If you buy a koolaid pack that isn't one of those, you're just fooling yourself.

Powdered Milk. Mixes up good enough with water. Old fashioned oatmeal is very good as well (keeps the bowels moving as well). Rice and beans combined provide nearly same breakdown as meet. Egg substitutes.
+1 on the peanut butter.

- Bread, cheap cheese, and some veggies. Make various grilled cheeses all day. I like tomato and broccolli.
- Hit the donut shop when they get rid of the stale ones, and have them for breakfast.
- Kool-Aid. It has vitamin C.
- Have a friend who works at a pizza place "accidentally" burn a pizza, and be there when they are about to get rid of it.
- Rice and beans. You can eat a lot for cheap. |

But seriously though, Ramen noodles.
Possibly the cheapest meal you can find at the supermarket. |

Well, I've never found any shrimp in the ones I've eaten, so I figure the manufacturer operates on the assumption that a shrimp can be anywhere at any time in the quantum universe. So they put a shrimp in the first cup they made, and it has a probability amplitude of being in your cup at the time you open it. See also Quantum Beef and Quantum Chicken Cup Noodles.
