This is what my dad eats

What kind of hours does he work? I've worked jobs that were 60+ hours a week and the first two look like something I'd have made when I was too hungry to take the time to cook or too exhausted to dirty any more pans I'd have to wash.

I'm at this stage too of thinking of how many dishes/pots will I need to clean later and maybe I'll just make something that'll keep me alive for another 6 hours.

There's been lots of pb sandwiches and 3 pickles in my diet lately.

WiffleBallZZZ@reddit

I hear you. The other option is making an insanely large meal that will last 5 days.

I've been getting this red beans & rice starter kit that's got the seasoning pack with it, and you just boil water, add the rice, bean & seasoning, simmer for 25(ish) minutes, and I add a half a head of cabbage, a couple onions and andouille sausage (or just smoked sausage if I can't find it). It makes at least 4 VERY filling meals, or even more if I'm having a side with it.

Just make sure you don't work in too close proximity with other people

ginindaworld@reddit

And that is his business and you are sharing it? He is an adult.

[-]

Consistent-Stock6872@reddit

100% he is in some type of trade. I would guess electrician.

[-]

TLRPM@reddit

Rougher trade I would guess. Pipefitter or drywaller. But not insane, like a concrete guy

A2ndRedditAccount@reddit

I actually didn’t think the first one looked that bad.

This isn't that bad. He is fed and that's what's important

[-]

KommandoKazumi@reddit

I fuck with all of that, ravioli in ramen looks baller as fuck actually. Peak stoner food.

[-]

dreampuff@reddit

He’s doing well keeping something green on the plate

[-]

TheMarvelousMagpie@reddit

I was thinking the same thing, not what I'd call appetizing but he's getting veggies!

[-]

izyshoroo@reddit

I also will throw canned green beans onto things. They're good and pretty healthy

[-]

collaredd@reddit

Ruby_Soho-@reddit

[-]

FartSmeIa@reddit

[-]

quirkelchomp@reddit

It actually looks like cheap, bottled guacamole to me instead.

Source: grew up with the stuff in school lunches

[-]

FartSmeIa@reddit

then thats the most watery guac i ever seen😭😭

[-]

quirkelchomp@reddit

Yes, it's vile

[-]

Ruby_Soho-@reddit

Quite the shade of green, though!

[-]

pickled_penguin_@reddit

Probably the combo of tomatillos and cilantro.

CurrentlyEatingBagel@reddit

That shit looks good as fuck. I grew up on green beans and eggs, as well as hot dogs and eggs. My boy, you are missing out

[-]

lemmys_wart@reddit

Hell yeah

[-]

Salty_Plantain_6220@reddit

When i was a kid my dad used to make use instant noodles made with a little extra water in it, then adds instant mashed potato powder. He said it was healthy

[-]

Scopophobic@reddit

This is a common long distance hiker food! So warm and hearty, really hits the spot after hiking a zillion miles.

[-]

Afraid_Ad_1536@reddit

I used to do that, grate some cheese into it and then scoop the mix into a toasted sandwich. That was my dinner almost every night between 12 and 13.

[-]

MyMomsTastyButthole@reddit

Yes, carbs on carbs 😂

I used to add a lil bit of instant mashed potato flakes to Campbell's chunky soup to make it more filling.

[-]

Lugalkien5150@reddit

Surprised he didn’t put green beans on the third plate

[-]

skefmeister@reddit

Love those tiny pickles

[-]

N_Who@reddit

Hand to God, I once watched my dad spoon mayonnaise into his Top Ramen. The guy used to just raid the fridge and dump every bit of leftovers he could get his hands on, into his instant noodles. Fine, whatever. But just globs of mayonnaise was where I drew the line.

[-]

xxHikari@reddit

Did your father grow up extremely poor? I did, and while mayonnaise in instant noodles is a stretch, I have done very similar

[-]

N_Who@reddit

He didn't grow up extremely poor, but he did grow up without parents from a young age. So that could definitely be a contributing factor to his dietary choices.

But also the guy just eats a lot of weird shit.

[-]

xxHikari@reddit

Fair enough.

[-]

Sammalone1960@reddit

Are those vienna sausages or hot dogs with eggs. Your dad and I could be related

[-]

SmudgeAndBlur@reddit

"That'll make a turd."

TeaWitchXXR@reddit

He gets his veggies

[-]

Certain_Store_619@reddit

Has to be Hispanic

[-]

AppUnwrapper1@reddit

Canned green beans are the worst

[-]

spilledmilkbro@reddit

The last slide looks alright, but what's that green stuff? Radioactive gravy? Oobleck? Slimer residue?

[-]

TLRPM@reddit

Need to open your horizons to verde sauces. There’s bunches out there and they are amazing.

[-]

Highest_Koality@reddit

When does he get out of jail?

[-]

Mazasaurus@reddit

Your dad has a real can do attitude

[-]

winthroprd@reddit

He got the big pack of green beans at Costco, huh?

[-]

Proud_Apartment_7816@reddit

What's strange to some brings much needed comfort to others

[-]

bitchesrus25@reddit

That's a lot of sodium. He won't be able to eat like that for much longer.

[-]

lavalampoo@reddit

Lol, whatever. My southern grandpa eats faaaaar worse than this (even more sodium and fried, fatty dishes) and is turning 95 in February! He also drinks like a fish.

[-]

Baelish2016@reddit

Correlation does not imply causation.

That’s like basic 5th grade understanding.
