• If the power goes out - which it does where I live - this will be great for the kids. Thanks for the invention - I wish I'd thought of it!!!!

• I've eaten my share of canned rations and MRE's in bags. I don't think this idea is new or particularly gross. For vending machines, camping, and emergency rations, this idea is the bomb!

• For household use, maybe, but why would I pay $6-9 total ($2-3 per sandwich) to get each of my three kids a sandwich in a can when I can buy bread, peanut butter AND jelly for the same price and give them sandwiches for three days? Why is this more convenient than producing a sandwich and packing it a Tupperware container or bag the old fashioned way???”

 

Once I finished the article, my mind began to wander to the Smucker’s Uncrustables my kids recently consumed. You know, those frozen PB&J sandwiches that can be easily popped into the lunch pail for school, grabbed for on-the—go, or used for everyday lunches at home. Now this is a concept that really makes me scratch my head. The canned version can find its place in this world – especially when packed as a part of an earthquake kit, for example. But, I just can’t wrap my head around buying a pre-made PB&J when it takes so little time and expense to make yourself.

During a recent visit to the Great Lakes Science Museum with the kids, we planned poorly, and found ourselves drawn to the cafeteria to fill their bellies before moving on to the next exhibit.
