Is it just me, or....

MREs come with tobasco sauce in them. It ain't bacon, but almost anything tastes better with tobasco on it.

...is Dinty Moore stew quite possibly the best food on the planet?

The best? Well, lets just say that the wife knows NOT to let me run out. When it gets down to just a few cans left, it is time to RESTOCK the shelf.

My only question is, on the exploding meat like substance, how many times do you cut yours up, before you heat it up? I "try" to get around 6 chunks out of it, but most of the time my IMPATIENCE to get to diggin in, only lets me get it down to 3-4. Sometimes only get to cut them in half.....just can't wait. But then I better not forget the paper plate to cover the bowl, to keep the exploding parts in, or I WILL hear about it.

I'll just say;


Bacon ice cream..

[Bailey Guns]

Oh, man. My dogs LOVE bacon ice cream. I think it's called Frosty Paws. Yes...I tried it. Totally sucked. Like frozen, tasteless sawdust. A dog's tastebuds must be much more sensitive than mine.

Eewwww...imagine what other stuff they lick tastes like.

Two words...

Bacon flavored - mayonaise stuff, lip balm, air freshener, salts...

If it can be flavored by bacon, these bacontrepreneurs flavor it with bacon.

I think it's essential that each cube be cut in half. There are usually 4 or 5 cubes per can. I am meticulous about cutting the cubes. It can't be any other way.

Now...what about the usually large lump of white, coagulated lard that's at the bottom of the can. Does anyone NOT scrape that out and melt it into the stew?

My dog Riggs once ate and regurgitated the same lizard THREE times before I took it away from him.. Also, he ate one of these desert toads we have out here in the summer time. I don't know if they are hallucinogenic or not, but the poor bastard wasn't right for a week. Reptiles and amphibians must taste like bacon...

[Bailey Guns]

Riggs be trippin'.

[newracer]

Dinty Moore stew used to be good when it had actual meat in it. I am not sure what the brown chunks in it now are.

I've had chocolate covered bacon before. A friend had a bacon party where everyone had to bring a different bacon based food item.

I screw up cooking bacon in a frying pan too easily, so I just do it the lazy way and deep fry the bacon.

[GreenScoutII]

Deep fried bacon you say? That might be the best idea in the history of mankind! I'm gonna do it right now!
