I grew up eating that. One eyed Sam – piece of bread with an easy over egg in the center

Amazing, I'm telling you. Good stuff right there.

Oh, yes. I LOVE boiled cabbage with butter and pepper! :drool:
 
I remember having chipped beef on a fairly regular basis when growing up on a small farm.

My mom would make it and I didn't like it. To this day I don't even like to look at it.

I used to live on hot dogs. I still could but am trying to a little bit healthful.

I can't remember if I liked chipped beef right off or it took a while. Not too sure about today, tho.....:lol:
 
:lol: nope, not quite but chipped beef remained fairly popular after those dark days....it is a warm winter meal on occasion.

I had nothing as fancy as that. :hmm:
I remember my folks would butter slices of bread and sprinkle them with sugar and pass them out to us kids. We thought it was the greatest thing in the world! :giggle:
 
When I was a little kid, creamed chipped beef came in Banquet Boil In bags. It went in a sauce pan of water on the stove and then was just poured over toast.

I actually loved that stuff. I think part of the reason was my obsession with individually packaged foods, but it still tasted great to me as a child.

I do that occasionally for breakfast, but I add cinnamon to it, too. Makes it even better!

But you probably weren't on a farm although I will admit I'm wondering where we got the chipped beef which is wafer thin beef...kinda wavy like bacon, reddish and dried. I'm thinking my folks must have bought it at the grocery store....maybe in frozen packets....
