After a few weeks in the pantry, ham isn't so good.

after a few weeks in the pantry, treet still isn't good....i know some people like treet (and spam), but uh, i don't!

[angstzeit.livejournal.com]

But it is edible. And that's all some people can afford.

Do they still make this stuff?

[misstia]

yes....look for it next to Spam!

I believe canned meat products are cheaper.

The salt content on this shit is through the roof. It was astounding, and rather terrible to find just how salty food is. My husband went on to dialysis before he died and the food shopping bills skyrocketed because he couldn't eat all this salt and potassium-laden stuff. Sneaking a SlimJim nearly wound him up in the ER. Even the potatoes had to be dialysed (soaked for a day in changes of water) before he could have a single serving in a week.

Treet may be good meat and it's cheap, but it sure as hell isn't good for you.

I'm sorry about your husband.

[nokomarie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, so am I. But no joke about the salt and potassium.

I'm sorry for your loss. But thanks for an interesting comment.

arg..I hated seeing my mom on dialysis right before she went too...she wasn't allowed to eat practically anything.

I'm sorry about your husband.

The salt content in so much of what we eat is ridiculous....

It's a sad day when you have to buy the Spam knock-off.
