Emergency Food Test
 

I have a bag of Cheetos that I keep in my car in case I ever get stranded in a snow bank. I've had them for five years and decided today that it's time to give them a try.

It says on the bag "Guaranteed Fresh until July 11." I don't know if that means July 2011, or July 11th (2006).


I plan to eat three of them. I will then wait 60 seconds before injecting myself with the antidote.

His post is thirteen minutes old.


...



can we panic now?

I could only eat one. They smelled like poison.

Then my arm was paralyzed and I couldn't give myself the antidote.

I tried to dial 0118-999-881-999, but I couldn't remember the last four digits.

Then I got better.

at least you didn't turn into a Newt!

Yah then you's have to run for president! :eyebrow:

You have to rotate your emergency Cheetos.

That's my excuse, anyway.

I couldn't keep a bag of emergency cheetos in my car.

I'll have to mark that on my calendar:
+ Check spare tire
+ Check flashlight batteries
+ Rotate Cheetos

I would rotate the cheetos daily.

When did the food in this thread change from Cheerios to Cheetos?

After eating the five-year old Cheeto this afternoon I may be out of the Cheetos mood for a few days.

Cheerios? Well,those would be easier to rotate (considering that they're round).

"donut seeds"... which dwellar-spawn coined that term?

I can't eat Cheetos in the car.

Leather, you know. Can't get Cheedle on the leather.

They're Cheetos. They're supposed to smell like that. If that didn't smell like poison you might notice they taste like something worse.

Stale Cheetos are frighteningly chewy.

It did something funny to your font.

Dad tried to have an emergency Mars Bar in the car in the snowy weather over the last December/ January.
Unfortunately, although Mum does not generally like Mars Bars, she likes them when they are really cold.
That idea did not last.

I told him to get some Kendal Mint Cake.
Mum objected. Why? Because she can't stand it.
THAT'S THE POINT!
I will have to get some for him and sneak it in. Then again he never took my advice about having a bag of cat litter in the car (great to stop wheels spinning if you get stuck) so I don't think he was really taking it seriously after all. That or he thought I might pilfer the litter when I run out of funds halfway through the month....

The whole number* should have been "0118 999 881 999 119 725 3," so I guess I was missing more than just the last four digits.

* The new emergency telephone number

I just ran to my local UDF for a gallon of milk...and, for some reason, I bought a bag of Cheetos.


It's pretty much your fault.

Did you get the extra crunchy?

Are you making font of me?

you made font of yourself first, we just watched.

And laughed surreptitiously.

are you sure that wasn't meant to be seriftiously?

Clever.

(they were crunchy)

When do we do the Emergency Fuck Test?

Has it been five years already?

Assume the position.

My Cheetos are shaped like Jesus, so I am safe.

Excellent thread - testing the shelf life of car rations.

I've had an "emergency" stash of 9 or 11 Quaker chewy granola bars (or whatthefuckever) in my truck for at least a year now, probably more like two.

Should I.....?







:eek: I'm afraid!!

Go on....

Offer one to a hobo and watch him eat it. If he doesn't keel over, then they're safe. :D

There is a handy jingle to help you remember that number. Don't forget the number isn't the only thing to change. There are nicer ambulances, faster response times and better looking drivers.

Am I wrong or am I the first post of 3 pages that actually seems to get this joke? Dwellers, you are disappoint.

Thanks MTP. I thought maybe nobody knew that the number had changed.

I can't get the number out of my head - except for the last seven digits.

Its easy!
