I enjoy experimenting with a low budget and simplicity. Here are some pictures from nearly ten years ago of this. I got the idea in my head to see if I could use a 99¢ aluminum cook pan from the Dollar Tree store as a makeshift skillet for use in the wilderness. They weigh absolutely nothing, can double as a plate, and as long as you’ve got a pair of needle-nose pliers or similar tool with you, you’ve got a handle.
Honestly, it didn’t turn out so bad. After performing this experiment, I was talking to somebody about it one day, and they told me the Waffle House (or some similar diner chain) used to cook all of their eggs on little disposable aluminum pans just like this.
I think I found my grandpa reincarnated online - which is strange, since this guy seems to be only thirty years or so younger than my grandpa would be today.
Anyway, the guy talks like us, acts like us. “I don’t think it’ll kill nobody” made me laugh out loud, because that’s our attitude as we continue scarfing down some thing we don’t like but that is technically edible and nutritious.
