Behold the CANDWICH.
(http://eater.com/uploads/candwich-for-sale.jpg)
The Candwich, the sandwich in a can, the stuff of viral dreams (or nightmares), is finally for sale. Only the peanut butter and grape jelly variety is available (BBQ Chicken and peanut butter and strawberry jelly are coming soon), and it'll set you back $12 for a 4-pack or $72 for a 24-pack (US shipping included).
According to the website, the Candwich "is the perfect product for people on the go such as students, construction workers, soccer moms and outdoor enthusiasts." It does not require refrigeration and has a long shelf life, and as such it is "perfect for emergency food storage needs in the event of natural disasters." Also, it is "great tasting."

It makes me both curious and sickened at the same time. lol
LOL! I'll be sure to NOT show that to our 9 year old son who just loves PB&J's! :D
Sick.
And.
Wrong.
Eww! It sounds like MRE's!
All you need to add is a box of Twinkies and a can of Pringles... ;) :D
Scary...honestly I'd rather do what I always do. Make food ahead of time, put it in vacum sealed bags and freeze them to boil when ready to eat.
That's just crazy!
YES! I will definitely be sending them my credit card information and bank account number. I'm in...sane.
That's like those Heater Meals.

I do a lot of emergency prep conferences and asked the guy once what they tasted like. He said they were OK, but if that's the only food you have then it tastes a lot better! ;D
Those might be ok.. but I want real food.
I saw beer in a can the other day - ???

Yuck! If it
must be individually packaged, it should be in glass.

Oh, I don't know Merlin. I like those cans of beer they have that hold 15.5 gallons... :)
Shhhh, the makers of Surly might hear you! I swore by bottles until I had their beer. Good beer can be found canned. I was frightened to learn this.
But pb&j in a can? Sounds like a sign of the apocalypse.
What scares me is the "shelf-stable" bread! I mean... what kind of "bread" doesn't MOLD?!? :o
First we had real cheese
then we had real imitation cheese
then we had cheese food
then we had imitation cheese food
Does that last one bring us back to real cheese.
We live in a world where lemonade is made with artificial flavoring and furniture polish is made with real lemons. I don't remember the author.

The difference between can and keg is implied....
I am probably the only weirdo on this forum that would admit I am actually kinda interested in the canwich just as soon as they get the BBQ Chicken out and about. lol... and I happen to like MRE's and Heatermeals.... we got our first heatermeals during Hurricane Ike in Orange TX. They came with a novelty factor too, the self-heating bags were just fascinating to me. ::)
Life is so much more fun when one is simple minded. ;D
