    You know what else is poor food? Duck confit.

    You know what else? Soul food is literally food made from things slaves got and grew themselves. Like, it’s below poor food and it’s absolutely amazing.

    There’s poverty food from all over the world that’s amazing. The English are just bad at food.

      Lobster was prison food.

      Then again, they did just grind up the whole thing, scales and all.

      We have different definitions of what amazing is. Poor food, is only poor food, because people with money choose better things because those better things have a higher taste ceiling, therefore poor food can only ever be average at best, else is it really poor food?

        That’s a bit wrong. Poverty food was poverty food a lot of time just because it wasn’t trendy for the rich and royals to eat the same food as the common people. They may even have preferred the poor food, but they couldn’t eat that in view of others.
