Â* Tonight's dinner was based on the leftover beef roast I cooked in the
slow cooker a couple of nights ago . Slices of the meat warmed in gravy made from the drippings , laid on a slice of homemade bread . Mashed potatoes and green beans as sides . Damtasty and filling , my belly is happy . So is my wife ... I think she likes my cooking ! -- Snag Yes , I'm old and crochety - and armed . Get outta my woods ! |

SOS is usually either chipped beef or ground beef in a >white sauce/gravy , served over toast made from stale bread . I prepared enough SOS to fill an oil tanker, never served on stale bread, always served over fresh white bread toasted. I baked bread every night, no preservatives were used... all was eaten the next day and that night I started over. There were no bakeries at sea so the only packaged bread aboard was from the day we left our US port... there's isn't space to store much food aboard ship. The supply ships high-lined foods at sea but never any baked goods, only baking ingredients like flour... was in 60 pound paper sacks, each contained six ten pound bags... flour was stored in the same compartment with sugar, salt, rice, beans, other dry ingredients, and some canned goods, like coffee; cases of 20 pound rectangular cans to save space, very likely why SPAM is in rectangular tins, only thing is I never saw any SPAM aboard ship, we had very good quality 10 pound canned hams (Armour Gold Star), stored in the reefer... I think only the US Army was fed SPAM. The US Navy was the best fed on the planet, and the enlisted men ate much better than the officers, because the officers had to pay for their meals and they were all cheapskates when they made up their menus... they had their own cooks too, pineapples/stewards.

I sprinkled some green can cheese on it but the cheese came out clumpy. It was weird. After staring at it for a while, I realized it was mini-marshmallows bits. Kraft will put those things in the same container as their cheese. I found a big container of grated cheese that was better than green can cheese. Unfortunately, it was moldy. https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared...rIivXPqZZVELOK |

"corn syrup, sugar, modified cornstarch, dextrose, water, contains less than 2% of gelatin, tetrasodium pyrophosphate (whipping aid), natural and artificial flavor, blue 1" The blue 1 is a nice touch. |

It was Mallow Bits - a totally different product. They're quite good - if you like that sort of stuff. The funny part is that Kraft uses the same container for their powder cheese. They just use a blue plastic cap. https://kissmyglutenfreebuns.files.w...4/img_2347.jpg |

Glad I got there early because there was a huge line of cars. You have to drive around the back, someone comes out to take your order and then brings it out. It was pretty good. |

A few days ago, I made stewing-beef stroganoff, and I made mostaccioli and meatballs today with green can parmesan. Neither were photo-worthy. Hmm...I must be serving pasta more than I thought. leo |
