* The titular restaurant of ''WesternAnimation/Bob'sBurgers'' doesn't actually go in for this (Bob actually takes it as a point of pride to only procure finest quality beef, despite the expense to his struggling business), but his [[BrattyHalfPint kids]] often have fun acting as though it is, and the malicious health inspector will try to accuse him of such. One episode actually featured Bob trying out a cheaper meat supplier, who turned out to be illegally dealing in horse. [[SitcomArchNemesis Jimmy Pesto]] also sometimes alludes to using it in his own restaurant, as part of generally cheaping out on quality.

While padding recipes with ingredients you have too much of has gotten tarred as a cheap, underhanded tactic of the CampCook or cafeteria cook, in RealLife professional kitchens, even the chef at a fancy restaurant will seek to avoid food waste by incorporating ingredients into some dish before they go bad. So if the roast beef is on its last day, it may be incorporated into a meatloaf. If some vegetables are on their last day, they might get thrown into a stew or a stir-fry. That stale cake may be soaked in coffee and turned into tiramisu. With the high price of food, making use of everything rather than throwing it away is sound business sense (and good for the environment).
