I live on variations upon the theme of the same, so pretty much all of my meals are kissing cousins of one another. That's what happens when you have no monies and live in a dorm.

So if we had spaghetti pie or baked potatoes (or dishes that I can't spell in English :) ), I would happily eat those for many a meal afterwards. So maybe I'm just gifted with a naturally long food memory. In that case, it would explain why my fellow collegiates are always bemoaning their plight to me, and I can't really relate: so long as the food is good, I don't really care if it's the same as yesterday.

That sound like my college days. I lived on 70 cents a day. I had a hamburger (loaded) at about 11:00 a.m. and another one at supper. I couldn't afford breakfast, so I just ignored my pleading stomach. On weekends, I hitchhiked home and pigged out. I as as skinny as a tight string.

Yes, I know, it's been awhile since you could get a hamburger for 35 cents. Mid 50's.
