ETA to Chili Dog 30 minutes. And how I did this in way so much more Mom-From-Maine, than my actual Mom-From-Maine, or she'd be so "Fuck, yeah", 'cept I never hear swear, once, not even a "dammit!" because she's so undramatic.

Chili Beans. $4.99. Container+lid 20 cents. Portioned out into 8, you go that's seven! The eighth is cooking right not. Six frozen, one not. Use that one, replace with a frozen one taken out. These are not optimal, you'll have to spice them a bit.

Cheese. I'm buying 1 pound blocks of "cheese" for $6.00. Then keep some grated, as needed. Don't keep grating off the same block and put it back. That's gross! And think what they have to do to make grated cheese stay separate before you buy it?Not normal state.

Hot dogs. Mid-range. But they say "Hollywood" on them, so is that why I bought them? (yes). Packaged out 3-per, a size I'll use in a week, or so, and 2 frozen. You can also start with frozen dogs, if you wanted, my Mom-From-Maine jumps in and says.

Buns. 12 and so cheap who cares. One taken out for tonight, the package in the freezer because then they'll be put in bags 3-per and easier to do that when they're frozen. BTW, that bag is wet with bleach/water, because I disinfected all before I brought out of garage.

Now cooking, but I cheated and microwaved it first, so don't have to wait so long, but let the flavors blend. I'll retweet this thread with the end results when done, and you'll go you're so because I don't have one!
