And clearly, it’s exactly what it sounds like.
Meals encapsulated in things that look like toothpaste tubes. They come in all shapes and sizes, too. From entrees to desserts and even soups and meats, the assortment of tube food is varied and vast.
Pretty cool, eh?
Now, you might be asking yourself why tubes? Well, my first response to this would be why not? They’re convenient, they’re compact, and they just look cool. Meals in tube form, people. Come on!
I think I saw an old science fiction movie like this. They called it “the way of the future”. Might have been an MST3K.
Okay, okay, so coolness factor aside, there is an actual reason for these things to exist. And it all leads to U-2.
