S.O.S. (appetizer)

S.O.S. is a traditional appetizer that originated in the United States. It is also known as "Shit on a Shingle" or "Same Old Stuff". The dish is typically made with a white sauce, often containing chipped beef, and served on toast.

History

The dish has its roots in the military, where it was a common meal due to the ease of its preparation and the availability of its ingredients. It became popular during World War II, when fresh meat was scarce and canned chipped beef was a readily available substitute.

Variations

There are many variations of S.O.S., including versions that use ground beef, sausage, or corned beef instead of chipped beef. Some versions also include cheese or are served over biscuits instead of toast.
