Oh wow, I need to say this. I'm a black woman almost 60 years old. I was raised in a predominantly black neighborhood in the 70's. A Vietnamese family moved across the street from me. I became friends with a very smart young lady name Anna, if i remembered correctly and she and her family would invite me over from time to time for dinner and they would serve something like this but it was chicken over rice, I never forgot that and would sometimes look for this because it was so good. Awesome post, thank you for sharing. It brought back a wonderful memory.

Being broke/poor really makes you appreciate any warm meal, like having a warm meal instead of something quick from a bag or like some white bread sandwich makes you feel so good! Rice and soy sauce is still one of my favs

I entirely agree, rice and soy sauce is amazing

It called Abon. Cracked a raw egg and mix with hot rice. That was my struggle meal . Some top with green onions.

The simplest meals are the best ones to be honest.

I’m living alone and I’m 19. Life is hard for me right now, I go to college and I work after for two hours at a gas station then I have a night shift at 8 pm at the local grocery store lasting 2 and a half hours. I have to study for my exams and i have to do my assignments too.
I’ve been struggling real hard to provide only for me. I never knew how hard stuff would get. Even a simple sandwich and drink can be one of the best meals I’ve ever eaten, I miss my childhood and parents, they have passed. I hope everything will get better and I hope all this struggle will be for the better for me.

Times are tough but with simple meals like this will most definitely get you through, makes you appreciate the little things more! 😅❤

My grandfather was a farmer and used to process amd smoke his own meats. I’ll never forget, he made this one dried meat that looked very similar to this in a Smokey BBQ flavor and in a teriyaki flavor… I’ve been looking for something similar my entire life. THANK YOU! I will be trying this!

I can't relate to all these cooking channels with their fancy ingredients, no one cooks everyday, sometimes you just gotta take a piece of bread and bowl of rice and add some random thing from the fridge

Some parts of Mexica make that pork floss. They call it “machacado”. Goes amazing with scrambled eggs and some beans.

When I was in West Africa, they taught me the struggle meal of rice, sprinkled with chicken flavored Maggie seasoning, and a little red palm oil. If you had some sliced onion or cucumber, you're really ballin'! And yes from hanging out with my Asian friends I got rice, soy sauce, and we put sesame oil too. I like to put pepper flakes on both versions.😊

Yes!!! Rice for breakfast, fried egg, dry meat and avocado works Sooo well too. Even Machaca 😊 Nori too 😋

Latch key kid, home alone, and couldn't use the stove. She's very relatable. But instead of a rice cooker, I had a toaster oven, and grilled cheese was my after school meal.

A protein with rice and a veggie is my go to when I don’t feel like cooking a big meal . It’s healthy and filling. Can’t beat that.

My cousin had a Chinese landlord who used to gift him a huge container of pork floss around Christmas and we'd always tear it up with some rice and beans. Goes great on ramen too.

Adobo is my favorite rice + meat combo dish. My step grandparents would make it for the entire week when they’d visit and i never got tired of it. Chicken, rice, steamed veggies with either tea or low sugar juices are all you really need to eat pretty healthy.

this is SUCH a taiwanese meal! I visited Taiwan just 2 weeks ago since it’s been years and every food stall was selling these ingredients in one way or another. so comforting and filled with love

I remember our home alone meals for me and my younger bro were toast with cinnamon and sugar and those packets of powdered mashed potatoes and some kind of deli meat. Then we’d go in the living room and watch penguins of Madagascar be on the internet completely unsupervised and see something traumatizing. Good times man
