FSR lunch

Post by Garron » Tue May 19, 2009 9:55 am

Hey Guys,

Didnt have long to leave before work on Sunday so I thought I was have a quick lunch, I've been slowly picking through my test FSR (I've kept one and tested the other) and figured I'd finish off the remaining parts. I had the Chicken, Tortillas and fat free mayo = Chicken wrap :D

The chicken was really good, I was expecting a reformed mush, this seem to have the texture of real chicken... Though it needed to be drained a little as there was some liquid at the bottom of the pack. I'd guess as its a Civilian brand the US members might have had it before.

I was somewhat weary of using the Mayo... being over a year old. It looked and tasted fine.

It was really good, quick and filling. I'd gladly make them again. One down one to go :lol:

Even one of my cats enjoyed the left over Chicken :D

The chicken pouch looks like a "Starkist "brand one. They have those new retorts packages of chicken,tuna,albacore and salmon.
Sometimes the tuna tastes like chicken... :shock: :lol: and makes you wonder.... :roll: :roll:

Also other company "Chicken of the sea" has them too but in green.
Peace!

If it´s "fat free" that should mean there is no oil in, a main ingredient of mayo. No oil = no spoil :D

The other main ingredient is eggs, which spoil easy.
It would be interesting to see how they do make it !

Regular mayo is mad from up to 80% oil, so oil is THE main ingredient of a mayo.

If this FSR mayo is fat free, how could it made from oil?! Oil = fat :?:

So the FSR fat free mayo should have no oil, isn´t it?! I doesn´t want to open my FSR bags just to look for the ingrediens :cry:
