I dunno about the bbq one. It will be cold and the bread will likely be soggy. How much for a sandwich is the big question.

I sent an email to one of the contacts on their website because we've been discussing this topic for a while at my work. Our discussion revolved around whether it was a liquid or solid as the product comes in what looks like a large beverage container. He responded with the following picture:



Apparently it's a solid and you put it together after extricating it from the packaging. Much better, though still disgusting, than I pictured. I sent a follow up email asking about how the product is actually extricated as the picture still shows a beverage container with a small hole for drinking liquids.

You know, depending on how long the shelf life is on that stuff, it might make a great thing to stuff in your BOB (bug out bag) for a quick bit of energy.

I could be wrong, but it looks like the top portion of the can will "Pop Off" to get the food out of the can. While it does look like the top portion of the can it seems like they are following in the same methods used for when you would have the "Hide-a-Key" style containers that looked like normal containers, but would actually open in a fashion very similar to what it looks like this food is doing.

That's what I was thinking but it wasn't very clear with the picture alone.

Is it me, or is the "bread" just a hot dog bun?

I remember when we were broke when I was a kid my mom would make me PB&J sandwiches with hotdog buns, she should have just shoved them into a soda can

I dont see the innovation. Those things (bun, PB, jelly packets, laffy taffy) would all last just as long outside of the can. The can does nothing to extend their shelf life.

Dunno, I thought it would be something more spaceage.
