I just finshed taste-testing and reviewing all four sandwiches for lunch today. I'm still putting together the reviews and pictures but here are the pics of the nutritional info.

The plan was to only have a couple for lunch. But I wasn't too happy with the Bacon Cheddar sandwich and then Mrs. Kman stopped by to help with the tasting. So I really ended up eating maybe half of one sandwich (Honey BBQ Chicken was the best!) and then a couple of bites of the others. I put the remains in a ziplock bag in the refridgerator for snacking later.

Cant wait to hear your thoughts, shelf stable sandwiches would make life a lot more convenient.

You bet! You can get them right here at The Epicenter:

Here's another thread I started about them selling these sandwiches:

Kman -

I missed your post about the Epicenter carrying them. I just sent them an order, I have to try these!

Thanx for keeping us informed!

Yep, my order is on its way too, along with a few other snacks. If only the shipping were cheaper to the East Coast.

Yeah, shipping ain't so great coming from Oregon to the East Coast. But I ordered 24 sandwiches, some flashlights, and a few other little things and shipping was only $13.
