How long do you think you can go with nothing but preserved consumables?

[Sentry]

This is just a fun and interesting topic I decided to bring to the forums.

My friends and I were talking about this over Skype and the conversation lasted quite a while. How long do you think you can consume nothing but canned food/bottled water? I mean sure it sometimes doesn't taste too good, But it's pretty good for you and doesn't expire for a long time. Me? I think I would be able to do this for a couple of months. Beyond that I would begin to crave other foods that I haven't had for a while.

Preserved Consumables; Cans of food, Boxes of food, Bags of food, Etc.

All I'd eat is Spam (Canned meat) and drink bottled water.

I'd be eating things like salisbury steaks and ramen noodles.

So you'd dehydrate instead of starve?

Probably not for long...

My family had some sort of a vegtable month so we ate no meat.... My mom actually gave up halfway through and my dad never even participated...

I can live off of canned goods and bottled water for a long time. I've grown used to it.

Are we talking an infinite supply? If so, indefinitely.

[Masterlegodude]

I can eat Chef Boyardees, and Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup and drink various brands of water

it depends, was there an apocalypse of some kind that makes other kinds of food unavailable?
