    Advice from a New Englander: slice the canned bread thin, butter both sides and brown it in the cast iron skillet. You will like it better! We always had it with franks and beans, and the homemade kind is about the same - we used to make it in coffee cans steamed on the woodstove

    I loved what we called Brown Bread growing up. I always put butter on it. I still eat it on occasion, but always with butter. The new camping gear looks really nice! I enjoy your camping videos. It makes me want to try it again. What got me away from it was the noisy neighbors. You seem to do well, avoiding lots of other campers. I guess, now that I'm retired, I could go during the week, which might help.

    I love the camping videos too. Bread in a can I love it. It's better if you toast it, put some butter on it. It's great with soups, beans and stews. Or just toasted with butter on it. It's good staple food. I've also put maple syrup on it. But I guess it's an acquired taste. I love it. When it's cold it can be a quick easy addition to a meal. I've never ate it plain. Give it another try.good to take on a camping trip. Take care God Bless. I sleep good when it rains.🙂.✌🙌🕯🖖💕. Respect and positivity always. Neita and family. 🙂👋.

    Thanks for the video. I saw you had beans, should have them together. Sop up the molasses bean sauce with brown bread. Throw in some hot dogs and you have a Saturday night supper. Nice oil lamp too, don't get to see them in use to much, looks like you been around them and know how to use them as you had it isolated on the table. Look forward to the next one.

    Enjoy your camping videos sir! At this point in my life I want a tent big enough for a cot and the associated comforts with that approach. We used the cast iron setups for making great hot sandwiches like you did with the tuna. It just takes a bit of practice to figure out how long to cook it while not burning the bread.

    We were there camping the 9th through the 14th in the A loop. It was ok. Roads sucked going in. Road falls off the side making big pot hole type divots. I hit one and bent my trailer rim and flattening my tire. Doubt we will go back. Thanks for your video!

    Long time seeing you. I agree camping bread, in a can of regular, butter both sides, lightly brown in skillet makes great toast. Don't camp any more but still fix toast like that at times.
    All your camping gear looks great. You need a camping check list.
    Zipper on sleeping bag for glasses,
    The misty fog moving in behind you is interesting, just need a wolf howling in the background.

    Cliff, you can't eat that bread just plain like that. We always have several cans of that bread in our pantry because it keeps, and it's delicious warmed up with butter or my favorite whipped cream cheese. It's also great with apple butter, honey and butter, marmalade or butter and maple syrup.😋

    That canned bread I think made its debut durring WW2 like SPAM had, or both became famous then. Anyway, yeah it has that canned black mollasses taste. I slice it think, toast it and put butter on it, goes great with coffee, especially when camping and or hunting.

  • @heden1460
    @heden1460 2 года назад +1

    All growing up, my dad had his children use mummy bags when we were camping. He said it would keep us warmer than regular sleeping bags. I hated using them because they got so narrow at the bottom that I couldn't move my legs around inside very well. I don't know if that's the way the one you used was though. It looked like it could be a little roomier.
