    Taro used to eat dried squid and some other kind of dried fish. It actually was pretty good.

    No I am not German.
    Dogs are excellent judges of character, this fact goes a long way toward explaining why some people don't like being around them.

    Spam. Hate it, hate it, hate it. Nothing but mystery meat IMO!

    But if you like it, you can now buy it in a single serving foil pack.
    Some people take the straight and narrow. Others the road less traveled. I just cut through the woods.

    How about Civit Coffee? A weasel eats coffee beans, they are partially digested, and then are pooped out. The poop is collected, the coffee beans are removed and washed, and then roasted and brewed.

    Souse meat is loved by some, but I can't do it.

    Nastiest thing I had on the trail: I dehydrated some mushrooms (but not dry enough, unknown to me). Put them in the pack and carried them for 4-5 days, looking forward to mushrooms in my spaghetti that night I open the package and the smell of those rotten mushrooms was bad enough to knock a buzzard off of a gut wagon.

    Any form of CLIF Bar. They were in a meal every day at Philmont, after about 6 days, you couldn't give them away, even to a 14 year old kid, after 7 days, I couldn't even eat one. Don't know why, they just turned me off.

    I had canned shrimp in a Rice-a-Roni fried rice once. I had actually been looking forward to it too.

    We have a big Korean food market near my house, and I went there with a Korean friend of mine the other day. There are lots of "interesting" foods there, including several Durian fruits. The chip/snack aisle is very interesting, and includes lots of shrimp and cuttlefish chips. They also seem to have lots and lots of vacuum packed cooked ears of corn. I was wondering if those might be good on the trail. It's a bit heavy, but with two in a pack, that might be a nice treat. I thought the cob might even burn in a fire after it sat on the side a bit to dry out. The ramen (ramyun) selection is much tastier and varied. Oh, and packets and packets of various dried fish to chew on -- fish jerky, I call it. If you can eat the stuff, there's lots of food available to take on the trail at the local Asian market.

    I clear the area when I eat my dried crickets or dried cuttlefish. Later on..the area gets re-cleared.
    I hiked that ridge Pop told me not to that morning.
    Each time out, I see that same ridge- only different.
