Armour Vienna sausage recall

[lousyflyer]

I went to my local dollar store and grabbed two cans of vienna sausages and headed for the checkout counter.
The girl could not ring them up because of a recall of like 247,000 cases. Her register flashed a message instructing her to take them off the shelf.

I'm going through withdrawls, man.

[davischevy]

I keep a few cans here and there in my vehicles along with some crackers. It's a habit left over from working construction in remote areas, that comes in handy for backwoods exploration now.

I guess I better check out the lot numbers. I'm sure there are things in the sausages I don't want to know about anyway.

[Getter-Done]

Thanks for the Info.

I stay Stocked up on these.

Keep us Updated.

[Boog]

And I just picked up a couple more cans last week, no problem.

Yep Vienna Sausage's, Spam and Kipper Filets always hit the spot when you are down in out and no where near the dinner table. I also keep a couple of MRE's in the truck under the rear seat just because.

[franken]

Funny, I've never heard of anyone eating them.

Rumor has it they're sending all 247000 cases to Paul..!!

Mine are ok. I like the original. When I'm not in a hurry, I pop the top and sit the can under the hot water tap and let it run for a couple of minutes to warm them a bit then grab the saltines.
They offer several different flavorings such as barbecue, hot n spicey, chicken and even halapeno just for Paul.

[special-K]

Now if we could know the reason.

Same here. They might as well be pigs feet to me . The only canned meat I eat is tuna fish.

Packaging defects, could lead to leaking and spoilage.

Just one source.

I do like Vienna Sausage but this is my go-to food of choice

We had a coworker that would drink the liquid in the can.

I've seen my uncles do that while we were camping at the lake. I'm telling ya, as a teenager in the early 80's, there was nothing better than a camping/fishing weekend with the Stratton Uncles. My Uncle Bick Stratton once dipped a honey bun in sardine juice and ate it.....and it wasn't even a dare. He always said after fighting the Japs in Bougainville and having to eat rats & frogs, he learned how to eat anything and keep it down! What a guy he was! Purple Heart recipient for his bravery in combat in WW2. I loved him.

Don't send them here!! REPEAT.. Do not send them to me. I hate those things. I've chugged them down out of desperation but I can't stand them.

SPAM is the same. I loved it as a kid but I can't eat it now.

There are things that I wouldn't eat as a kid that I love now. My dad used to get tongue sandwiches. I thought the were gross even though I had never tried one. Then one day I was eating a taco and asked what was the meat? It was so good. You guessed it...Tongue. The old man knew his food. Lengua (tongue) tacos are now my favorite. Nothing like some good tongue. (that's what he said).

[mongocanfly]

Haha Paul..
Desperation mode is how I'd eat them also..I've never been a fan of what I call mush meat..
If you likem, dont Google how they're made..!!

[FleetsidePaul]

If I was starving I would starve before I'd eat a Vienna sausage again.

I would rather drown in a river of puke and snot.

Nope. I don't care for them.

And what about that potted meat? What kind of meat is that? What part of the animal did that come from? I don't think I want to know.

Other honorable mentions.

Canned Asparagus. Who thought that was a good idea? It's all slimy and gross.

Canned whole chickens. I don't care how stoned I am with the munchies. I aint touching that. Give me some Twinkies.

Canned beets. They taste like dirt. If I wanted to eat dirt I'd get really drunk and fall down in the yard. Even if you land where the dogs poop it's still better.

Pickled pigs feet. I know people that love them but they are like rubber that tastes like vinegar.

Oysters on the half shell. I don't really dislike them but it's like swallowing a lugi with hot sauce on it.

[joedoh]

i would have guessed paul tried one can of every 247k case and called to complain leading to the recall. either way paul has the funniest set of values for food: tinned pork and beef sausages? NO WAY YUK HERE IS MY 1000 WORDS ON THE SUBJECT. unrefrigerated chili dogs sitting in the car 3 days? YES PLEASE>


never tried vienna sausages. the older brothers and sisters love braunschweiger, i could just never eat it. maybe i should give it another go?

[Boog]

I've eaten Armour brand viennas since I was a kid. Not every day but occasionally. I tried their barbecue ones and didn't care for them. Not much for taste but filling. I used to always take viennas and saltine crackers on every fishing trip.
Things I don't eat are cow tongues, pigs feet, pork brains, snout, etc. Nooooo

[mongocanfly]

I've got a standing rule, that as long as I've got actual red or white meat, I ain't eating the rest of it..
That is unless I get extrodinaly hungry.....and Paul's yard dirt would rank above most things I've seen people eat

[Stocker]

I don't think I have ever eaten a vienna sausage... if I did, I was too young to remember it now. A buddy of mine used to take them on hunting / fishing trips. He called 'em veenie weenies. I ate pickled cow's tongue once at a Basque restaurant in Bakersfield, but in my defense I had been drinking. I think the only canned meat I'll have (besides tuna) is devilled ham. I sometimes get a craving for it in a sandwich with sliced dill pickles & mayo. As a general rule, meat is okay but guts are not -- no liver, no kidneys, no tripe, or anything else that's not muscle meat. I've never eaten brains and do not intend to.
