Even if you don’t want to make it, I’ve never been in a supermarket that doesn’t offer a fresher option. I’ve even been in gas stations that offer what they at least claim is fresh potato salad.

Maybe if you really, really wanted potato salad and you were in a food desert but the corner 7-11 has canned potato salad you might buy it, but I’ve never seen this before in my life.

I don’t get it.

      If society collapses and all we have left to eat is canned potato salad, I’m leaving the fallout shelter.

        I’d only leave the Vault if I can become a Knight in the Brotherhood of Steel.

          Bad news: you get to be one of the Khans.

          (Fallout stopped with 2. I will fight you if you say otherwise.)

            I’ve only played 4 and watched the show. I really liked Maximus and Paladin Danse. Except when Danse is being racist against Strong.

              The show had a lot more to do with the first two games than I expected. Shady Sands and the New California Republic are from them.

        It may not be that bad, and it’s probably just as healthy as all the other junk we eat. The only way to tell is if you… try it.

        But I probably have no right to comment on this. I just ate dry ramen a few minutes ago.

          Dry ramen is a whole thing. I can see the appeal of it as a weird form of crunchy snack, But you have stuff like this:

          And I admit, I really don’t get it.

              Haha, sadly still not eating, but I can still appreciate (or not appreciate) the concepts.

              Tasty food to me is often something from India or China… really almost anywhere in Asia. But dry ramen isn’t really a thing in Japan, is it?

            Wait, people eat uncooked ramen noodles? That sounds vile, even without it being a ludicrous replacement for bread on a sandwich.

        so, good news, we have enough canned potato salad for the next year. Um, I’m going to check to radiation levels outside. Don’t you want a Geiger counter? Naw, I’m good
