emmymadeinjapan just curious how come you didn't fry the bacon to crisp up or did you want it have the original taste from the can? I always love your videos, keep it up Em!! Warm smiles and hugs 🙋🏻 catch you in the next video
girl. u dont hafta rough it that bad! fire comes from knowledge its nota resource so u couldve made ur meal much better by cooking it all. first butter pan then bacon to crisp n fat grease for ham a next item the eggs then melt the cheese then toast bread on open fire. for greens a book on hand for edible fauna in ur area. thats some gourmet apocalypse shit right thurrr
RU-vid interrupted me during this video to tell me they wouldn’t interrupt me anymore if I paid them to not interrupt me. Some people call that racketeering. 😂
I grew up eating that butter, I miss it so much 😩 They called it “mantequilla pluma roja” meaning “red feather butter” cause of the logo. I had no idea it came from New Zealand lol. How did it end up in a small city in Peru? Haha
That bacon was great! Dried egg is yum.....Not sure about the canned ham though. I camp with those sorts of foods, I usually have dried rice products (chicken flavour etc..)as well, all go together well.
Sodium nitrate, a preservative that's used in some processed meats, such as bacon, jerky and luncheon meats, could increase your heart disease risk. It's thought that sodium nitrate may damage your blood vessels, making your arteries more likely to harden and narrow, leading to heart disease.
TBH I’m not sure why you didn’t toast the bread in the frying pan, since this is an “apocalypse at home” moreso than “meal in the field” scenario! The eggs really surprised me in how well they cooked though! Wow!
No....at least what I got in Canada was canned uncooked, & cooked up just like regular bacon. The bacon that is sold cooked is very thin, & sold in stores today for use in microwaves. Years back it was salted regular bacon, thick, & ready for frying & tasted same as reg. bacon. But it was expensive.
The canned bacon was a very pleasant surprise. When you first started to take the lid off and there was just a glimpse of white, I almost gagged, thinking I was about to see a can of congealed fat. :P
Many decades back I was very happy to find canned bacon when I was going camping! It was great! Same as reg. bacon to me. And in India (and elsewhere) clarified butter (ghee) is usually sold in cans. (But clarified it is minus butter solids & is basically oil, so not really spreadable on bread!)

Heeey I also grew up with canned butter from Venezuela, called "lactuario de maracay", it was very good too :) the video actually made me crave that butter again 😊
I remember government cheese. They gave out a large chuck that was too big for one person to eat. But then again, it wasn't done to feed the poor but to aid the Wisconsin dairy industry.
I never saw it canned, but I did see it in paper wrappers along with bagged beans, bagged flour and corn meal, gov cheese, boxed powdered milk, and cans of vegetables and peanut butter. This was part of the USDA Commodities Program, and was separate from the *paper* Food Stamps Program at the time.
I look forward to the "apocalypse lunch" and "apocalypse dinner" videos that should follow shortly!! More bomb shelter food, please!! After watching this, I feel inspired to re-watch the Supersizers Go! episode, where they eat WWII meals for a week. LOVE that series!
My bf and I couldn't visit family for Christmas and we forgot how early stores close on holidays, so we went shopping for our holiday dinner at a convenience store. He made a face when I suggested we try that exact brand of canned ham, but I told him to trust me. We also got green beans and mac'n'cheese. I thinly sliced and fried the ham in a ton of spices (def don't add salt) so it was more crispy and not so mushy, made the green beans extra spicy and savory, and cooked the mac just according to directions. It was a very modest meal, but it hit all the holiday nostalgia checkmarks and we liked it way more than we expected. I believe we shared part of a pint of icecream for dessert. Overall, it was a great night, despite everything going on and how untraditional it was
Taking a moment to appreciate how you are able to describe the smells and taste of any food in each video with perfect detail so you can help us easily imagine it ourselves while watching. PLUS your voice is so soothing and soft 🙌🏼☺️🙏🏼- I Love your vids Emmy! 🌸
That only applies to solid compounds that are soluble in some liquid and can undergo a recrystallization reaction. Highly doubt this is possible with eggs. It's probably just a linguistic trend much in the same way "juice crystals" are.
@@nicolewale888 Ova is the plural form of ovum, which means egg. So "Ova Easy" means eggs easy, and it's a pun because "over easy" is a popular way to cook eggs.😁
I don't ever refrigerate my butter, it sits in a dish on the counter top. So I feel like it would be okay canned. Also I loved how she was like wow it melts like butter.. And spreads like butter. Emmy 😂😂 it is butter.
spiffy216 What do you think people did with their butter before refrigerators? They left it out, and people have been doing that without issue for hundreds of years
Samuli Karjalainen yeah that doesnt make sense either and peanut butter stays for a pretty long time as well. Still sounds like somthing i would wanna see.
To me, the music made it feel like a murder just happened and she found canned bacon at the crime scene so now she has to open it while giving a commentary. 😵😂😂😂
OK...so here's what ya Do.... You Crisp Up the Canned Bacon in the Frying Pan... Then, you add some of the canned Butter, cut the Bread In HALF and TOAST It In The Frying Pan... Then you add More, canned butter, Some Canned Cheese & Canned Ham To The Frying Pan & THEN Add the Reconstituted Eggs... And THEN ....BOOM... BACON, TOAST & A HAM & CHEESE OMELETTE!!! (Yeah, If & When IT Hits The "FAN"..I'm Gonna Be A Popular Gal..LOLOL)
I think you were supposed to refry the bacon maybe?? 'Cause we usually reheat meat products in cans. (Makes them taste wayyy better and takes away the tin-ny flavor)
All can item are cooked already. So yes you can eat it out of the can. I usually do it for sandwiches or when the power goes out. Corn in the can not cooked especially sweet corn is so much better imo.
I don't think $20 is bad for that at all honestly. those little packs of precooked bacon, you barely get maybe 8 pieces for $5. even raw bacon runs between $5-$8 for a 1lb package where I live, unless there's a sale. that looks like maybe 3 pounds before it was cooked. so in my eyes, that's a decent buy.
I've never had canned bacon but powdered eggs are pretty good. I worked for a company that made some of the eggs in your rations and brought back some. I also have chickens and a friend made me some powdered eggs from their eggs and those were great.
I've never used canned bacon but it looks exactly like what they have in fast food places, except it comes in a plastic vac-seal bag, instead of folded and rolled into a can!
IamMunkk she wasn’t really referring to it as a substitute. She was comparing regular butter in a container and butter in a can. The butter could have a canny taste. Or it could’ve had a strange smell. Or it could’ve have a strange color.
I worked in the factory that makes the Bega Cheese in a can 20 years ago (it was owned by Kraft at that time). It was mostly made for Middle East markets and was also at the time being made for military ration packs. It was basically the same cheese as blue box shelf stable cheese but would last significantly longer. Also Bega is pronounced "Bee-Ga".
Well if it were actually the apocalypse that might not be possible so to be as authentic as possible it's better to serve straight out of the can. Most of this stuff is only good if you're starving and there's nothing else.
Proud smelly Wal-Mart person But she cooked egg crystals, so if she was able to cook the eggs, she could have toasted the bread and cooked the bacon...
Recovering Soul I've seen a lot of them on Amazon if you haven't looked yet. Instead of the canned butter you can purchase or make your own ghee. PS. Nice joke, I guess you CAN find some reviews on Amazon.
Canned bacon was so fascinating to me I learned how to do it. You just have to put the raw bacon on parchment paper, roll it up and can it in a pressure canner. We crisp the bacon up in a skillet and use any left over fat to fry something else in. Great stuff to have around. I haven't done butter or cheese but I have done canned milk.
She also put a Washington state cheese that isn’t cheap NEXT TO A CANNED WHOLE CHICKEN 🤢🙄and it’s made by a college creamery and it’s limited. Traditional. I’m offended👎
Butter didn't used to be refrigerated at all, just covered in a cloth or a butter dish and left out of direct heat. So I'm not surprised it canned really well. :)
Oh, Emmy, I’m a long time follower and I keep rewatching old videos. I’m currently in the hospital with a broken leg and your videos are just so comforting. Thank you!!
I’m Australian and have never seen bega make cheese in a can! Lol I’m not surprised the butter tasted amazing, NZ make amazing dairy products. Now, I’ve seen Kraft make a block cheese wrapped in foil and put in a blue box. It’s kept on the shelf before opening. That’s just odd to me. Plus it tastes gross!
Jess Richardson i grew up on that kraft ultra processed cheese lol. Its for macaroni and cheese for ppl who cant afford to use nothing but really good cheese. In mac and cheese mixed with some good cheese its really good though. I live close to a dairy farm and its great. Whats up with NZ having awesome dairy? Thats really cool whats the secret? For the US Wisconsin is the cheese capital of the country. Chedder heads.
Hi Ya! An Aussie here. Bega... is pronounced Bee-ga (ga as in gas)! It’s 4:30pm here in Australia and as usual I’m watching your videos after work haha! Love your videos!
Love this! My younger brother and I went camping a lot as kids and we always went to the local military surplus store and bought tons of MRE's and even though they were hit and miss, the fun was making them and discovering what was inside. I shared this with him so we can find these things to try!
Alex Q ... I initially bought it for my emergency kit. Ran out of regular butter and opened a can. My family only wants the canned butter now...it's delicious
Emmy! You NEED to make FUNERAL PIE aka Raisin Pie. It's an Amish recipe. My recipe is from my favorite cookbook by Marcia Adams (copyright 1989): Cooking From Quilt Country: Hearty Recipes From Amish & Mennonite Kitchens. I'd love to see this actually made by somebody since I know nobody in my family would eat it. (: Copyright seems to say I can't share it with you, but it should still be for sale, used, on Amazon, etc.
My family makes sour cream raisin pie and it's also an old Amish recipe. Are we talking about the same stuff? Most people are offput by the name but once they try it they all love it.
WOAH, i live really close to bega, i've eaten bega on every cheese toastie i had growing up, and i NEVER knew it came in a can. that's so cool!! my dad's been the the bega cheese factory a couple times, maybe i'll get it for him!
Yeah, it’s in every grocery store around here in New England. If you’re curious about my thoughts you can see the tasting here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0h4IIuCU8OI.html.
@@emmymade Been a while, but think I used to make brown bread in coffee cans, per recipe, and it was cooked with steam as well, think the cans sat in tins of water in slow oven. So, since cooked in cans, can see it sold in cans for authenticity.
The canned cheese is actually popular in Arabia. They cut it into cubes and add it into their cheese platter along with cucumber, string cheese made into braids, olives, bread, and fruits and nuts. It is lovely!
Here in Brazil, canned butter is almost a staple food, kinda. The principal brand has a funky flavor that most people like. But it's more expensive than no-canned butter. heheheheh
Cheese is expensive here, butter is isn't too bad. But it's ridiculous that we produce so much great dairy and just export, while charging bloated prices nationally.
Christina Fincham Sorry I forgot I'm in the States. I feel for you guys. We have things here too that are like that. They want us to buy American made and half the time its beyond my pocketbook.😯
Marinate that canned ham cut in slices in orange juice concentrate (about 150-200ml) for a few hours, then bake in a pyrex dish in the oven (with the orange juice) until the ham's for a nice colour. Sprinkle over some toasted flaked almonds, ground pepper, (chili flakes or oil), fresh parsley. Was a staple easy meal (with potatoes or rice and frozen veg) in the 70s.
My parents spoke of powdered eggs during wartime rationing in the UK, and my mother used an old dried egg ration tin to store buttons in. I always wondered what powdered egg tastes like. Also, we had canned cheese in our field 'compo' rations labelled 'Cheese Processed' in that dry military nomenclature. We soldiers quickly dubbed it 'Cheese Possessed' of course 😋👍
