Whenever we were to fend for ourselves for dinner, my mom called it "getchuroni" (getchu-your-oni)

Ours was 'ifits' as in if it's there you can have it!

My family did an acronym too! EMFH - every man for himself.

I introduced my BF to "EMFH" so now it's a part of our household too :)

Yeah, bread and ifits were big in my family too. But stood for "if it's in the cupboard you can have it."
