interesting idea....
So did you just find that on the website or can you get the NS mag over there? -
What they don't tell you is that it will only cost $123.50 for breakfast, $210.00 for lunch and $312.00 for dinner. All via the lovely taxpayers.

You'll starve to death. Carry less water, less urine output. Can't take a leak on your franks and beans.

@tekkieman - I don't think the idea is to consume less water, it's to be able to better utilize the water you do carry. If you have 5 liters of water, 2 for drinking and 3 for cooking, if you can substitute ditchwater for the cooking water, you can reduce your load by 60% and not lose anything...- housepig

That, and in the fact of extreme circumstance, you're basically taking in some of the water you just expelled. Take the same amount of water, but lasts longer. You're not peeing it away into some ditch or on a tree. Also you don't have to use your own water to hydrate the food. Neat idea, but would urinating on it add a'salty' taste to it? Maybe they leave it unseasoned for that reason.

The body will not find this toxic over the short term, says Ed Beaudry, an engineer with HTI, but rehydrating food this way in the long term would cause kidney damage.
