The cafeteria where I work has this as a special today. Is it good for you or is it bad?

[sailor]

it is insanely bad for you, loaded with calories and fat. it's my favorite breakfast food.

[Bulldogcakes]

Its considered to be healthy if the only other option is starvation.

[DiabloSammich]

Is it actually good? I've never been able to get past the smell or the look of it to give it an honest chance.

My grandfather used to eat it out of the can. I'm gagging again thinking about it.

[Ritalin]

Oh, it's spare parts of meat and potato heaven is all. The standing order for a young, drunken Ritalin at 3 am at the Webster Diner on the corner of Webster and Clark.

[jeffdwright2001]

I've always lived with the philosophy that no properly prepared food is bad for you, as long as it's eaten in moderation.

I just haven't figured out how to do the moderation part yet, which may determine how long I actually live with that philosophy.

[LaBoob]

Extremely fatty... which is probably what makes it taste so good. Also the loads of salt.

I eat it once a year, St. Patrick's Day of course. I made a corned beef and cabbage panini for my family this year and it was very well recieved.

[Freakshow]

Depends. Is that white toast or wheat toast?

[Freitag]

I had it once and it was mushy. Never again.

Pork roll. That's a MAN's breakfast.

I just realized it doesn't matter, if you are going to drink that cup of Catsup along with your meal.

[RAAMONE]

Scrapple is silly

[Freakshow]

Silly delicious. Goes well with Boh, too. :drunk:

[KingGeno]

You're better off with some nice Shit on a Shingle, and a side of Scrapple smothered in syrup.

That right there is the greatest meal ever created. Angels dance in place when it is consumed.

my parents always make that...but they also mix peas in with it and serve it for dinner sometimes

is that normal?...cause i've never seen it anywhere before

Peas, are your parents brother and sister or something

i dont get it

My mother takes the S.O.S. concept, replaces the beef with chicken, and adds peas, carrots and sometimes lima beans. She calls it creamed chicken. Fantastic tasting.

What's interesting is that you are from Pittsburgh, and my mother is from Pittsburgh. Maybe it is a Pittsburgh thing to mix random things with cream.

My mom always did that too. Except she replaced the chicken with ham, removed the peas, carrots, and lima beans. She'd add cheese and mushrooms and put it all inside eggs. She called it an omlette.

As long as this is a health question thread can anyone tell me if having unprotected anal sex with a syphilitic, transexual, intravenous drug addicted, Hatian prostitute with a runny nose is healthy? It's the "special" at my work today and I'm not sure if I should try it.

It depends.

What color is the sputum you noticed coming from her nose?

[RhinoinMN]

Who cares. It is delicious!

I LOVE that shit. In fact, I would make love to corned beef hash.

Is that what that's called? I think my mother used to make this for me also. It wasn't my favorite, but it was quick and easy for my mom.


GenoBaggadonuts: What's interesting is that you are from Pittsburgh, and my mother is from Pittsburgh. Maybe it is a Pittsburgh thing to mix random things with cream.


My grandmother grew up in Shamokin, PA... we always had ties to that part of PA and it influenced my mother's cooking a lot...

How about fried balogna with ketchup? It's my mom's favorite because her mom always used to make it for her.

[KingGeno]

My mother and her family are from Braddock, PA. Keilbasa and eggs, shit on a shingle (cream chipped beef), etc.

Western PA cooking is normally really bad for you, but tastes fantastic.

Burger + Mayo + Cheese + Bacon + Peanut Butter = Very very interesting food from Pittsburgh

I tend to agree, but the woman on the top could stand to lose a few pounds.

[Chigworthy]

Get a can of the dog food style hash. Fridge it for a while. Open both ends of the can and push the goodness out. Slice it into 1/2 inch discs. Fry em up crispy, lay an over easy egg on top and enjoy.

[sr71blackbird]

The cafeteria people had the stuff spread out on the griddle and were making a dent in it to drop an egg in it. Does it taste like canned dog food smells?

[scottinnj]

I almost re-enlisted in the Army for that very reason.....thank god my wife learned to make it as good as the Army does.

[sr71blackbird]

What is shit on a shingle?

Discovering S.O.S. was the one highlight of my brief stint in the Navy. I lived off that stuff and managed to drop 20 pounds in a month. I had it again a month ago... just as delish as I remember it being.

I haven't had CBH in ages. It was OK, but not something I crave.

[Heather 8]

Creamed chipped beef on toast. Truly exquisite.

Almost as good.

This is one way to achieve shit on a shingle:

Eggs mulligan is even better. English muffins with corned beef hash spread on them, topped with poached eggs, with hollandaise. I used to freaking LOVE eating this on Sunday mornings. That was, um, pre Weight Watchers.

God, it's fucking glorious.

Corned beef hash is amazing, hence why it's like a heart attack in a can.

Corned beef hash is delicious, the only thing better is scrapple.

[Death Metal Moe]

I just ate a can of Corned Beer Hash for lunch on Sunday.

I use a fork to break it up out of the can and I create an even covering all over the skillet. I crisp one side in like 5 minutes and then do my best to flip every section to crisp the other side.

Then I add 2 eggs I've scrambled in the can the hash came in and mix it all up. At that point I bring the mix back to an even covering and cook until the egg is done.

I prefer to eat it with pita bread but I had none this weekend so just utensils.

wouldn't that get all soggy? wacka-wacka

but seriously, i like corned beef hash with chopped onions and melted american cheese. just amazing. if i go to a diner, i'll order hash and eggs about 90% of the time.

[jonyrotn]

Good Lord! This entire thread makes me wanna vomit..You people are animals..

[Yosammity]

Hash and eggs over easy... A beautiful thing.

Reminds me of early Sunday mornings or a road trip at a truck stop.

Put two eggs sunny side up on the toast before you ladle the creamed chipped beef on top...
