Food Ideas for Winter Car Kit / GHB

[HoneyBadger]

I have a couple of Datrex boat rations stuffed under the back seat of my car that I replace every few years. I think the current ones have been there since 2011. I also have a few ziplock baggies full of animal crackers, cheerios, and other kid stuff for HB Jr. Any time I'm going outside of my usual commuting pattern, I grab a prepacked small or large B.O.B. Any time I drive into the mountains I bring the big B.O.B. Driving up to my in-laws' place in Parker, I usually grab the small one.

Otherwise, I keep extra jackets, boots, and towels in the car year round. In the winter months, I'll throw some gloves and a hat into the back. My B.O.B.s each have a proportionate amount of food in them, but I always intended to find food instead of carry it everywhere.

The above are all fine ideas.

I can add tuna or sardines in oil. The oil can be burned. Sardines are excellent cat bait. Swimming and land based.

I keep salmon in the pouches and some crackers. Adding some relish and ranch packets and you get gormet. Various cheese and peanut butter spreads.

Ive eaten 5 year old jerky before

Are you saying you eat land-cats? Not sure if serious.

Also interested to know if it tasted like stale plastic barrel.

I feel some foggy subliminal messaging, but I'm not sure what it is... Weird!

I have one that expired july of 2011 I'm going to snack on eventually. Feels like the vacuum is gone also.

I've been to quite a few asain households.....

Not all land cats are domestic.

Also sardines bait in racoons even in the city. So I'm told.

Yeah I'll go check the expiration dates on mine. We should have a "nasty old ration taste testing party" one of these days.

Done that. 14 YO MRE's have been tested and a bunch of canned goods have been tested. Most of the results would scare the soccer moms.
