We’re in Vancouver again. Last night Laurie turned on Food Network Canada and found _Food Jammers_, which, if not the greatest show ever, is definitely the most Canadian show ever.
It’s about three geeky guys who like to hack stuff. On this episode, they’re going camping and want to bring an entire turkey dinner. So they do what you or I would do. They stuff and roast a turkey and blanch some vegetables. Then they build a food dehydrator, freeze the turkey, and saw it into quarter-inch slices. They dehydrate the bird and vegetables, reducing the weight of the entire feast to under four pounds. “This’ll be great on our camping trip,” says one guy. “Oh, I forgot we were going camping,” deadpans another. These are the most stereotypical Canadian guys you can possibly imagine.
Don’t live in Canada? I feel sorry for you. But here, look: full episodes available online, including the turkey episode. Small video with commercials, but still. I also found a couple eps on Bittorrent. You will thank me for this.
**UPDATE:** Apparently you can’t watch the videos outside of Canada. So actually Canada sucks. I will try to figure something out.
**UPDATE II:** Here, this is totally illegal. I haven’t watched this episode yet, but I bet it’s great. [Food Jammers: Office Smoker](https://www.rootsandgrubs.com/video/FoodJammers-OfficeSmoker.avi) (175MB AVI).
??? How do you watch it? It says, “sorry, this video is not available in your country” – I can’t get it to play. It looks funny and I need a laugh.
Do you ever stay home?
Oh crap! That is the most evil thing I’ve ever heard. I will see what I can do.
It’s been a busy summer. After this we’re staying home for the next six years.
Even though I knew you were going to Vancouver, now that you’re there, well, I can’t believe you went without us. Boo.
Hooray, I didn’t realize that the show was viewable online! Thanks!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS IS THE MOST CANADIAN SHOW EVER?!
Someone from Delaware sitting next to me on the bus found out I was from Vancouver, and she asked me if we have cop cars up here, or do we still use those Mounties on horses. WTF?!
Lorna, I think Canada is the greatest place on earth.
