While on random gross food - just today the local store had a sale on those tiny packets of Buddig extremely-thinly-sliced (and I assume pressed) meat that my mom used for SOS. So I bought a few and plan to try to recreate it.

I used to love those as a kid. Would eat a package as a snack. So salty! And Vienna Sausages too. Wtf was that weird jelly stuff in between them in the can??

Itâs not implausible that an outlier poll could produce such a result. From the aggregation of poll results on Wikipedia, it looks like opinion polling is tightening up to the point where the uncertainty bands are starting to overlap.
Itâs so random you bring up buddig. My husband and I were talking about buying our son more lunch meat (he went through 0.75 pounds of turkey slices yesterday at lunch!) and I joked that we should get him the budget quality stuff my mom bought us as a kid, and showed him the brand at the store. Havenât thought of it in years before that.
I ate a ton off Buddig lunch meat growing up. Including SOS. I have not tried to recreate SOS but I did buy some Buddig as an adult and the nostalgia did not hold up. It was the texture, too many hooves or tendons in there, yuck.

What is SOS?
Chipped beef with gravy, served on toast, aka shit on a shingle.

Common military staple . . . sometimes on toast, sometimes on a (hard) biscuit . . . sometimes on an actual roof shingle . . .
But @Mathman has the spell out of the acronym.

Lol. That made me check out what the packaging says. The meat part is just listed as âbeefâ, but I have to admit I donât know what technically that means.
It contains up to 15% âflavoring solutionâ but then mentions only water and salt for that. I think âflavoring solutionâ is a pretty bad way of saying salty water, as my mind went first to thinking that they needed to add beef flavor to make the âbeefâ taste like beef.

My dog likes French fries.
My older cat likes green beans. But it has to be canned. One time I gave her a steamed previously frozen piece, and she sniffed it and looked up at me like, â
wtf am I supposed to do with this??â Sheâs a texture girl (and sometimes a salt girl).
My SIL is under the impression she can get Canadian citizenship because my husbandâs great great grandparents were Canadian. Everything I am finding says otherwise, though, but best of luck to them.
What are the rules? Paternal grandpa was canadian.

Yes. That is a bridge too far.
If neither of your parents were born in Canada, probably not. Our kids are Canadians, but their kids will only be Canadian if they are born in Canada (or if their partners were born in Canada).

Wut? How are your kids Canadian? Were they born here?
And how are they adjusting to their new life?
Wife is Canadian (first generation of kids born outside of Canada to a Canadian parent get citizenship.) They absolutely love it here â being right downtown is great for both of them.

There should be an Old Menâs Health magazine. In fact, they can probably just change the name of the current magazine as who else still gets hard copy magazines?
