7. I made 'Mulligan's Stew' from YouTuber Max Miller's 'Cooking History'

Hilarious! Canned peas, canned corned beef, an onion, a little veggie oil, tomato ketchup, and salt and pepper to taste. Maybe some other ingredient too. You can check it out. Wasn't that bad. The guys (hobos from seasonal work) who used to go from town to town on the back of railroad cars before WW2 would cook stuff like this. Ingenius and cheap meal. No refridge required.
