Right now, here’s the rules:

  1. Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
  2. It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
  3. No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.

How to tag: To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz

Here are the current tags:

Legit, this was a meal on the regs back when I was still under 20, living with my best friend and barely making it through each month. This shit right here was a good meal compared to some lol.

Fuck, some of the sketchy, out of date crap we ate, I'm amazed we didn't die.

We had a friend that ended up running a stop 'n' rob out on the edge of town, near a community college. They had hot dogs, as that kind of store does. But we could go in at night, and our friend would let us have whatever didn't sell. Hot dogs that had sometimes been on that little cooker thing since the morning, covered in shitty chili, onions, relish, and whatever else was there. Fucking gross lol, but when you're young dumb and broke, you do what you gotta do.

So, fucking ramen and vieeners (as the old folks here in the country called them) was high eatin. There's some fancy eats.

Small convience store in not great area. 7-11 would qualify. They get robbed a lot.

I always thought it was a riff on the cliche convience store "stop and shop" slogan but I'm not sure
