    I want to see a prochef use this for a recipe.

    My best guess use would be to use it for a stock and make a soup or chili. Might work any application poached chicken is needed.

      Probably not going to happen. I watched the review mentioned in this comment and the verdict was that isn’t not particularly flavorful when just baked in the oven, as the can apparently recommends.

      Does sound like a decent option for making soup, however. Especially during a pandemic.

        The channel i was thinking of is Epicurious. They have some videos using canned tuna that look edible, at least. There is an example in the link.

          Oh I see, so the point is making a pro chef use an extremely cheap and common canned food and turn it into a gourmet meal?

          Good concept, sign me up.

            Yeah. I find it interesting. If you need to eat and have some time, why make it boring?

    If someone is going camping, or to a cabin with limited or no electricity, this is a convenient way to store chicken. Preppers also buy this stuff.

    This is why Americans are the only country that doesn’t get to insult British food.

      IDK, my Memphis style ribs and blackened burger with caramelized onions and blue cheese begs to differ.

      But I don’t really know much about British food aside for the jokes about depressing bean dishes and of course the “English breakfast.” Lol

      I literally just ate and I’m making myself hungry again thinking about those ribs…

        That’s because you haven’t had the perfect british dish ever created! Chicken tikka masala, the most british dish you could ever find. Beloved by all. Very British. Definitely not from, influenced, or inspired by any other country or its diaspora. Nope…

        Whats wrong with the English breakfast? You definitely didn’t have one you’d be full until dinner time otherwise.

      American living abroad, food is one of the things I miss the most, and not just classic American foods. But, outside of extremely large metropolises, international options are often lacking in European cities in general.

        That’s true in America too no? Like from my experience even fairly large towns just have the major fast food brands and not much else, unless they’re on the southern border.

          Not at all, this is just relevant because its one of the types of food I miss the most, but in my city in the US of like 500,000, there were like 5 Ethiopian restaurants. I now live in a European capital city, with millions of people. If I wanted Ethiopian food I’d have to go to another country.

            Can I ask what city because there only 10 cities in Europe with a population in the multi millions and pretty sure all would have Ethiopian food even if its quite niche.

            And I’m sure I could pick some big cities in the US that are missing certain cuisines that are common in Europe. Like does Charlotte NC or Jacksonville have any Polish restaurants? Or Morocco restaurants? As in my limited experience you’ll be lucky to get a “”“European”“” or “”“Mediterranean”“” resturaunt at best outside of the most major cities with large inmigrsnt populations like LA and New York.

          I think that’s kind of true. There’s no “traditional” restaurants from other countries, but in every small town in America you can have a choice between “Italian” food(both “fancy” restaurants like olive garden and pizza) “Chinese” food, “Mexican” food and the occasional gyro shop, German place or Indian place.

    Emmymade on YouTube did an “Apocalypse Dinner” featuring these whole canned things, the chicken, brown bread, and cheese being the subjects of the video.

    She’s pretty fun and tries out some odd stuff occasionally, but this particular episode stuck in my mind as I’d never seen one of these prepared and eaten before.
