef Boyardee/SpaghettiOs.

Milk rice.  I don't think my parents make it anymore.  I think the only one's that liked it was them.  We were poor and rice is cheap.  To this day that is the thing that I couln't eat.  If I didn't eat it, I went hungry that night, but I stuck to my guns and skipped the meal.  If I remember right, my mom would cook the rice and put it in a baking dish.  Then add butter and milk and poured it over the rice.  Once you get this on your plate you put cinnameon and sugar over it.  Just couln't handle it.  I love using rice in my meals now, but not making milk rice anytime soon.  good luck.

I grew up on a farm so we usually had plenty of meat - beef, chicken, ducks - to eat but the one thing Mom made that I disliked was the peanut butter sandwiches for our school lunch, you could barely see the line of peanut butter. Nowadays when I make a peanut butter sandwich it has enough peanut butter and jelly to stick to the roof of your mouth!!! Can't blame her though, being poor with 8 kids, guess I'd stretch out the PB too.

I also remember going to my aunts, she'd feed us a salmon spread and weak koolaid, both were awful.

 

I will add, I don't mind an occasional fried liver meal, and my mom used to pressure cook tongue, peel the skin off with a little salt and pepper, it would make a mean sandwich.  Fried heart is good too. Now my wife doesn't want me to eat organ meats....

11th Commandment: Honor thy SPAM

Never has there been a more polarizing food. We ate a TON of it as a kid and I loved it - still do! Many hate it and I don't get it. Sure it's not great for you, but there's more pure meat in SPAM than any mass-produced Hot Dog.

Unless yer Hawaiian.  They eat more than anyone. I love it. Made right west of here in Austin at good ol' Hormel. My Dad grew up in Austin. I grew up with the stuff. Plus, he had a lot of it in the Navy. Said the Navy also made the best coffee.

[reinhard1]

Another polarizing food when I grew up was spinach.  Everyone was supposed to hate it.  My mom fried it somehow [I'll have to ask her] and I just loved it.  First cartoon I related to when we came over from Germany was Popeye The Sailor Man..  Watched it all the time and every time I ate spinach I checked out my biceps to see if they are getting bigger LOL.  good luck.

Sounds almost like rice pudding or some variant of it. 

[RebelSS]

Perhaps the other version of the depression era "milk toast?" Lot of that eaten during the lean years...

[reinhard1]

It was a stretch the pocketbook meal in those days.  I've had rice pudding but this must of been a variant of it as you say possibly, but was terrible.  Nobody that I know ever had it or even knows anything about it.  Maybe I should google it but something close may come up and I would loose my appetite.  good luck.

[gunner55]

Grew up in Spamtown & ate it often then. Still do, just not as often. Dad worked there until the strike, new plant talk started.

I did it for ya. Appears if y throw in a vanilla bean, salt, and some sugar, it's a celebration dish in Sri Lanka. No wonder those people are so skinny.

And if you use chicken broth and cook the rice for a couple hours you have Congee.  Chinese eat it for breakfast. 

[smurfy]

Awe gawd. That milky rice dump with cinnamon ugh was that gross. Now SPAM is pretty good. Someone gave me a recipe. Take spam mush it up add cheese and something else.  Put it on a dinner roll and broil till slightly toasted. Dang that was good.

You hamhead.That's a deviled ham canape. Or horse divers, as Fred Sanford used to say. 

SPAM SPREAD
1 can Spam, ground 1/4 c. butter 1/2 lb. Velveeta 1 can tomato paste Garlic salt or powder   Grind Spam and Velveeta. Mix with remaining ingredients. Spread on buns and broil. Serve warm. Mixture keeps in refrigerator for quite a while. It also freezes well.
