You're listening to one-on-one with DP. Brought to you by Canopy Street Market. On 93-7 The Ticket and the Ticketfm.com. Welcome back, and you guys are active on the text. I'm going to read these texts because y'all are hilarious. Gene Hammock says, The cream beef meal was my favorite as a kid. Boy, does that bring back memories.

It was that or, oh, the buttock, then-slice sandwiched meat. okay so the the buttock bach does that resonate with you the butting sandwich meat i don't think so okay so that you would get beef turkey chicken ham and they would come in these little thinly sliced so shaved almost but these little thin packets and they were like three for dollar and you can make now depending on your degree of of appetite it's kind of like steak of the serving size was one per they would package them with like cellophane in between them and tell you, okay, there's 16 servants in here. Depending on the person, that 16 quickly just dropped to eight

because some people would just use two serving to make their steak sandwich. But it was the same way. And if you did it right, it could be three sandwiches. but I had friends. I had teammates. I had people in college where each packet was a sandwich. Each package was a sandwich. And it's all true.

Now, quality of meat, questionable, questionable, not sure if it qualifies fully as the thing that was on the list, on the package. They would tell you it was hand. I would almost put air quotes on the package. Ham, maybe ham, might be ham. It's true. Bill and Bennett says this rabbit hole has let down a road that forces me to show you what my doctor told me to stay away from.

But what does he know? And it is a picture of lunch meat, a package of luncheon. And my doctor, I remember the first time my doctor said, do you, he goes, what do you eat? for lunch. And I'm like, um, just like lunch meat. And he goes, okay, so for the record, as a medical professional, let me suggest to you that you never consume anything that identifies itself as luncheon meat. Which is crazy because that's, you know, I can kind of think of the subway stories and all that losing weight. That's not a bad deal. It's like to know what that was, to know what that was.

Okay. See, Corey, now you're shooting MVP shots. If you happen to have the wherewithal that night to brown a pound of ground beef, you could throw hamburger helper, manwitch, or a jar of prego in the mix. Opens your options considerably. Now, mind you, during the early parts of my adulthood, put a pound of hamburger was like 99 cents.

So you planned your meals accordingly. So you'd buy five pounds of hamburger meat, right? Which is what black folk called ground beef. Just so you know, if you went to the neighborhood and they say hamburger meat, that's what they're talking about. Like culturally, it is just okay. But five pounds of hamburger meat, one manwich, one can of manwich. So were you a manwich guy? I mean, I can, yeah.

Listen. I would double up with the meal. Because not only did you get the meal, but you also got leftovers for lunch. And warmed up manwich the next day, bro, MVP level with a bag of chips. Same thing with hamburger helper. Now, the hamburger helper,

if you got the original, but if you got the lasagna hamburger helper or the cheeseburger hamburger helper, everybody at the job was going to eat the next day. MVP level, MVP and the jar prago, a 49-cent box of spaghetti, that was three days worth a meal. There was three days. And I was telling the story.

Like that you would separate, okay, two types of people, the people with leftover spaghetti who put all of the contents they made, so the noodles, the sauce, meat, whatever, in the same container? Or do you put the noodles in one container, sauce in another container, etc? Bach, which one are you? This is my go-to. Spaghetti was probably more than anything else. But I would put it all together.

I wasn't all together. Yeah. And why? Well, I'm also had probably one bowl, one plate, one fork. So I pretty much was, I didn't like doing dishes. And you ate out of it. You ate out of a container. You ate out of container.

Oh, yeah. There's seven things. Yeah, you ate out of the container. Yeah, you ate out of the container. There are people who would put it in, you know, you portion it up, right? And put it on a plate. But you would eat the whole thing and then just go for it. And whatever, whatever's left, stay.

in the container back in the fridge. Plates weren't necessary. All true. But if you separated them, what would happen is if you controlled the portion control, you had enough sauce. If you did not, you had shared. What would happen? Somebody would come in

and throw off the balance and you'd have to go back to the Prego jar, pour water in it, shake it up, heat up the Prego, and then pour the watered sauce on your leftover noodles creating a nightmare. Let a break.

Hour two. One on one.
