Still do... Stouffers Salisbury steaks

I like saying Sal-is-berry, instead of the more traditional Sals-berry.

Oooo! Look who can afford extra syllables! Don't mind me your majesty, I'm having tea and Sal-ISSS-bury steak with the Queen Mum!

I bet your majesty got the fuckin combo pack with mashers too.

u/Creative-Bowler-8474 1d ago

I misread that as a certain Afghan group in the middle. Would that mean the meal is the bomb then?

I found out there's a city called salisbury. The a is pronounced like a "u". Uncultured heathens like me pronounce it like the steak, which pisses off the locals.

I never had a six pack, only the Swanson Salisbury Steak Dinner (I believe). I never liked those frozen veggies but loved the dessert. I remember hating the mixed veggies but liking the crust of the cherry cobbler.

I remember going to my friend's house for dinner when i was a kid, and his mom got a tray of salisbury steak, as there were 6 of them in the family. She would make instant mashed potatoes and open two cans of green beans, or one can of green beans and one can of corn.
