In one of my stores as I was checking out all the empty shelves I was walking by the pet area.

There was still plenty of cat and dog stuff.

But at least 4 runs of shelves in the small pet section were completely wiped out. I dont even know what they carry in that section but thought it was interesting. Maybe birds and hamster food.

I cant figure out why people dont want to buy corned beef in a can. It is never out and looks barely touched. I bought some to try.

They even took the vienna sausages...but wont touch the corned beef. Must taste nasty

I have had the canned corned beef.

In a pinch it is edible—but barely so. ;-)

Corned beef’s not bad... Vienna sausages are horrid but they make great catfish bait.

When I was a kid, my brother and I would eat a little of the dry dog food, out of mischievousness & curiosity. And mostly just being friends with our beloved collie. IIRC, it tasted “ok”. Never made us sick.

Now with that background...

My wife makes a Filipino corned beef and cabbage dish, served with sticky rice. It’s really quite good. A bit high in sodium though (so eat mostly rice, some fruit on the side.) She likes to use corned beef from back home best (buys @ “International Store” when they have it), but uses the Wally World “Great Value” corned beef too. A little of the GV goes a long way with the rice and the cabbage in the dish. I like it best when the meal is about it’s about 1/2 rice, 1/3 cabbage, 1/6 corned beef.

It's pretty good. I prefer to brown it, flip it and brown the other side as best as possible for something crumbly. Takes away some of the greasiness. I had it at a home cooking type restaurant and that was really good. Made from a corned beef and potatoes, not from can. I'm wanting to make some but we never have any corned beef left and only get it a few times a year, St Patrick Day being one of course. It can be made at home. I made corned venison once. Looked the same and came put tender but it was a little strong.

I used to make reubens with canned corned beef. They were delicious, but no, it doesn’t taste exactly like regular corned beef, any more than canned corned beef hash tastes like freshly made corned beef hash.
