When I was 18, I dated a woman that was 52, does that count?

Reminds me of a previous thread last year some time; something about what kind of gun to use on a cougar...

 

[Felman]

52 year old single malt scotch

 

[Stomper]

I was young and needed money......

I was expecting that from Stomper...

Ahem, Stomper has monies....

Found an unopened bottle of Bacardi rum in a garage cabinet at Grandma's. It was at least 30 years old. It tasted just fine.

 

[Wombat of Doom]

I ate almonds that were frozen for about 30 years. Still good. Some canned foods that predated expiration dates.

 

[Stomper]

I recently ate a can of veggie beef stew (cold from the can) that was 6yrs past it "best if used by" date. It was just fine.

I have a bunch of Spam (in cans), and found one can that was slightly bulging.... for those who don't know, any degree of bulging on canned goods (new or old stock) are a no-go.

I ate C-Rats as old as I was ....or older..

Did you ever get the ones with the five packs of Chesterfields or Pall Malls?

Four packs are the ones I remember, quite a few different brands.

 

[drstrangelove]

25yo Macallan... smoooooth!

 

[DLS]

37 year old Twinkies. The cream filling was dry and crystalized and the cellophane crumbled as the package was opened.

And on another topic, I actually liked C-rat canned eggs!

 

[EPS]

This one time I was at a bar in Kent.
Well any way .

 

[RVTECH]

Four packs are the ones I remember,

That's right! They were four packs - and dry as dirt!

 

[Stomper]

Just like your lungs would be if you kept smoking that sheite!

 

[MannyGlocks]

I too ate WW2 C-Rations with the 4 packs of smokes.

Yeah, the cigarettes were dried out, but the rations were just fine.

Never ate MRE's.

I wonder if they're as good as WW2 C-Rations?

Yes, I actually liked C-Rations, mostly...

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Some of the many names we had for MRE's were :
Meal Refusing to Evacuate ...
Might Require Emergency...
Meals Refused by Ethiopians...

Many were not not "bad"...I wouldn't call 'em "tasty"...but they filled the hole in yer gullet...and kept ya going.

[The Heretic]

IIRC it was a 20-30 year old Mountain House beef stroganoff pouch.

My grandmother had some liquor left over from her father and she was born in 1920, he died, I'm assuming, in the 70s? So somewhere in that range though don't think liquor counts as far as old things for the sake of old
