I must say, the regular potted meat is ok.

But for a RARE taste treat, try "ENDANGERED MEAT".

I actually like potted meat.  On toast with plenty of mustard.

Of course, my favorite is fried weenie sandwiches with mustard.   :rock

Actually, potted meat has a lot in common with hotdogs.










Title: Re: Potted Meat
Post by: Angus on June 15, 2008, 10:21:56 AM
And hotdogs are made from sweep-ups from the meat packing plant  :devil

(Oh, one of my jobs was actually cleaning up in a meat industry, at night )

That makes another  :devil :devil

Best to buy straight from the farmer. The most I know are honest folks!

When i was in the Marines, during bootcamp we had vietnam era C-rations and the potted meat was horrible cold but not bad warmed up. Then when they switched to MRE's the one meal packet you dreaded getting was the pork loaf. :cry They finally discontinued it as it was found to create gas/intestinal problems in pilots under G forces. The thing looked like a dried t*rd in a package. :(
The 2 best were the spaghetti and the chow mien type packets.

you gotta be joking.
I remember getting 10 cans for a buck. last time I bought any was 5 cans a buck. was overpriced then, only reason I quit buying them.
I do like potted meat sammich, goes well with a mater sammich.
sardines are going up too. soon won't be able to afford the poor man's seafood either.

poking a small hole in the bottom of a potted meat can, works well as chum.

yep that is true.
best tasting thing I ever ate was a mudpie and the best drink was creek water downstream from the neighbor's cows watering hole.

most people don't have the slightest clue, what poor is.
I remember those days very well.
we had fun by having foot races in the neighbor's plowed field after a real heavy rain.
we sunk to the knees easy in the mud and got covered head to toe.
yep we was poor but we still had some fun.

my Old Man had a nick name in those days. he was called Mud Duck, he never got stuck up in the mud.
thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Thats a food product you know. On the back label where it says protein, thats what the protein comes from

I remember very well going on vacation in the mid 1960's with Gulf gas station orange horseshoes on the windows (two and 3 mile caravans of military vehicles on the highway everywhere) and stopping for lunch and having mom crack open the ice chest.

Our fare consisted of:  potted meat, deviled ham, vienna sausages, tuna, and crackers.

There's nothing better than sitting at a roadside table in the Great Smokey Mountain National Park at 5,000' elevation eating tuna & crackers.  Seems every phreeking bear for 1,000 miles shows up and scares the bejeebus out of everyone.

Also nothing like Vienna Sausages that's been in an ice chest so that the liquid turns to a snot-like substance.  Thanks mom!

I liked potted meat sandwiched as a kid.  Then again, I never read labels back then either.

Three cheers for pot pies!

My older brother and i went camping one time.  I was in charge of food for a week.  I wanted stuff that was easy to make and wouldn't spoil.

To this day we tell tell the story of the Dinty Moore Beef Stew we both threw away.   :rofl

yessir that there is Sunday dinner, when we could afford it, back in them days.

Hardee's and Kentucky Fried Chicken was considered fancy eating places. (only thing in town for years and years)
way back then, it was a very rare treat to go to town just to eat at those fancy food places. alway dressed in our best Church clothes just to go eat at them places. sometimes we went to the 5 and dime store, just to see what they had. all the clothes we had that wasn't handmade came through mail order. Sears and Roebuck, yep Roebuck, lotta youngins ain't never heard tell of Roebuck.

I'd say some of yas may think I'm nuts.

but believe this, not everyone was born with a silverspoon in their mouths.
some had steel spoons. some had copper spoons. some had wood spoons. some had a stick whittled into a spoon. some had clam shells for spoons.
some had no spoons atall.


I guess I'm done rambling for now, got to get in the bed.

Sears? We couldn't afford that fancy stuff. Monkey Wards was what I wore if I got new clothes at all.

One of my earliest memories is living (yes, living) in a roadside park. My older sisters would hold up a blanket while I stood in a wash pan and Mom poured icy cold water over me.
