Category: Long-Term Food Storage

Here we are on the final week of this experiment and, to be honest, I’m glad it’s coming to an end. Here’s the egg (it didn’t float or smell weird): And here it is cooking (the yolk/membrane broke down without me doing anything): As with last week, I choose to eat it as an egg…

I don’t know about you but I would be hard-pressed to think of any meal that didn’t make use of some form of seasoning to enhance the often bland flavor of a base meal. Think about everything you eat and I’m willing to bet the vast majority of it has been seasoned, from soups and stews to…

Can you guess what this is?… I’ll give you a hint, it’s edible and normally thrown out. Give up or already know? Ok, it’s simply leftover juices from an assortment of canned foods–such as beans and corn–when I made a meal a few weeks back. Though I’m not sure why, instead of draining the juice right…

Here we are, only two eggs left. I think I’ll be glad when this experiment is over. 🙂 Anyway, here’s this week’s egg (didn’t float or smell funny): And this is the egg cooking up (the yolk stayed fairly well in-tact): As with other recent eggs, it did seem to break down relative easily (I…

Results were eerily similar to last week… Here’s the mineral oil egg (it didn’t float or smell funny): And here it is cooking: Even though the yolk looked fairly well together I noticed it breaks down really easily (like last week): Again, I ate a few bites (it was late and I’m beginning to wonder…

  Many people, me included, recommend vitamin supplements in your long term preps. Then, as I often do, I got to wondering how important they really were and if they’re possibly not needed at all. So, I figured the easiest way to decide this is to compare the numbers. Therefore, I looked for an easy to…

We’re down to only six more eggs to go. Here’s the most recent week’s egg… As usual, the egg didn’t float and didn’t smell funny either: And here it is cooking (with the yolk still in tact): I’m not sure if you can tell from the following picture but I should note that this particular…
