Other suspected victims of the dung-disher in the past few days include

The reporter should get an award for that line...

This gives a whole new meaning to "You are what you eat."...

THAT'S IT!!!!!

The next time I go to NY, I'm packing a cooler.

Or, raiding Barry's well-stocked refigerator.

If the "dung-disher" had done this to Chipped Beef Gravy on Toast, aka **** on a Shingle, no one would have been able to tell the difference.

You know I had never heard that term for chipped beef "Sh*t on a Shingle" before a few days ago. Is that a form of "New York Slang"?

KatyD,

It's a military term, although there may be others who refer to that mess as such.

New Yorkers probably have there own colorful term for it.

Military slang, as far as I know. My dad picked up that expression during his Army Air Corps service (WWII).

Of course, we called it "SOS" at my house when we were kids.

Oh yes. Okay, someone else explained the same thing to me a few days ago, and that person also happens to be from New York. Gee, wonder what the military called that other "Mom Favorite" Tuna Noodle Casserole.

I think we're getting a little astray of the topic, veering off to discuss foods that merely taste like crap rather than foods with actual crap on them.

Nope, made my own, turkey, tomato, and avocado. But I'm very impressionable; I think it was the avocado that cinched it.
