According to this,your only hope is Asda, or else break into old peoples houses and ransack their cupboards.

Ta. I'll check asda out, i think there is one on my travels, i'll dip in and see, tesco lie and haven't had any in stock for over 12 months and I've checked loads of branches when i've been out and about.

Emergency stores of tins of Spam and Corned beef are mandatory as nothing beats a grilled spam and red sauce butty / corned beef, onion, brown sauce butty for when you have to have that dodgy miscellaneous food stuffs

Sliced stuff from the counter is much nicer anyway.

i havent eaten spam since i was a kid, i now really fancy a spam butty.

tinned corned beef and spam are like sneaking off with a dirty whore and having a ball.

much better than that posh counter cut stuff.

At least with a whore it's not you that's full of fat when you've finished.

I was an hour down the road from Fray Bentos yesterday actually. They don't impose those horrible "pie" things on the locals here

Actually I was going to say that if the OP was really desperate he could order some online from South America. To quote an old Macc Lads' song: "Fray Bentos and cheap red wine, is all they eat in the Argentine..."

They don't export tinned pies to Argentina either
I always mind when one of my wife's cousins was visiting they seen Fray Bentos pies in Asda and the look on her face was pretty akin to Homer Simpson when he seen the Mr Sparkle advert for the first time (a mixture of shock and confusion)...no idea they existed

if you remember what UK tins of corned beef taste like grab a local tin and do a taste test for us, i'm betting they don't shove half the amount of shite in it and don't have half that white fat wrapping. I dnt the locals don't get what's exported internationally.

this is your myffbusters challenge should you choose to accept it.

Been a while but I'll give it a go. Fresh and tinned (had more of the fresh stuff when was in UK)

Northwind

I just found a tin in the cupboard. And you can't have it

cat_with_no_tail

We've got 4 tins in the cupboard :shock:

The wife makes a mean Corned beef and potato pie.

Tartanyak

I love corned beef and potato pie. It's one of the best things ever. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. <drools>

Also, corned beef toasties. Lovely. Corned beef hash.... Oh yeah.

I have a salad with me for lunch.
I put corned beef in it.

El Capitano

Corned beef hash is the business. I think there's a can lurking in the pantry. If so, that's tonight's dinner sorted.

joshtp

nothing like a good, hot corned beef and potato pasty early in the morning.... MMMMM!

Gazlar

Corned beef with hash is the way forward I think you'll find!

Or corned beef and ketchup buttys are awesome, I prefer sliced corned beef though so I don't have to slice my hand open on that mother feckin tin!
