Shit on a Shingle (SOS) is a US military food term — unofficial, of course! It is a dish consisting of a cream sauce with meat in it poured over toast. It is often served as a breakfast dish. There are some variations, though, and what it means exactly can depend upon which branch of military service it is being served in. I'm the cook in our house, but I get breakfast cooked for me twice a year (my birthday and anniversary).
