Cow's milk and potatoes.

That sounds fun.

replace potatoes with bananas and this died is awesome. a big shake a day will keep you going
did it for me when I was an even poorer fuck than I am now

my current fav budget menu: boiled potatoes with curd cheese and chives. melt butter on top and it's perfect

Where the hell do you people learn to cook? I don't even have any mandatory life-skills classes in my high school, I haven't one since 6th grade.

Do you have parents?

If not, interwebs.

We had classes in highschool called "Home Econimics".

It involves cooking, sewing, gardening, basic layout of a fish and chicken farm, cleaning fish, and butchering animals if the school can afford it.

Basic layout of a fish and chicken farm? Wuh.

Yes.

You put the chicken cage/pen or whatever it's called above the fish pond so that the chicken poop falls into the water and the fish eats them.

Or RTFM, there are plenty around.

If you really are committed, pick a couple recipes you like, simplify them, and make them until you're satisfied. then you can start learning how spices affects the outcome.

Not all of them will be enjoyable, I assure you, but you should eat them anyway and persist, because when you eat something strange you will remember the flavor much easily and it will come useful, because maybe one day you will be cooking something and you'll remember the spice flavor and you'll start coming up with new associations that work.

I have some italian simplified dishes that almost always work wherever you are and you can use as a base to learn your own. Interested?
