Chicken seems to cause more than it's share of FP.

For FP, potato salad has a well earned reputation. beat. Eggs most
often come with salmonella. OK if hard boiled.

Yup. I don't order or have eggs often anymore but when I do I order them
"over hard".
No more of the liquid yolk.

Love powdered eggs. You just can't explain the attraction to them for
some reason. More guys I know that served during our era have said
that to me more than once.

Some didn't care for them admittedly, but most couldn't get enough.

I also developed a taste for chipped beef on toast for some reason -
in particular if they used bacon drippings for the sauce.

Nothing like a hearty breakfast - pile of powered eggs, two servings
of SOS.

That is gormet man - gormet.

At Keesler AFB the SOS was hamburger in flour sauce. Really bad flour
sauce. Never could be called gravy. We drank a lot of powdered milk as
kids. If you made it a day ahead it tasted a lot better. My kids were
pretty much raised on powdered milk, which we still use. Mix and let set 12
hours and it is a lot better. Plus the powdered stuff has improved over the
years.

I never tried Tobasco on eggs until I met my father-in-law. He used to
cover eggs with the stuff.

Heh - when I worked for Texaco in New Orleans I struck up a long time
friendship with one of the engineers I used to work with. A few years
ago, they came up for a ski vacation in New Hampshire and stayed over
here for a couple of days. His wife was from New Hampshire and wnated
to have a real home made fish chowder, so Mrs. Wave cooked one up -
typical New England chowdah.

First thing my friend did was ask for tobasco sauce and used a liberal
portion in his chowder.

Mrs. Wave was ****ed along with his wife - neither one of them talked
to him the entire evening. :)

Speaking of hot, one of the strangest things I ever saw was a Master
Sergeant who used to use two heaping table spoons of cayenne pepper
poweder on everything he ate.

I never figured that one out.

Chowdah needs Tabasco.

SOS is made with chipped dried been. Not burger.

I think there are all kinds of versions of SOS. Another I remember is
ground beef fried up in a pan with a little water added to create a sauce or
gravy. It was then mixed into mashed potatoes.

Not too bad, stick to your ribs type cheap meal.

What the hell is "authentic" SOS?

The possibility makes me want to puke now.

That is real SOS. But you got all kinds of SOS in the service. Dried beef
not dried beans / beens.
