I was talking to my mom yesterday and she said that she and my dad had taken a mincemeat pie to a social event last weekend. She then added that my dad told a few folks that they're probably the only ones in my hometown that had ever eaten muskox mincemeat.

I had to laugh after I hung up the phone. I couldn't believe that they still had any of that canned mincemeat left. You see, I shot a Muskox while living in W Ak in 1989, and sent some of the meat to them with some salmon and halibut. Being a product of their generation, I guess nothing gets thrown out or wasted.

The moral of this story, if there is one, is some preservation methods keep game/birds long periods of time, and others not so much!
