talking canned food here
i vote for a fray bentos pie. sure, i'v had nicer pie's....but for sommat that comes in a tin, and lasts for years it aint a bad pie at all.
i'm quite partial to tinned peaches as well. but they are nowhere near as nice as a fresh peach. but the humble bentos can put up a decent fight for itself against a fresh pie......follow my thinking there?
so in a comparison between tinned and fresh. whats the nicest thing that comes in tin?

lychee's.........much better out of the tin.........saves a lot of faffing around peeling em............and they look like eyeballs, so you can frighten the kids with em

Nah, none of that savoury pie stuff - it's got to be something sweet to feed my sugar habit - condensed milk!!

More seriously, peach slices. Apple pie diced apples. The canned pie filling we can buy here makes a better apple pie than a store bought one.
I've eaten Fray Bentos a few times. It makes good emergency food but is not anywhere near a real pie. Sorry guys, looks like you have soggy taste buds to go with your soggy skies.
In the USA you can buy tactical bacon in a can. The can is black of course. No idea if the bacon is any good.
