Around here they use to call it Poverty Meal because the ingredients and recipe were given out at local food pantries. When I was a Jaycee, we would deliver packages to shut ins, or older folks with no transpertation from the local food pantry once a week. When we had this in their bundles a couple ladies would giggle and then there were a few that got , well, lets say a bit hot under the collar and offended. But that was ok...so long as they got the fixins for a hot meal, a little pride saving was cool in my book LOL.
