My grocery bill was $37 under budget this week because I found a dented can sale and my garden gave me six zucchinis.

Debate: is the real win the money saved, or the weird pride from eating a meal built entirely from marked-down and homegrown stuff?

Exactly, victory pasta is the whole point.

Oh, it's the pride, for sure. The money's nice, but it's temporary. That feeling of making a whole meal out of stuff you grew or that weird can nobody else wanted... that sticks with you. It's like you beat the system for a night. You're not just eating pasta, you're eating victory pasta with slightly dented tomato sauce.
