poor man’s lunch

Exactly how it sounds. When you’re a broke college student and can’t afford to pay for food, so you put some free items from the student center food court together and call it a meal.
What did you eat today?

I snagged saltine crackers from the student center Quiznos and a few sauces from Chick-Fil-A right next to it to dip the crackers in.

Damn, that’s a poor man’s lunch.

Yeah, looking forward to my ice soup for dinner.
