Tasty

Post by BigMark » Mon Oct 03, 2005 3:15 pm

Well, I'm going to split it into two eatings, but I had the Pork/Potatoes and the Pork/Mushroom Pate first. The pork/pot was pretty good, sorta reminded me of the IMP Ham in mustard sauce, but the pork was better quality, and the potatoes were quite excellent, nice and soft. The pate was very much like brunschwager liverwurst, only not quite as tasty.. not bad, not very good. The brown crackers were the sweet ones, and were excellent, but the white crackers were much like extra hard saltines, and not so hot. The Chocolate bar however was #1, it was really excellent. The thing I liked the most was the little deal where you can transfer the tin from the fire to a plate, I figured you would just leave the lid on part way, but that little gizmo worked well.
I took a bunch of pix, now I'll just have to figure out how to get them on here.. hmmm..

If you want to send the pics to me, I can resize, post, and link them.

Pics

Will do, but right now I'm suffering from some severe stomach ailments.. not throwing up, but man, I'm feeling it.. perhaps the RCIR being out of expiry by 4 days was a big deal.. bleh.. so be warned, if its over the year they say, then avoid the hell out of it, $30 well spent.. at least I gave the guy a neutral feedback.. that froggy bastard.

Hey does anybody know how to get a good deal on Canadian IMC's or those rare LMC's? Besides ebay I haven't seen any for sale, and it wasn't long ago that you could get a few of them for a great price even with the exchange rate. I would love to get my hands on a few, for hunting season when I get back to the "world". Any help would be great. :D

You can check with some of our Canadian forum members. Mirage used to be around a lot but I haven't seen him in a while (where are you, Mirage?). You should be able to pull up his email/PM from the memberlist.

Anyway, he used to be able to get IMPs so it might be worth checking with him.

I sent Kman the pics, to mreinfo@mreinfo.com or whatever, so I guess when he gets a chance they'll be up!

Thanks, BigMark. I received them but I'm travelling right now. I'll be home soon so I'll be able to get them posted then!

Just seeing if you're back yet kman, I took those pix at great personal expense, eating that good tasting, yet so bad gastrolly.

Hi BigMark. Sorry about that - here they are - I don't want you to think your stomach's sacrifice was in vain!
