-- What's the worst food in your kitchen?

What's the worst food in your kitchen?

Even for those of us who like to cook and don't eat too much junk, I think that most people who live alone (and several people who don't) have at least one "desperation food."

It might be frozen dinners, canned pasta, Chunky soup, "Ramen" noodles, Spam (I once actually saw someone take one off the supermarket shelf) - whatever it is, the principle is the same. You know it's crap, you don't even really like it, but you rationalize away the purchase on the grounds that it's just in case of a major culinary emergency, like, say, it's 1 AM, and you've got the munchies, and you forgot to make dinner, and the only leftovers lying around have mold spores large enough that you could toss one on the passenger seat of your car and start driving around in the "carpool" lane.

I got to thinking about this after being re-introduced to Gaffigan's Hot Pockets routine, where he memorably says, "I've never eaten a hot pocket and then afterward been, 'I'm glad I ate that.'" We don't have Hot Pockets here but we do have Pizza Pops / Pizza Pockets which are just as bad, arguably worse, although that's kind of like saying I'd rather receive a wedgie than actually be kicked in the balls.

And I have them in my freezer.



I don't know why I buy them. I'm never actually satisfied after eating one. All I end up with is a deep sense of shame and, later, stomach cramps. But they're there, ever-present, one despicable 4-pack getting replaced by the next every few months.

So I'm curious to hear from the other TOTAs: What foods do you have stashed in the fridge/freezer/cupboard that you wish you weren't going to eat but will anyway? What offenses against nature are you keeping in stock right now?

Mine would be Zoodles.I now hate them, yet always seem to have a can and when I eat them Im left confused on why I even bothered.

I'll admit to the easy mac lol. pure desperation when your too lazy to even make stovetop or you ran out of milk.

my goto though is those frozen pizzas with enough sodium to kill you in 3 slices

Casa di Mama IS Dr. Oetker. They have a thicker/puffier crust.



The bf and I buy 4 or 5 of them every time we go shopping, lol. The spinachi one is my fave.

dr oetker makes two styles of pizza. ristorante (thin crust) and casa di mama (thick crust). they are both amazing but i like the casa di mama a little more.
