      The translations in incorrect:
      It should be something like: The torture we do to the pototo is worse than what Britishers (angrez) had done to Pakistanis as the colonisers.
      Pakistan was part of British empire and there are some bad things has done towards the local population which he's comparing to the potato.
      Pakistanis ( Indians as Britishers called them) were sent to different military missions, workers sent to far of lands as indentured labourers, labours have to work longer hours and jad to bonded labours - they just can't quit whatever they are doing, which is very close to slavery, artificial droughts and forced agriculture of opium, tabacco, cotton and indigo, etc etc

Grandmother canned peaches and sent them by train for her sister, when the canned peaches arrived the jars had broken. Her sister in the letter laments the loss of those peaches. Also, my husband's father was delaying going to university to raise pigs to pay for his schooling. The pig market crashed and he did not make the money he needed.

      Some of the most iconic dishes in the world were born out of necessity, like coq au vin in France or polenta in Italy. Since the introduction of frozen and ready-made meals, people have gotten a strange sort of diet, though. Most people treat dandelions as a nuisance for example, but dandelion greens are one of the healthiest and most nutritionally dense foods you can eat.

      @@johnr797 We eat a lot of polenta here in south eastern Europe and I can confirm that it is viewed as a regular person type of food, simple and tasty, inexpensive. When I was little, my grandmother used to pour milk into the pot we previously cooked polenta, and it was like a dessert for me. We didn't have the most expensive things, but she always tried to brighten my days and make the most of what we had. Some people put sugar on bread and butter, eat polenta with heavy cream and strawberries or plum jam, fry tomatoes along with with onions and tomato sauce and spices, this is eaten with bread or polenta. Everyone knows these snacks in my area and people make them when they cannot afford expensive things but want a delicious and quick meal or snack.

    My mother was born the last year of the Great Depression, my father was born a year earlier. My mother grew up in poverty, in the projects in San Francisco during WWII. Her father worked in the Navy Shipyards as a painter. I will never forget how my grandmother saved things like rubber bands, and was very frugal. My mother liked nice things as an adult, my father was a good provider. I had no idea how spoiled rotten I was until I moved out on my own at 17, a few years after my father died. The way these wise folks had nothing but kind things to say brought me to tears once again.

    "We would think of the kids first."
    Sadly, many of the poorest families during the depression sold some of their children to feed the others or sold them all to wealthier homes so they would (hopefully) be better cared for. It brought shame upon them, but there wasn't much else they could do, as there was no work available for so, so many.

    When it comes to potatoes, Americans probably have as many methods of preparing them as y'all do!
    Let's see...
    Boiled, baked, twice baked, scalloped, au gratin, potato cakes or fritters, fried (such as French fries), home fries, tater tots, creamed, mashed (or "smashed"), potato soup, dumplings, bread and potato salad...
    Oh my goodness! It's getting difficult to think of everything I've either seen or made myself from or with potatoes. 😂
    It's definitely a versatile root vegetable and to be honest, I don't know many people who don't like some type of potato dish. I have met a few, but it's VERY few... at least of the people that I know!

As a child, I did not realize for a long time we were poor. For many years, we were given canned food and nonperishables and thought it was normal. I came to like chili con carne.
    We may not have been suffering from any Depression, but it did feel strange when we became financially stable enough to not require charity food any longer. Suddenly, we were buying fresh food. I found myself missing the canned food for a long time, ha ha.

    A popular Depression food my grandparents had as kids was cabbage and bacon.
    Bacon was cheap to get at the time, so they took some and cut it up in bite size pieces and cooked it, took some cabbage that was also cheaply available and sliced it up. Put the chopped cabbage in the pot that the bacon is cooking in and occasionally stir till the cabbage is fully cooked, and serve!
    My grandparents passed it down to my dad and siblings when they hit rough times in the 60’s, and my dad cooked it when we hit rough times when i was a kid. Nowadays, since bacon is now expensive, its a special treat.

    Peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches were another depression era food for children... My father grew up on them and loved them... He passed that love of them on to me...I know they sound weird but, they are delicious.

    As a kid my Mom still made depression food she ate as a kid and I still make. (1) diced potatoes and hotdogs fried. (2) 'Slop' elbow noodles w/ canned tomatoes, grnd. beef and canned sweet corn. Still taste awesome!

    I was thinking, how about some good old country food for them to try? You could start with Fried Green Tomatoes with Ranch dressing to dip in, then move on to maybe some Chicken Fried Steak, then finish it off with some Sugar Cream Pie. That would be fun!
    Or how about typical American cookout food? Throw down on some BBQ Beef Short Ribs, Potatoe Salad, some Grilled Green Beans, Cole Slaw, and some grilled Pineapple slices coated in brown sugar so they caramelize and then throw a sccop of vanilla ice cream on top! Good stuff!

    the depression is a history lesson for most people. My mother lived in Eastern Montan, ate bacon grease on toast sandwiches, radish and butter sandwiches, and lots and lots of eggs because they had their own chickens............ potatoes 7 days a week, meat once a week........she wore hand-me-down shoes with cardboard to fill the holes, and hand-me-down clothes....... and ate asparagus they picked out of the local slough. For Christmas, the big treat in their stocking was......... an orange. My mother always put an orange in our stockings at Christmas as homage to the Depression and her own upbringing, hoping we'd understand where our family started and where we ended up. And we did, and still put an orange in our stockings, understanding that these people sacrificed so much for an orange for each child. The United States in 1929-1939 was a 3rd world country with millions of people eeking out a miserable existence in their little towns all over America. So when you hear whining 20 year olds complaining about 1st world technology problems......... I know from the source what actual hardships are.

    My father and aunt were born shortly before the GD and that time was their early childhood. They were very fortunate and always had food. My dad told me Grandmother would make big ham sandwiches for the men who came to the kitchen door asking for food and they would eat them in four or five giant bites. They also did yard work and other heavier work for a nickel, about the cost of a loaf of bread at the time.

    My grandparents suffered during the Great Depression. The era was so saddening that they rarely spoke of it, because they wanted to enjoy their lives without reliving the bad memories. Thank you so much for making this video. This keeps the memory of my grandparents' strength and fortitude alive. 😊🤗

    There are other more common depression era foods that have lingered with Americans all this time. There are Pies made out of wild fruits, casseroles, macaroni and cheese, salads made with foraged greens like dandelions, Hoover Stews, Egg Drop Soup, Chocolate Creme Pie and Rice Pudding.
