Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

I don’t get this one, surely you can just buy pasta sauce instead and it’s exactly the same steps but better 🤔
This is for people who might not have pasta sauce in their pantry, but most people will have ketchup in the fridge.
Or packets from a fast food restaurant
i once had a long article in a pre-internet punk 'zine about the different meals you can make with free food like condiments.. salt pepper water ketchup mustard relish honey etc. it also taught how to use toothpaste as hair gel.
it was eye opening.
It doesn't happen to still exist does it? Sounds like a very interesting read
i don't have it. it was at Moby Disc record store in the 1990s, maybe someone collects 'zines.
I'm gonna try to search for it later today. Any details you can add would help a ton
paperback, like half a 8.5 x 11. cover was blue and included a drawing of a payphone. the zine also included punk album reviews.
i see archive.org/details/zines has a ton of sinilar
Thank you so much! I'll see what I can do
Edit: 20 minutes and I don't think I'm any closer to finding it. I told my partner what I was doing and they said 'oh that's gonna be hard!" I'm stubborn, so I may keep trying
100%, some of these recipes are "scavenge for food with things in the back of your fridge/pantry"
Ahh this is not a "go buy" something recipe.
This is a "If you are thinking of not eating because you feel like you have nothing to eat, eat this instead"
Would be a great reaction meme if you took out cooking and centered the remaining text
I've been trying to learn more about GIMP, so here you go.
Oh wait, was I supposed to leave it slanted?
Works either way, nice work.
Ay, DIY gimp skills make a homemade meme truly tasty
Dear diary, today the internet delivered. Cheers to your GIMP learning journey!
I don't like ketchup like that. Fries, sure. Burger? A little. This? This is fucking gross. I also knew someone that put it on their pizza. On the inverse, I can eat yellow mustard straight
Pasta and ketchup is a common meal in Paris according to the one French Netflix show I watched where they ate it and never commented about how absurd it is.
Maybe French ketchup is different than American ketchup?
Probably doesn't contain corn syrup.
Almost certainly
It's almost certainly Heinz, and in no permutation you cannot find everywhere else in the world.
Grandma's wartime recipe is this, but instead of ketchup you add canned concentrated tomato and equal amounts of water (just full the can once with water again, helps to get the last bit out) and that's it. We call it red spaghetti, I make it for my kids from time to time, but this variation:
Grandma also added meatballs. Bake the small meatballs in a saucepan and when they're done, do the tomato thing in that pan, stir well, then add to spaghetti. Can't lose the grease, amirite...
I actually prefer to eat spaghetti this way instead of the sauce
