    Make little mini peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. That’s what my mom would make us when she couldn’t afford bread sometimes.

        Damn look at this fat cat over here being able to afford Ritz. Us plebs get to share a singular saltine for the week. We used to take turns licking the salt off for dinner and had the soggy biscuit for breakfast the following morning.

        On a serious note though, I feel ya. Hopefully your doing better as an adult. ♥️

        I’m sure other people did it for fun. Foods stamps are a weird concept as a kid. I didn’t understand why we paid with coupons and why we could only get one bread per week but the other people at the store can get anything they want.

      I’ve never thought of having jam too. I used to eat them with just peanut butter all the time.
