Boat Food - Basic Edition

Now that we know we can chef up some deluxe items in short time, we also wanted to evaluate what non-perishable, rapid-to-prepare items were still tasty enough to warrant stocking the boat with them. So Dustin picked up some economical canned goods and we had a canned-lunch!

Some of the canned vegetables we tried.

We also tasted two canned meats.
For us the canned meat seemed to be more important, as these items could be a bit suspect if not carefully selected!

Yolande gives the canned chicken two thumbs up!

We came to the decision that the chicken was excellent (considering that it comes from a can!) and would be very versatile given that it does not have a sauce. We did not prefer the beef & gravy. We also decided that the veggies of the economy brand were a bit soft and bland, and decided to go for the name brand, Del Monte, instead.

So next, a trip to the local BJ's http://www.bjs.com/!! After Yolande endured a line-up and delay at customer service to get our card, we got some excellent items!!

Trunk full of goodies!

Some of the water provisions stowed.
