THESE ARE FINESSE 2x struggle meals ?!! (I HAVE TO try them) #foodreview #strugglemeals #hoodmeals #food #foodporn

The best of the best ones is the cereal with no milk (using canned milk), the off-brand Nutty Buddies, and Salisbury steak with seasoning salt. I did try that—it just didn’t make it into the video because of the length. And waffles… no jelly, no syrup, no nothing.

But the one I hated, didn’t like, and would NOT recommend is powdered milk. That is not for nobody to be struggling with—that is torture. That’s not struggle. It’s a difference.

Anyways, what’s some of y’all struggle meals? Comment them down below because I wanna know.

We used to eat syrup and white bread.

... Read moreStruggle meals often reflect creativity born out of necessity, turning simple ingredients into surprisingly satisfying dishes. From my own experience, cereal with canned milk is a surprisingly resourceful substitute when fresh milk isn’t available or affordable. It offers a creamy texture and a slightly different taste profile that can actually add variety to everyday breakfasts. When it comes to off-brand snacks like Nutty Buddies, these are great affordable treats that remind us comfort food doesn’t always have to come with a hefty price tag. Flavored snacks can offer a morale boost during tight financial times and bring back a nostalgic sense of enjoyment. Seasoned Salisbury steak with seasoning salt is an excellent example of how using simple spices can elevate an inexpensive cut of meat into a tasty and filling meal. Adding seasoning salt or basic herbs transforms basic proteins into something much more enjoyable, which is ideal for those on a budget. One thing many of us can relate to is making do with minimal toppings – like waffles without syrup or jelly – which is a test of patience and creativity alike. While this may not be glamorous, it emphasizes the real challenges of struggle meals. On the other hand, powdered milk often gets mixed reviews. As mentioned, it can be considered an unpleasant experience rather than a helpful substitute. Its taste and texture can deter many people, making it less ideal for daily use. Sharing your own struggle meals not only helps build community understanding but can give fresh ideas for affordable and comforting foods. Many people have their own go-to dishes that combine minimal ingredients but still provide energy and satisfaction. Ultimately, struggle meals showcase resilience and innovation. Despite tough circumstances, they remind us that nourishment and comfort can come from the simplest foods when prepared with care and a bit of ingenuity.

It's a certain technique to making powdered milk. (You have to add a little sugar, dairy creamer or heavy cream and let it sit in the fridge for a minimum of 4hrs) Lol I remember fighting down my cereal before we learned it lol. 😂😂😂
