Hungry? Probably after this thread...

Guess I'll have to get out and see about picking up one of them new fangled MRE's to see what they are like. I really didn't mind the c rat's and could cook up some real good meals if you fried and mixed the right stuff together. and always got to finish off with a malted milk ball mixing stuff together. I still have my good old John Wayne.

Wow! No offense Joe, but you don't get out much do you?

I have a lot of sardines in the storage room. I have both but prefer the packed in mustard. Can not take the packed in catsup! Ugh!!!
I also have a goodly supply of smoked oysters, my favorite, and kippered snacks. A kind of lightly smoked herring fillets.

No offense taken! Just never met anyone who ate sardines

Which kind of sardines do you prefer? I've literally never had them.

Well, it's 4:00 AM and no sleep so I was having random thoughts and came up with, if I was a canned fish neub I'd try the Kippered snacks first. They are mild yet flavorful! Try a can with your favorite crackers and a beer! Great stuff! I like King Oscar brand, but there are many others.

As a PS, if you like canned salmon, it's one of the longest lasting canned foods around. Personally, I can't gut the stuff, but I'm in the minority.

I'll make note of that next time I go to the store. Is it widely available?

I can already hear the girlfriend complaining

 

[SIGAHOLIC]

Yes, any decent sized store will have them! The GF will love them!

At least we're not talking about this stuff!

Exactly. When I first heard of it I read about it and barely kept my lunch down.

A steady diet of anything would spur my creative juices into finding alternatives. Maybe even have me looking at your dog real close stewed up with some cattail root and wild onion. To sort of answer your question; At least a week or two. I Had my fill of Government cuisine (MRI) so longer than I could eat that stuff. At one point, the best part of the MRI was the Lucky Strikes.

Ditto on the Luckies!

I found a bargain on new MRE's that so guy was liquidating for some obscure reason. I bought 90 days worth and have them packed in coolers, lids taped shut in an inside closet. They were 1 year from current when I bought them.
I have used MRE's when I go on Deer or Elk hunts. Keeps it simple, water, coffee, Jameson's, MRE's and bedding.
