Am I the only one that liked Government Cheese?
Debauchery User ID: 1201998 United States 09/16/2011 09:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	Re: Am I the only one that liked Government Cheese? My grandma gave me Ovaltine. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. I am an evil giraffe, and I shall eat more leaves from this tree than perhaps I should, so that other giraffes may die.

When I was growing up, my grandma always got government blocks of cheese. I always remember it being real tasty american cheese. What happened to that cheese can it be bought? Quoting: thehitchhiker My grandma grew up in the depression, and she would bring us free cheese and butter when I was a kid...I remember asking why she would stand in line for it when she had the money to just buy it...when I got older I realized it was just a way of life for her. If there was a sale on soap or toilet paper she'd buy cases of it...free napkins from restaurants, matches from the bank, she was a trip! Quoting: BRIEF I don't remember how she got it, but I do remember she had to go get this box of stuff once and awhile. She went to school till she was in 8th grade before she dropped out to help with money to raise the family. I really only remember the boxes of cheese, cans of peanut butter, and oats. Then durning nam era she go c-rat boxes with mixed stuff. Say Ya to Da UP eh'

I was just talking about this with a friend the other day. I don't know why we got it, but I remember going with my grandmother to get the boxes of food. The cheese and peanut butter were the best!

I no longer eat cheese, but will only eat "real" PB, which is nothing more than ground up peanuts and salt. sometimes i just take a container of peanuts and grind them in my food processor - yummy and $ saving. sometimes you have to add a little oil depending on the type of peanut. i think if you have amish around you that you can still buy real cheese.

Quoting: Zero Point If it can't be bought. Is it still the same? I remember it as a cheese that wasn't all processed. Just this solid block of good cheese in a brown cardboard box. Quoting: thehitchhiker i used to feed it to the dog mixed with the white rice..... the butter honey flour and cornmeal made really good corn bread.

And yes, that was some awesome cheese! Live and learn, then learn to live

Remember during the war, WW1 and WW 2? they would give you those green stamps and they had to ration out the food because most of the meat went to the troops back then. Does anyone remember that? My mother used to use those green stamps.
