1. I don't think you fully comprehend the meaning of this word "pleasure."

2. Blasphemy!!!
A great cheeseburger
is a labor of love resulting
in an edible work of art.

Canned!?!?! Pfffffft.

:D

5. The best burger that I've ever had
was one made with Waygu beef (think Kobe without it being raised in Japan) with a black truffle aioli - I made them for dinner last night and they were tasty!

I tried them with a sharp cheddar but the cheese overwhelmed the Waygu.

3. Um, right...
It looks like this is designed for back-packers. Just what we need: more "convenient" packaging to either litter our trails or get schlepped out to contribute to the landfill. Whatever happened to jerky and trail mix?

10. I wouldn't make it a core part of my backpacking menu,
but I think it would be awesome to pull one of these out halfway through a long trek. Those unusual/special meals scattered through a trip can be a lot of fun. (Assuming it tastes anything at all like a cheeseburger.) Anywy, I'm off to figure out where I can order that dehydrated red wine...

:)

4. I wouldn't go camping with it, but I might see how people would stock
some in a storm shelter perhaps.

7. They still require water and heat to prepare
I would go with my canned meats that can be eaten cold if necessary. Cold canned burger, blech!

8. yeah, still, we're not talking long-term fallout shelters. Many storm shelters
I've seen have cans of sterno and lots of water. I do agree with you, in essence, just saying that a storm shelter seems better than a backpack.

9. Point well taken, I'll probably even try one of these
if I can get my hands on one, I am adventurous when it comes to food.

6. I could've used those when I was in the army.
Looks much better than the MRE's I had, and better than the Lunch Buckets I took to avoid eating MRE's.

:D
