Default Calgary Homemade Food

I'm running out of homemade food and am considering making more food in the near future. However, in light of the huge number of no-shows in the past, I will be changing how I set this up.

I will be making this batch more blended then the previous ones, so it will be a smaller size. I will also be adding in additional nori to a few batches upon request.

I will make food for specific people but you must PAY BEFORE HAND. I will accept cash, paypal, clams, and frags. $10 per bag, frozen into flat sheets with 1 cup of product per package. Send me PMs with the number of bags, and how you want to pay.

I would prefer to make the food before September 28th, however, I need an order of at least 20 bags to make it work.

It would be about the same as what you got, if not a bit bigger. You got one of my personal bags, which I blend up extra much to suit my feeding needs.

Ah ok! I didn't know that. I still have lots left. My baby Bangers really go for it. It's the food that finally got them switched from live BBS to frozen! Whew!

We are at the 14-16 bag mark.

I am hoping to get to the 20 bag mark by Friday, if so then people can start paying and you can all have some nice fresh new food maybe by the end of the weekend, or early next week.

Some common questions that I'm getting;
1) How long does your food last
- Unopened food stays at least 6 months in the freezer, beyond that I don't know since it never sticks around any longer.
- Opened food lasts anywhere between 1-4ish months, this depends on how well you close your bag to prevent freezer burn.

2) How does the food arrive to me?
- The food is frozen into flat sheets.

3) Can I have XXX in our not in the food?
- Things can be added to the whole batch, or just a few bags, if I do your bags at the end.
- I can make batches without Nori, or without a couple ingredients, however I need to replace them with something.

** In this batch I will be making 2 bags without nori**


Does everyone want garlic in their food or not? I am considering not putting it in because it seems to ripen with time, and I've been reading about how it may cause damage to our fish's livers
