Canned bacon with a 10 year shelf life. I tried some and it was actually not bad at all.

Did I read that right? $15.49 per can. Ouch!
10 years is pretty long though for safe storage. I suppose that justifys the cost.

Yeah it's pricey. Really more of a treat for SHTF than anything. Not something to stock up on in bulk.

Our mess hall in Vietnam had no refrigeration.
Our bacon came in square based cans that stood a foot or so tall. It was wrapped in paper just like that picture, and was greasy beyond belief.

You had bacon in Vietnam? So you are saying all those stories about how much Vietnam sucked are complete B.S.? :biglaugh:

Funny thing, . . .
The longer I was there, . . . the better the bacon got to be.
That dagnabbed cook though, . . . needed a trip to the woodshed, . . .
His idea of "eggs over easy", . . . was to grab yer tray, . . . go over to the corner of the pan, . . . get a BIG spoonful of them green, de-high-dure-rated, scrambled eggs, . . . lay it gently down on yer tray, . . . gently turn it sideways, . . . giggle like an idiot, . . . and ask "Is that over easy enough for you?"
Dan started in the mess tent window for him, . . . took three guys to pull him back out.
I still can't eat them things, . . . the real ones are sorta OK, . . . but not them there powdered thangs.............
And I really ain't too sure I'd be payin that kind of price for something I can grow right out there in the back yard. Even if the SHTF, . . . piggy dudes is easy to grow, . . . durn near as easy as growin a beard.
From the looks of it, . . . that's bordering on $20.00 a pound, . . . Aldi's has it for $2.49 on sale, . . . and it ain't bad bacon, . . . (course there really ain't no such thing as bad bacon, . . . just that some is a whole lot better than others).
May God bless,
Dwight

For a prep, not a good idea unless you have all your larders full.
As a barter item, its probably worth an ounce of gold. sell it don't use it.

Nothing beats a big ol' breakfast burrito with bacon.
