For some unfathomable reason, one of the world's
easiest-to-find-and-purchase fast-food staples, the ubiquitous
cheeseburger, has been canned. This shelf-stable packaged marvel comes
from Germany, the same country that brought us the BMW and other feats
of engineering.
The product is intended for hikers, but one can only imagine what kind of conditions would compel someone to eat such a thing. Admittedly, I write this without the benefit, so to speak, of an actual sampling.
It may be one of the most unexpected canned products ever, but time will tell.
It's highly likely that, in the name of creative license, the burger seen in the product picture next to the can did not come from the can shown, or from any can for that matter.
You can read more—and see more, if you dare—about it at gizmodo.com, where the reporter who tested the product calls the Cheeseburger in a Can "both the best and worst thing I've ever seen."
And that may be saying something.
For the adventurous, Cheeseburger in a Can is available for 4 Euros at www.trekking-mahlzeiten.de, a purveyor of food and related items for hiking/trekking and other outdoor activities.
After such a breakthrough, can canned French fries be far behind?
