Anyone try this stuff? Beef, salt, and water. Says like 2 years shelf life and "prepared with natural beef" no preservatives? How do they do it? I bought a bag and I am waiting 2 years to see what happens.

sounds like a MRE.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -
But, who wants to eat Beef raised in Brazil?
-
The size of the hand compared to the package made me laugh. That’s a lot of pre-cooked shredded beef.
That stuff usually gets packed in cans with about a six year shelf life.

Actually makes a great taquitos...….and salt is a fantastic perseverative

This would probably taste better than canned with the retort cooking they usually do in that process.George / NJ

Dunno, I keep mine in the washing machine. -
Looks like the perfect snack to sneak into the movie theater. Eat it by the fistful right out of the bag!

I usually never eat Beef on the rare occasion when we go out.

Better expect a visit from Tonyb....
He won't be there to try the cannolis, you may need one of those fancy metal straws to eat the rest of the beef

Tony would love me. Being from New York I learned to cook a lot of respectable Italian food.

lol...maybe so, but from my neck of the woods....no Italian is eating this crap out of a bag or making a cannoli with it. We only eat natural stuff that has been properly pis sed on and crapped on by wild animals.

Slightly off topic..... have you looked at where most packaged seafood comes from? Various frozen fish, shrimp, crab meat all comes from half-way across the planet. I have asked where the fish behind the counter comes from. Was told it comes in frozen and they never know.
Fortunately live close to the ocean to get fresh caught fish, but it's still an hour away.

Yeah it's pretty pathetic. Take frozen Pink Salmon for example. They catch it in Alaska and can't afford to process it with American labor so it is sent to China for processing and then comes back to us. That's still cheaper instead of paying Americans a living wage to do it, or even minimum wage. Can't do much for the quality of the fish.George / NJ

That's what she said.
Okay, I'm stepping away from the keyboard at this point in time.

At times I wish we lived closer to the coast in order to obtain fresh fish/seafood. We live in the Midwest where we can buy Beef directly from the Farm if we choose. Chicken and Pork is also raised in the Midwest.mrbigbluelight wrote: »Mike Reeter wrote: »But, who wants to eat Beef raised in Brazil?

I can't speak for the Beef in Cali. One of the advantages of living in the middle of nowhere in the Midwest, we have access to good, grain fed or grass fed Beef direct from the Farm.
