I know, I know, >hard to imagine. Thank you for the link. I've never heard of it in my entire, well read life, but then, I haven't heard of hundreds, (maybe thousands), of other obscure medical conditions, so it's not unusual to have not heard about this one. From your link: Dislocation of the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is located just in front of the lower part of the ear. This joint allows the lower jaw to move. It is a ball-and-socket joint, just like the hip or shoulder. When the mouth opens wide, the ball (called the condyle) comes out of the socket and moves forward. It goes back into place when the mouth closes. The TMJ becomes dislocated when the condyle moves too far. Then, it can get stuck in front of a section of bone called the articular eminence. The condyle can't move back into place. This happens most often when the ligaments that normally keep the condyle in place are somewhat loose. The surrounding muscles often go into spasm and hold the condyle in the dislocated position. |

When I was in the Navy 78-84 SOS was either chipped beef on toast or ground beef on toast. Either one was called SOS. I figure thinking it was one or the other must have been a matter of the individual unit or even the cooks assigned to that unit because I saw the exact same overlap at an Air Force base I was at for a month (Okinawa) as well as a multi-service base I was at for a month that happened to have mostly Marines as cooks (Willow Grove, PA). |

I use a lot of garlic, so maybe that was it.

I remember the SOS wars here where people advocated only one was typical navy or air force/corps. In fact, I'd never heard of the hamburger version... hell, I didn't know creamed chipped beef on toast was called SOS - period. -- Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground. |

Back when it was fashionable to use canned or jarred ingredients in recipes, "chili sauce" was one such ingredient and it appeared in any level of restaurant or cookbook. Julia Child, James Beard, etc. all would call for it as an ingredient. Restaurants even good ones would include it in a dish. It meant the Heinz, Del Monte or Durkee product. It had some capsicum in it, but not much. sf's recipe for putting up jars of the stuff when you had a peck of tomatos on hand makes sense. You would get a better result for cheaper. (Although, the jarred product back then was probably also better than what is sold now.) The headset today is that you're a slacker if you use an off-the-shelf prepared product as part of a recipe. There is no right or wrong here. Steve |

I can't imagine using chipped beef, which requires extra processing steps to preserve the beef, when grinding up some freshly slaughtered cow meat will suffice. nb |

Yup, scrambled eggs can be bird shit, and not disparengingly either. Any food that looks like shit served on toast is SOS... can be chipped creamed beef, hamburger in cream sauce, and hamburger in red sauce like sloppy joe... also quartered hard cooked eggs in white sauce... there is no one kind of SOS. Can be ground canned ham in white sauce too, very popular with the rebels... but looks more like vomit than shit. |

The grubbermint couldn't care less what military grub costs and they take first choice so it's the best of the best... and in fact creamed chipped beef is the most expensive meal the military serves... during the early '60s it ran the military like $8/lb... USDA Prime fillet mignon ran the military like $1.25/lb. When replenishing at see often more USDA Prime went over the side than could fit in the freezer locker... the sooner the supply ships could empty out the sooner those guys got liberty. |

Washington, DC and Washington state seem like completely different places to me. Yet they share a name. New York City and New York state, too. Buffalo, NY and Buffalo, WY. Pasadena, CA and Pasadena, TX. It works for more than places, too. Ship of dreams. ship of state. Neither actually boats on the water. Names are beyond the kenn of folks who try to make sense of them. I'll go with the principle that in the military everything is called sh*t and toast gets called shingles even when it's biscuits not toast. Getting brown gravy on bisquits called SOS is bizarre even for a military chow hall, but I remember it happening. Once. I think enough laughed that it wasn't called that the next time. |
