Dentures with Pilot Bread sounds about like attacking tundra tussocks (woke) with rubber knee high pasture boots... rough!
Like I said, a little salt baked into the Pilot Bread would have gone a long ways but I can see that being counter productive on a long marine excursion where fresh water was at a premium. As to the bush and/or arctic, I'll take some caribou jerky, dried or smoked salmon, and maybe some dried blueberries or salmon berries. I'd even consider some boiled gull eggs and some of the other delicacies from up in that country.
I've just never sought out the stuff down south even though I do believe that it is sold in other parts of the Country.
