Update, lunch wasn't to bad and almost a balance meal, ingredients: pork (what part) water, salt, modified potato starch, sugar and a healthy dose of sodium nitrite - yum. I can't wait to try PJs box cars.  Undecided Undecided

I ussually bring some Tyson foil pouch chicken.
It can really spuce up a quick or late dinner of noodles or rice.
It tastes a little preserved, but generally speaking it's not all that bad.

I used to be able to get foil packed cooked ground beef at Wal-Mart stores but not any more and I haven't been able to find it other places. Any body else been able to find it?

Don't get me wrong, I love the foil packed meat idea.  We are taking some crab and shrimp packs with us along with a powdered alfredo sauce and noodels, maybe a glass of wine, candles ...might be somewhat romantic. Kiss  I can't think of a better place to have a nice dinner.
Now spam on the other hand, never could convince myself that it was something I wanted to eat.  I do not like fat and trim all my meat very lean, therefore spam has been a tough sell to my body.

Kingfisher, I was looking for the ground beef last week also and did not see it.

It's probably no worse than a hot dog. (FWIW - I like 'em but more than one hot dog will literally make my head spin. Not in a good way either.) Fried SPAM is actually pretty good IMO. We used to bring it in case the fishing sucked. Even when people knew what they were eating some even requested it on future trips. One vegetarian turned it down on principle as being 'red meat'...

Unfortunately, it probably doesn't come in individual serving sizes. I'd take it if it did.

Well db start looking at your local supermarket I was able to find them at a Publix here in Fla. or you can order it on line at (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links) sniff around the site it's a hoot. Check out the Spam Museum it's located in Austin Minnesota this internet is something else the things you can learn.

The Spam site IS a hoot!  I especially like the section "What is Spam" and the explanation of sodium nitrate is awesome!  I may have to try some of those singles next trip. Only thing missing is Monty Python . . .

Question: "How long does Spam last?"  Answer: "It's like meat with a pause button!"  Grin

Hmmm. I have an allergy to pork - probably really to pork fat. If I eat hot dogs made with pork I start feeling ill about 20 minutes later and never completely recover until it has cleared my system. Bacon and pork chops can get me so sick that I can hardly bear being in the sun (severe headaches). Probably why my ex-mother-in-law used to make refried beans with bacon fat  Shocked.

But, since I know it won't kill me, I eat all of that stuff anyway, because it is goooood. And I can thoroughly enjoy it for about 20 minutes.

For some reason, Spam doesn't seem to hurt me when I eat it  Huh.

I'm thinking that maybe we are twins, separated at birth  :question :question :question.
