Mountain House Adventure Meals - A LIVE prep & taste test of 4 freeze dried survival meals
Mountain House Adventure Meals - A LIVE prep & taste test of 4 freeze dried survival meals
In this episode of the man show, we try some of the Mountain House Adventure meals for texture, quality and taste.
What that, the guys had mixed opinions about the meals and Mr Dog Poop did not think the bacon and eggs was edible while Jeff sucked down the entire feed bad.
These feed bags are very convenient for travel since the are dry, very light and last for decades in any storage condition.
Of course, you still need access to clean water which might be problematic in a survival situation. But for camping, hiking or travel they are a great option at around $10-$15 per meal.
The amount of food in each was surprising and likely enough to feed 2 people.
The beef stew had almost no beef and was relatively tasteless. An extra salt and pepper pack would have been nice to give it more flavor.
The one surprise was the Chicken Alfredo, lots of chicken and full of taste. In fact, everyone was tasting it after the show and it was overwhelmingly rated the best and very edible.
The fried rice on the other had had a chemical taste, just smelled and tasted wrong. Of course the did not prevent Macolino from eating the entire feed bag, so if is edible for people with no taste.
Our conclusion was that some of the meals were good and some bad as far as taste. As for value, they all had ample amounts of food and really are good for what they are made for.
Just a word of caution, if you are taking them camping or on a hike and they are your only source of food, make sure you try one first before you depart.
Not everyone likes the same flavor and these are hit and miss.
We tried to get Gel in on the conversation as he reviewed some different flavors on a episode of Bullshit and Beer but as usual, Mr Dog Poop and technology don't mix and that turned into a fiasco.
In all fairness, Mr Dog Poop does have some of these meals in his bunker for the zombie apocalypse and if that time comes, he will be chowing down on Mountain House Adventure Meals.
Dash Mini Waffle Maker and Griddle Review Dash Mini Waffle Maker and Griddle Review The consensus of opinion was that these were the most useless appliances ever made. They are too small, too slow and make more of a mess than they cook. O course,Jeff goes off script making egg sandwiches because he know that Mr dog Poop has not been able to it so far. He sucks down what he claims is the most beautiful sandwich in the world and he is not going to apply at McDonalds for a job because of his one success. Mr Dog Poop struggles to make 3 waffles in an hour but does manage to make a potato pancake and a blueberry pancake. These was not much for Fat Chris to eat because it took forever to make one waffle. They did get a visit from Glen from Bullshit & Beer fame ...read more
Pocket Sandwich Maker Review In Monday's episode the guys were on fire, well not on fire more like burned all over by the pocket sandwich maker. It is just plug in and go with no on off switch or temperature control. So be ready when you plug it in, it gets hot very fast. Does it make sandwiches? It sure does and many were approved by Fat Chris who appeared on camera long enough to take bites out of the very hot sandwiches and scurry back to his desk to finish eating them. The guys tried traditional grilled cheese with limited success but also got creative with pizza pockets, chili dog pockets, hand and Swiss, roast beef and provolone and a few mixes including trying to cook an egg that ended up mostly on the table. Overall the appliance we OK and that is just OK. The sandwiches mostly ...read more
Sucking Shit Through A Life Straw >Click Here to Watch This Episode on YouTube< Beer, Whisky and Dog Poop through a Life Straw? Will pure water come out? Just like the title says this episode literally has Mr Dog Poop putting dog poop in a blender with water and creating a poop shake that he attempts to drink through a Life Straw. The guys run the life straw, a supposed survival tool through a battery of tests including drinking urine, blood, beer, whisky and even dog poop. It is pretty crazy o say the least, but how are you going to know if it works? Have you tried it? Too many people buy these and are relying on them in case of an emergency, but our test told a different story. They taste like the plastic they are supposed to protect you from, you can taste all the fluids ...read more
$25 Panini Press Review Egg Sandwich? Ribeye Steak? Rubens? Patty Melt? What will it cook? As it turns out this little dynamo is pretty good for the under $25 price tag. We actually made the mistake of trying to make Panini sandwiches rather than just using it as a small kitchen grill. The most success we had was cooking a previously frozen ribeye steak. Then we cooked a cube steak and made a patty melt and even cooked some sausage patties. While the big challenge was to make Rubens, we may have over stacked the sandwich for the size of the Panini press. Regardless, the grill out performed our expectations and it did burn us a few times. We did have some complaints about the design, it was definitely not very user friendly and expect at least a couple burns until you get familiar with the set up. But ...read more
