hey spaghettios you like spaghettios open up anyone's cupboard and chances are you'll find
a stash of cans cans of soup cans of vegetables even cans of spam well here are the 10 once
popular canned foods that no one eats anymore ooh look they have canned bread smurfs chef boyardee
it's smurfy good for you chef boyardee is one of the most popular brands of canned pasta sold
in the united states the pasta is offered in a variety of flavors and comes in different
shapes such as squares triangles and tubes the pasta was first introduced to the united
states in the 1950s and today is sold in stores right across the country there was an increase
in movie tie-ins with popular foods during the 1970s 80s and 90s especially junk food popular
movie characters and franchises could be seen on just about any kind of food packaging you
can think of from cereal boxes to soda cans some tie-ins were more well-liked and tasty than others
another movie-related dish introduced in the 1980s was chef boyardee's smurfs beef ravioli and pasta
fortunately despite the vibrant cartoon characters that adorned each vivid blue container the pasta
within appeared to be very typical instead chef boyardee was only capitalizing on the decade-long
smurfs fad that swept over the united states oh rats outsmurfed again while chef boyardee's canned
ravioli is still available today the smurfs branded can went out of style many years ago
chef boyardee cans have featured a number of different tie-in characters throughout
the years but this is one 1980s food that isn't going to return anytime soon pudding in a can bye
i found the chocolate pudding is a classic dessert that takes only minutes to make and tastes like
childhood for the many people who grew up eating it the secret to its velvety smooth texture is a
blend of ingredients which can vary depending on the brand the result is a sweet and creamy dessert
that is perfect for a quick snack or as a high energy dessert when you're craving something sweet
some of the best and most popular flavors include chocolate vanilla and lemon and can
come in a variety of other flavors if you didn't eat pudding cups as a snack in the 1970s and 80s
you probably don't miss the canned version since you might not have even been aware that it existed
snack packs of canned pudding were swapped out with more modern packaging it wouldn't cut nick
or scratch the lips and fingers of eaters the hunt snack pack was originally released in 1968 after
the company created a milk pudding that could be stored for a long time all of a sudden preparing
thick pudding over a hot stove for an hour was no longer necessary for people in search of a
delicious dessert i love it it is simply awesome instead they could grab a can and lift them at a
lid hunts developed a mascot at the same time as the pudding snack cans a lovable horse named snack
pack the mascot not only advertised the food but also caution kids against playing with or
licking the lid or even holding it in their hands the hazardous cans were eventually switched out
to plastic cups identical to the ones still in use today after seeing the retro snack stranger
things fans begged that the retro packaging be made available again customers may soon be able
to go back in time to the days where your lunchbox snack pack pudding carried some risk canned bacon
what i said was give me all the bacon and eggs you have some people say that bacon is the food of
the gods amen the taste the smell the fat it's all magic but when it comes to cooking bacon the magic
can get a little tricky bacon is one of the most sought after meats in the world it's made from the
hind legs of a hog cured and smoked it's served in strips or in whole hog style in a variety of ways
as a side in a sandwich or as a main dish like other canned meats canned bacon was probably
created to make it simpler to transport store and prepare although it used to be very common
bacon in a can is now difficult to locate and unlikely to be displayed on a grocery shop shelf
while a few companies still produce canned bacon now yoder's is the most widely available the
amish-owned family company is situated in ohio and produces a variety of products including a line
of canned beef for long-term food storage as well as for use when camping or traveling their canned
bacon is completely cooked and drained the bacon is wrapped in paper and placed inside the can
not filled with liquid it'll resemble the bacon in a pre-cooked package when you take it out and
unroll it only this bacon can be kept for up to 10 years sack of sauce and a can of meat dude shut up
that is awesome sauce incredible advancements and canned beef dinners were commonplace in the 70s
one such advancement was the hilariously named sack of sauce in a can of meat what did you say a
brand new combination created exclusively by oscar meyer it prevented the taste of the sauce and meat
from blending and becoming diluted during storage families could keep a few beef and pork cans on
hand so they can make mouth-watering barbecue burgers in only seven minutes families loved the
mild delicious barbecue sauce which was made with tomato sauce sugar vinegar celery worcestershire
sauce salt onion and other unique seasonings while this new method of packaging was innovative at
the time it's definitely fallen out of favor with the general public and can we talk about the name
for a sec we can't decide if the naming of this product was something out of a dystopian science
fiction movie or something the military would give its troops abroad english breakfast in a can
you got it i'm a walking and talking plate of breakfast some say the most significant
meal of the day is breakfast it's the first thing you eat in the morning and
sets the mood for the rest of the day it's the meal that help keeps your energy level
high and your appetite at bay until lunch but what if that breakfast comes from a can
a full english breakfast is a traditional meal of bacon sausage eggs and more typically served with
toast and tea this traditional meal has been a staple in the united kingdom for centuries
and has spread to other countries around the world such as the united states and canada yet while the
full english breakfast is a well-known staple of british cuisine the origin of this meal is often
a topic of debate among food historians some say that the full english breakfast was first served
in london's savoy hotel in 1888 while others say that the full english breakfast was first served
at the grafton hotel in wrexham wales in the 1880s in any case the meal certainly is iconic
if you think mcdonald's all-day breakfast is a horrible idea we have something that will make you
run screaming for the hills a complete english breakfast in a can be prepared for a pre-mixed
mixture of baked beans sausage tiny mushrooms sliced pork bacon oats and something called
egg nuggets to be included in it oh yeah ew gross right guys now that we're thinking about
it mcdonald's breakfast sounds pretty good rattlesnake you know what i like
this sandwich it's snake meat the rattlesnake is one of the most unique and dangerous animals
in the world they're capable of delivering an incredibly painful bite and their strike can
knock a human off their feet it definitely sounds bad they're also able to deliver their young via
live birth which makes them one of only a handful of reptiles in the world capable of doing so
their venom is one of the most potent in the world and the sound they make strikes fear into
many not many people around the world would be so excited to eat snake but if you are one of the few
there is of course a canned variety of this strange food as well what is the worst aspect
of eating rattlesnakes from a can apparently there are quite a few bones now hold that thought
the fact that you're eating a rattlesnake from a can in the first place isn't the worst aspect
the only snakes which belong in cans are the phony springy gag snakes that frighten unwary
individuals searching for some delectable nuts or peanut brittle reindeer what are you laughing at
you may only think of reindeer as they pertain to santa claus but reindeer meat is a healthy
and delicious alternative to traditional meats red meats like reindeer are rich in protein and
iron omega-3 fatty acids which are excellent for your heart and brain are also abundant in
it for those who care about sustainability in the environment reindeer meat is an excellent option
and yes reindeer can be eaten straight from a can which is a thought that would horrify and scar
any child who knows all of santa's reindeer by name no god despite the fact that eating
reindeer is totally fine in many parts of the world including alaska most people would like
to continue eating animals that didn't fly through the sky bringing us presents as kids
over the years reindeer meat has become a popular food item people are slowly finding out just how
delicious it is and they're eagerly trying it for themselves some people have even decided to raise
their own reindeer so they can have reindeer meat whenever they want it can be a little tricky to
find reindeer meat but you can usually find it at specialty markets or you can order it online
if you want some reindeer meat that'll last you throughout the whole year you could always
try and track down a can of reindeer meat while it's hard to find outside of alaska
it may be a worthy purchase if you really like the taste of reindeer tongue what about tongue nope
for many the animal's tongue has been considered an inedible organ can't taste my freaking tongue k
but chefs and scientists have been experimenting with tongue as a food for years the best known
examples of tongue in the food industry are probably tongue empanadas and tongue sandwiches
but there are other ways that chefs are using tongues in their dishes truthfully
tongue from cows oxens lamb sheeps etc is a delicacy that can be found on the menus of
many upscale restaurants but it needs to be well prepared and of good quality it's a hard peculiar
looking organ that's often used in chinese korean and hispanic cooking the texture chewy and soft
is similar to that of beef and poultry and it's often described as a cross between meat and fish
cans and tongues obviously don't mix anyone who's tried to lick the sauce off of one too
many spaghettios containers will know this lesson however if you're looking for tongue
in a can it's rather easy to find if you want to give it a try brown bread bread makes your fat
bread make you fat brown bread is another regional canned dish that was never popular in the greater
united states in the new england region brown bread and cans was a pantry essential that could
be purchased with or without raisins unlike some of the other canned goods on this list
canned brown bread was once almost as popular as the fresh variation it's advertised as a tasty
sweet treat in addition to being a quick and easy method to get a loaf of bread on the table
b and m the company that produces the well-known bread also cans a range of meats fish and maize
b m was founded in 1867 when exactly bread was added to the menu is unknown if you've never
eaten bread from a can you might be more than a little curious after opening the can resist the
urge to grab a spoon instead you have to pry open the can from both the top and bottom the
soft loaf will then slip out of the container and be ready for slicing after a little shaking shake
it baby shake it it tastes wonderful on its own or when covered with cream cheese butter or jam even
though canned brown bread is still offered in new england it's definitely lost part of its appeal
and has never been readily accessible elsewhere campbell's pepper pot soup i hate black pepper
one of the best ways to warm yourself up on a cold winter day is with a bowl of soup soup is a
great way to pack in vegetables and plant-based protein making it a healthy and warming meal
there are countless soup recipes around the world but some have fallen out of favor when it comes to
the canned variety this next canned meal like b m's brown bread probably lost favor since it was
primarily our regional cuisine philadelphians have consumed pepper pot soup regularly for at
least a century it used to be offered for sale in bars and by street sellers by capitalizing
on philadelphia's famous soup campbell's which has long been produced in adjacent new jersey
profited from the traditional recipe in 1899 they started to can their own pepper pot soup
midway through the 20th century the soup started to lose popularity but for several more decades
campbell's produced its version to the dismay of devoted philadelphians the product was eventually
withdrawn in 2010 more than a century after it was initially made available by campbell's
no no however there are several imitation recipes online if you're itching to try it thanks for
watching right to the end you're the best and the best deserves more so check out more great videos
