Re: What 'poor people' food did you grow up eating?

[(Anonymous)]

It was more like what we didn't eat: steak. Growing up, I thought steak was something people only ate at restaurants to celebrate a special occasion, not something you might have at home on a weeknight. We ate beef, just not in steak form. It was weird in school when we'd be learning about food groups or in a foreign language class and the teacher would ask a random kid to describe what they had for dinner last night and the kid would say "steak" (or the equivalent in another language). I don't think random steak-eating is actually all that prevalent, even in the US, since my friends usually didn't eat it much, either, regardless of income level, but I think some people just see it as a normal, everyday menu item.

I think part of it is a terminology thing maybe?

ayrt

Possibly, although I think of "steak" as "Here is a blob of beef that is not ground or cut up in bits" and that seems to be how most people around me growing up defined it, and how restaurants, grocery stores, and tv adds defined it. I know there are certainly instances where "steak" basically refers to beef that isn't ground beef (or sometimes is), like in steak tacos, but if you had steak tacos for dinner, you wouldn't say you had steak for dinner, you'd say you had tacos for dinner.

I’m vegetarian and have been since I was 11, so I’ve still never had steak. Basically the only meat we had was canned tuna, ground beef, chicken in soup or (if we got fast food as a treat) nuggets, turkey at Thanksgiving, and sometimes seafood, when we had company. For some reason bacon only happened on camping trips.

i would eat skirt steak (I think it's called that- -- lean cuts of beef that cook in less than a minute, aka minute steak) when we had money for proper meat. I always thought that was proper good steak. Imagine my surprise when asked which cut was the best and I found out it was not in fact my lean steak if childhood, but the nice fat marblized cut? lol and I was around 20 when this happened.
