So they are very fresh in that regard. They still have the texture of fish - in a good way. <br/><br/>It's so convenient to have a can stashed. Now when I have away races I'll throw a tin and a Light My Fire spoon/fork combo (not a spork) that I got when I visited the Bela booth at the summer Outdoor Retailer show. The fact that Bela were having folks sample with a reusable camping quality utensil rather than a disposable form really says something about them. Well, Holly,

I don't know if I am sold on the prospect...though I guess it would be an easy food to keep in your car with some bread. What are you trying next? Caviar and crackers?

The last time I tried to pick Belas up at WF, the cayenne, olive oil, and lemon flavors were all solid out. I had to go with tomato.<br/><br/>Sparky,<br/>What's Bernd got to say on this subject? If he a big fan of men eating meat? Weasel,

This sounds great — a source of protein and salt that had never before crossed my mind… what is the price range you’ve seen on these?
