I know there are edible lingerie! But they would probably be wasted when life is in danger <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

That website is a riot! <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I particularly liked the drinkable stove fuel. "It's 180 proof grain alcohol, distilled from organic corn. Burns clean and goes down dirty. Grin and bear it, and leave the wine to the cheese eating surrender monkeys."

I've seen this website before. I think it must be a joke. The whole concept is ridiculas. <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Have you tried ordering any of it? They do have an online order page but when you click "Submit" (or "SU"), you get an error message which makes it pretty clear it's a silly joke:
--------------------------------------------------------
Sorry. Due to unusually heavy server activity we are temporarily unable to process your order.

Options. You can either:


Save your order form and try again later;

Print your order form, tape it the back of a mental patient and hope that he/she wanders near our offices; or

Go away angry and frustrated.

These guys are crazy. I don't know if any of it is actually real.

I like this FAQ in particular

Question: Aren't animals attracted to equipment made of out food?

Answer: No. Animals aren't stupid. Animals don't consider Edible Gear food.
You on the other hand, are clearly smart enough to understand that weight saving takes precedence over everything. ???? As you're choking down your sleeping pad just think to yourself how easy it'll be to heft that pack tomorrow morning with two ounces less weight.
