My co-worker felt the need to share with me today these two very absurd products that are just not right. A fully cooked whole chicken in a can. Yep. I had no idea this existed and I was okay with that after seeing exactly what it looks like coming out of the can.
You can read (and see) more about it on this
blog. I am definitely all right if I never try this, it looks absolutely disgusting and I do not see the appeal in it whatsoever.
A Candwich? Okay, so these are made for convenience and they come in a few different varieties; Peanut Butter with Strawberry or Grape Jelly and BBQ Chicken? I could maybe, MAYBE get on board with the PB & J, but barbecue chicken? Come on, that's pretty gross.
"Have you been hankering for a food product that can roll around inside your car for months before you eat it? If so, look no further."
Would you try any of these products? What's the craziest food product you've seen?

i didn't know the chicken in the can existed until i seen the show chopped on food network.. and i think lovelyish mentioned the sandwich in a can.. i'd probably just stick with the uncrustables.. i'm a little iffy on the sandwich in a can..
sounds disgusting.
Ewwwwwwwwww!!! I'm so glad I ate a couple of hours ago. One look at that chicken and well, ok we'll leave it at that. I don't even like Peanut Butter and Jelly in the same container. No thank you. Then again, I guess if I was on a deserted island and that's all there way. Maybe, just maybe. NOT.
Would I try some of these products? I believe the appropriate answer to that is "Aww HELL NO!"
I DO however, like how it says "Home Style Goodness" on the canned chicken, because whenever we cooked chicken at home, we always made sure it came with an extra layer of mucus. Because really, home cooked chicken isn't home cooked unless it looks like it might've popped out of one of those eggs in Aliens. Just like Mom used to make.
There are hardly words..
@Lakakalo@xanga - that's probably just a massive layer of fat, lol.
@written_conversations@xanga - Fat or mucus, it still gives off a creepy facehugger vibe. >_<
Ugh, the disgust.
@Lakakalo@xanga - I think that layer of something is congealed chicken broth/juices on the outside of the chicken. Either way...regardless of what it is, it does not look appetizing.
Nope, not going to try these items. Can't really recall any odd canned products except I giggle a little bit every time I see a can of "Spotted Dick."
@Lakakalo@xanga - hahah, I know, right? It looks vile.
@written_conversations@xanga - I'm still trying to figure out how they define "Home Style Goodness". 0_O
@babybug329@xanga - Spotted Dick? Where did you see a spo- er... never mind. I'm better off not knowing. >_<
@Lakakalo@xanga - You know you want to Google it.
@babybug329@xanga - Nope. I learned my lessons researching tentacles for a birthday card. Just say no to Google. >_<
@Lakakalo@xanga - Yes, SOMETIMES, ignorance is bliss. Too bad I looked up balut. That wasn't such a great idea after all.
@babybug329@xanga - Yes, at times, ignorance is bliss. At other times, a couple of months worth of meditation & therapy is needed to un-see a certain "something" in order to attain a level of bliss on par with ignorance. :D
Whoa the 2nd image totally freaked me out! I wonder what the sandwich in a can looks like out of the can? :P
Um, that chicken definitely does not look cooked whatsoever.
@Lakakalo@xanga - hahaha, I know. Oh, and as to your comment about spotted dick - it's NOWHERE near as bad as it sounds, lol. It's just vanilla sponge cake with raisins (or sometimes chocolate chips). It's actually really good, although the name leaves a lot to be desired, aha.
i wouldn't mind the pb&j, but not the bbq chicken.
anything that's healthy to eat shouldn't come so preservable.
Ughh.. Just lost my appetite...
I mean they might as well put everything in a can..! =.='Whole chicken in a can? I didn't think anything could be as revolting as Spam. Thank you for proving me wrong! LOL!
ugh why did you post that picture? What is on it? And who in their right mind would eat it?
First, how big is that can of chicken?
And this is just a wild guess on my part, but I think the chicken was cooked inside the can. I think that's why the chicken is coated in all that gel.
@babybug329@xanga - I know what you mean. I mean, why would you want to eat something that sounds like it's a symptom of an STD?
@Lakakalo@xanga - ahahaha, I got a really good laugh out of your comment!
@babybug329@xanga - I've seen the spotted dick! hahaha and I of course took a picture of it!
That does not look appetizing. :/
