We're talking end of world and civilization as we know it. No game animals or edible plants left. We're talking turning to the loved ones and proclaiming, "This is all that's left."
Of the food you have in your home right now , what would be the last thing you would eat. For me the pulled chicken with buffalo style sauce MRE would signal the end is near.

Big bags of dog food can be had from Tractor Supply. I've eaten a couple of pieces of kibble just to see what it was like.

It's fairly tasteless, actually. But it's not repulsive.

If it ever comes down to it, I'll eat a bowl of "For Health Salmon and Potato".

,....no big deal.

Not 100% sure but boneless skinless chicken breast would be near the last thing I would eat.

Old lady burned me out on it a while back.

A case of canned deviled ham I bought about ten years ago. It's likely fine. After all, people eat much older C-Rations and such. Actually, even further down the line are several boxes of freeze dried survival food I have. I tried it once, and it's not very tasty.

C'mon, now.

Dirk knocked up two girls before he was out of high school. He *needeed* that vehicle to haul around all of his mama's babies.

Besides,...he could dunk like a muhfuggah!

I imagine there is enough raccoons in S.E. Wisconsin to keep me fed for a long time. I would hate to go that low, however, some on Facebook that frequent " The Trap Line" eat them and say they are good. Beaver and muskrat are know to be good eating. It might come to that, cause I cant find a rabbit anymore.

We would probably eat a lot of things we don't like before we would just lie down and die of starvation. I visited the Donner party memorial in California last September. After they ate their horses and oxen they ate the dogs. Then they started boiling hide and bark to make some sort of glue to eat. It was the worst winter in 100 years so the dead people didn't spoil. Seems they ate them too. I bet they would have loved to have some Purina Dog Chow or even Rabbit Chow. When my son was a baby and started walking we had to watch the dog food because he loved it. I hate the sight of peanut butter but I bet I could learn to love it.

Lamb fries are actually very good.

I dared my wife to try an appetizer of them shortly after we got married and she moved here.

I had never tried them. We were at Columbia's restaurant in Lexington. They arrived,...breaded, fried and in gravy.

She looked like she was enjoying them so I had to have some.

,...excellent food. Give them a try at Columbia's steak house when you're in Lexington someday.

You have to prepare it right. Completely drain it, and squeeze out excess water. In the pot with about a quarter stick of butter. Once the butter is melted, stir in thoroughly and salt to taste. Turn off heat . Pour in two tablespoons of heavy cream, and stir in. Serve.

I ate sardines as a kid, but hate them now. Kippered herring is okay in small quantities. But I have several cases of canned (jarred) salmon on hand that I've put up over the past few seasons. Most of it is kippered with the remainder being skinless/boneless with a commercial salt pellet added before packing the jars.

I can have salmon salad sammiches, pound out patties and fry or mac-n-cheese salmon casserole.

Fresh from where? I suspect they have been previously frozen from last year if they're wild-caught. If they are truly fresh, they're likely farmed.

Back to those Brussel Sprouts. Great recipe here.
Chunk up a pound of bacon and fry it up. Remove the bacon and part of the drippings then add in a bag of brussel sprouts and a small amount of chopped onion. Brown the veggies and then add the browned bacon back to it.
Makes an excellent dish. Serve with a side of potato of choice and you have a pretty good meal.
Making myself hungry.

With all that bacon you could substitute 'dog sheit' for brussel sprouts and probably still have a good dish.
