I used to eat Vienna sausage ALL THE TIME when I was in the Army. I bought some not too long ago, for old times sake. Talk about NASTY! I can’t believe I used to eat that!

I’ll do you one better, I had to take head cheese sandwiches to school for lunch. I didn’t think they were bad, we ate it at home, but the kids gave me a hard time. I was too young to understand why.

When we were kids Vienna sausages and potted meat were treats!!!

It was better than c-rats.

Long story short...on leave I wound up spending 2 months pay in one month. I got back to base and realized that I was on BAS and only had a few dollars to eat for most of a month. As I walked around the commissary trying to figure out what I was going to do, I found a cart full of vienna sausage (7cents) and Chunky vegetarian vegetable (14cents) from a nearby base closing. I bought the whole cart and ate nothing else for a month.

All these years later I can finally choke down the sausage but the smell of vegetarian vegetable gags me now even worse than it did then.

Ever throw a Vienna Sausage in the microwave? Just like the Fourth of July! Sparks everywhere.

In all my years butchering, I never found the metal parts in the animals. Must have been the residue from the shovels they used to pick up the select pieces off the floors.

In those days anything was better than C rats.
