Advice on feeding 16 kids...

[Maddy McCall]

They are getting tired of Hamburger Helper, ramen noodles, and pinto beans.

And it costs us $75 to get Sad Meals at McDonalds.

Can someone give us advice?

:silly:

1. Battles to the death: losers get eaten.

:hide:

[Maddy McCall]

3. Oooooo....SICK!

I like it! :D

[DanCa]

2. Pizza and all you can eat buffettes?

[Maddy McCall]

5. Buffets are satanic. Gluttony, you know. Must resist temptation.

Pizza is from that devil country of Italy. Sorry, no can do.

[DanCa]

8. I cant eat at buffets

I just keep thinking of all those nasty kids sticking there fingers in the potatos.

4. Tell 'em to get jobs at McDonalds and sweatshops.

They need to support you now.

[Maddy McCall]

6. Actually, they're making pot holders and bird houses .

They sell them at church socials to support their shoe habit. Yes, the little parasites demand SHOES! I don't know why. They never go anywhere, being homeschooled and all.

11. When the girls hit puberty

you can sell them off to much older male church members. I'm sure they'll want a young girl to breed as many children w/ as possible.

[Maddy McCall]

13. Well, little Jabobafet is almost 12.

At 12, she becomes marryin' material. Yeah, we're looking into that option.

You know what they say. Old enough to...well, never mind.

27. Get 'em young, raise 'em up like a bird dog.

20. Let them eat the shoes, if they like 'em so much.

Fun fact: leather is edible. Just boil it for a few hours in some salt water. Economical, too. There are probably a lot of worn-out and outgrown shoes around the house; this way they're good for something.

7. Spaghetti's cheap

And there's always good old macaroni and cheese. Stew? You can use cheap cuts of meat and lots of vegetables. Sloppy Joe's? Shepherd's Pie?

That's a lot of kids to feed and I know how kids eat. That's all I can think of off hand. Might be time to jack a deer and feed 'em venison.

[Maddy McCall]

9. Shepherd's Pie! That's something I can add to the menu.

It sounds Christlike.

Can't do spaghetti. See post above. It's from Italy and Italy is devil country.

[pdx_prog]

10. Get one of these.....

[Maddy McCall]

14. I can't. That Lust thingy is a mortal sin...

My wife might not appreciate that pretty piggy hanging around the house.

[Spider Jerusalem]

12. Cold gruel and a crust of bread.

[Maddy McCall]

15. That's Saturday night's menu.

We would add honey to the gruel, but, again, we have to be careful of the Gluttony thing.

18. Believe me, I've been tempted.

Must avoid temptation.

17. Survival of the Fittest. . .the weakest child gets killed and eaten until

your family resembles a family and not a litter.

[Maddy McCall]

19. Don't be talking that evolution stuff in this thread.

We are Creationists. Period.

Evolution is satanic.

[SammyBlue]

21. I'm Jewish. . .we don't believe in Hell or Satan.

I'm an apostate, an infidel, a sinner and a heathen.

22. Sell some of them for medical research

or you can do what my dad did, when he was trying to feed 13 kids on a janitor's salary - raise cows, pigs, chickens, and a vegetable garden.

I've shoveled my share of shit, that's for sure.

[merh]

23. Grilled cheese samwiches and tomato soup.

Good ole peanut butter and jelly samwiches.

chili - meatloaf (big meatloafs) - fish sticks - tuna casseroles

Take it from me (I'm from a family of 9) - you may get tired of the same ole, same ole, but you eat it when you are hungry. x( You also eat very quickly, in the hopes of getting seconds before it all runs out. (It took me years to slow down my eating. :crazy: )

24. Food stamps!

30. It must cost an arm and a leg to eat like that

All those canned and processed things for a huge family. It would be cheaper to make more things from scratch, for that many people.

[WeRQ4U]

26. Feed bags filled with raw vegetables.

Like horses.

[UncleSepp]

28. Feeding them to what?

[RedstDem]

29. Tell Them To Fan Out Across The Neighborhood
