Nutrigrain bars, ramen noodles(soup in general) and arizona ice tea. Is a Start, bring your own tea? Or left overs is always good. Make a sandwich or even better get your girl to make you 2.

Try to discreetly eat the food before you get to the counters where you are supposed to pay.  Order something that they are out of and need to cook freshly like a burger.  Once the burger comes put it down somewhere and don't buy it (after taking a bite of course.)  While you wait you can probably drink most of a gatorade, eat most of a bag of chips, eat a bunch of fries, and maybe even some pizza.  Finishing said items will draw attention as will leaving half eaten items but you gotta do what you gotta do.


I actually advise you to ignore that advice for the most part and just try and make sure you visit the food court/cafeteria at its busiest time and just eat one thing while you wait in line to pay for the food and then actually pay for the rest.  Thats the non dirtbag way to do it.  Chicken fingers are good munching them and just paying for the fries is recommended thats definitely an oldie but a goodie.

lately I have been taking a bag of cereal and a gallon of milk, then taking a spoon and a bowl from the cafeteria for free. Then for lunch a banana and peanut butter sandwich or pbj.

I can't take ramen anymore.

Well mexican is the cheapest by far. If you cook up some rice, beans and meat with spices ahead of time, throw it in a bag and bring some tortillas you can make burritos for next to nothing.

Also PB&J eggos are the shit- toast two eggos of your choice and then use them to make a PB&J. The little squares hold in all the goodies and the crispyness from being toasted helps keep it from becoming mush.

We made a few pounds of spaghetti in the middle of the lodge at crotched for the video park in 09 ish? Felt pretty hood. Hot plate and a huge pot just gettin fresh as fuck. Leftovers went into a walmart bag for later.


Pbj are pretty solid if you can still eat them. I survived on nothing but those everyday for years at the mountain and have trouble eating them now but they're cheap and they stay nicely.

If you have a grill make some grilled cheese or if you're feeling rich some burgers or dogs. Can sling a few around lunch time in the lots too.

Yah Chalet vulturing works surprisingly well. Most of the time people are so disgusted that you are even asking that they will just give you the food even if they are not done.

Ive also pulled half finished poutine from tables/garbage and returned it because there was "too much gravy" and gotten fresh ones before.

Normally ill just bring mr noodles though and use their water, bowls etc... 0.39$ meal right there.

Ramen cups and granola. Drink water only.

Surprised no one has suggested the poor man's tomato soup made from ketchup, hot water and pepper. Shits gross though.

nature valley bars and babybels. probs not cheap but that's what I munch on on the hill. once a brought a bag of lettuce, probably looked pretty sketchy when I ate it.

just make pb&j, bring some fruit, or you know, just ramen.

water though, because anything else is too expensive
