It's time to step up and confess. Was it coffee-mate sandwiches? Did you ever snare pigeons on the ledge of your crappy apartment? Or did you ever prepare pancakes made with water, because you had no milk, and fried in mayonnaise, because you had no oil? Submit your entries here. I'll award the winner with a month's supply of ramyon. This offer is only good until Chuseok, so act now!

That would be the day after a party at my house......

Powdered mashed potato in cold water.

and it was washed down with half a can of flat pepsi left over from the previous night which somebody had used as an ashtray.

Once as a student I got so hungry that I went to where the hare krishnas are and sat through a service, chanting and dancing so I could partake of the free meal afterwards. Instead of delicious Indian food they served vegetarian lasagne.

With my integrity compromised, I tasted disappointment on that day.

Yeah, I'd have to say dried Ramen noodles, though the WORST was when I actually DID have money and went to the school cafeteria one time. They were serving "burritos" that were actually tortillas with stringy beef and ketchup in them.

Yes, those are my words. I even googled them to make sure.

It was terrible though. I was willing to subject myself to their lunacy but for curry and samosas alone. Instead, the meal that I recieved, though sustaining, was as ashes in my mouth.

Why the vodka? This recipe makes no sense.

If I remember the reason, we added it to the food because if we just drank it on its own, we'd seem like alcoholics. But then again, I'm pretty sure we were already drunk at the time.
