What the heck is gruel anyway?

[Mark F]

Had to ask.  I have not really been poor...been broke a few times.  Does it taste like tasty wheat?

Originally dropped a curse word in the subject, sorry about that!

[Janean L]

It tastes like nasty porridge. In fact, it is nasty porridge. 

Grey, cold, oatmeal-like stuff. REALLY bad Cream of Wheat.

Gruel is very thin sometimes cooked cereal. Not tasty.

It's what you feel like you've been subsisting on after reading through a partiularly grueling forum thread (even it is entertaining in a morbid, can't-look-away kind of way).

I wish I hadn't tapped out so fast. I would have liked to see who ended up eating the gruel. 

[Mark F]

The mods deleted it so I think they did. Good call though.

I was just there for the popcorn anyhow.

Careful. If you have non-gruel food, I think you're admitting to being a jackal, and receiving top secret high paying jobs that Upwork hides from the regular freelancers.

I have pistachios and honey dew melon too. Guess I'm part of the problem.
