1. Instant Oatmeal for breakfast, 2 packages exactly fit a coffee cup.
2. Costco Peanut Butter, don't need bread, just a spoon, haha.
3. Nissan cup-o-noodles, just add hot water, no pan, no fire, microwave.
4. Telephone to get pizza.
5. Tuna and crackers.
6. Date to feel sorry for you and cook then hook up afterwards (never happened to me, but it's possible)

Absolutely. I used to cook fried rice with whatever leftovers I could find (as long as it wasn't too weird).

Omg, Hawaiians!!! All thru college I had Hawaiian roommates... there was SPAM in every freakin corner of our room. They kept serving it over rice with scrambled eggs and gravy or something lidat. Yuck.

I prefer Annie Chun's noodle bowls, $2 at Trader Joes, better taste than cup o noodle, and probably slightly more healthy. Easy to make, all you need it water and a microwave!

Spam's expensive nowadays. At Costco an 8 pack is $17. Used to cost $13

They also sell Spam Hot Dogs at Costco. 3 pack went for $9.99 and when nobody bought it, price was reduced to $4

I mean, I was spending my money on pot and unnecessary things too but I at least had ample money left over for food
