Vitamin Fortified

A few years ago I saw these E meal things in Walmart and I thought they'd be great for food storage or backpacking. I noticed the expiration date was nearing so I thought I'd open one up and see how it tasted.


I tried the Cheese Spread first, I do like Cheese Whiz after all.
It was good but it had a really vitamin-y aftertaste. Have you ever smelled the vitamin drops for babies? It tasted like that, kind of metallic and yucky.
I looked at the package and noticed it supplied 70% of the RDA of Vit C. Since when does cheese have vitamin C?? And then I noticed Vit A, B etc.


Holy Cow, Fortified Cheese Spread.


What are Osmotic Raisins?


Hard to see them but they were super "moist" (yes, my skin crawls at having to use that word) and shiny.
I'll take the sundried variety, thank you very much.

By the way, I've discovered the key to inspiration for my blog--Avoidance. Yes, anytime I have something else I should be doing ie-working on my paper, cleaning, practicing--I suddenly have a head full of ideas . Classic.

  1. That's too bad your osmotic raisins were so MOIST! Old cheese spread in a package sounds kind of gross but at least you got some vitamins out of it. Did you try the chicken noodles with vegetables? I bet that one would be "delicious."

    So what were you avoiding yesterday? 1,2 or 3?

    By the way thanks for your help with my IV.

  2. I was avoiding all three--I did none of them. I went to my cello lesson today and had made absolutely no progress. In fact it would be safe to say I regressed.
