Tesco tinned meals

[rik_uk3]

Again whilst on the look out for basic camp food I gave this a go

Tesco Rogan Josh

400g tin cost £1.49





Food values for all 400g

Calories 650

Sugar 14g

Fat 49.2g

Salt 2.4g

This would be OK as part of a home made ration pack, pack some rice and you’d not go to bed hungry. Good texture, good amount of meat but no real kick or depth of flavour so 7/10 from me would benefit from adding a bit of something hot like a pinch of chilli powder.

Any carcinogenic preservatives? In other words is that stuff good for you? Also with sugar and salt and all. Don't know if the amounts that it says are a lot or not for the number of calories. It does look like it could go down pretty well with some bread

We've all seen the photographs of you cooking up tinned hot dogs (frikadel?) They're just packed with goodness. (They're a guilty secret of mine too)

Do as I say, not as I do! In other words I'm a filthy hypocrite

What you need to kick the favour into action is some Creme Goulash, available in (very) hot, or sweet. Works great. Locally known as strong steven.

Your not going to live on this stuff Niels so a can or two every now and then won't kill you, I'd not eat this or the Iceland meals at home although I'll put a few cans in my stores for when the world ends (and I survive of course)
