My usual Menards in NE IL was out of them the other day when I went. Stopped in on at a different one and got the last two on the shelf.

I found some in CUB but it was by the pizza toppings, sauce, etc. It was also discounted because they were closing it out.

I bought two bags at my local Walmart yesterday, but I have seen it at Menards and Target as well here in North Iowa.

Just bought 4 packs of tuna at Aldis today. They said they had chicken earlier in the week, but it sold out already. Might be a place to check if anyone is looking.

Zups in Ely has them all - chicken, large and small tuna, spam singles, and more in BWCA acceptable packages. I love that grocery. Brought home about 20 pounds of brats and similar.

Got the last 4 packages at the east side Menards...so I am good if the fishaholics in our group do not come through... We have a gluten free person coming along this year.... this is a new adventure....She may have to get her own stuff and keep it in a gamma seal bucket with a small 1 burner stove if this looks too complicated... usuall stuff like Knoors side dishes are out...we shall see...
11 days until we leave town... Make and freeze sloppy joes for Sawbill Lake CG before the trip and make a batch Hudson Bay bread tonight.

quote KevinL: "I bought two bags at my local Walmart yesterday, but I have seen it at Menards and Target as well here in North Iowa. "


We had enough fish dinners so I brought the bag chicken back with us for other outings. Good stuff to have as backup in case the fishaholics didn't come through...they did

I found this kind late last summer and again a couple weeks ago at Pick 'n Save. Looks like you are in Kewaunee so the closest one to you is probably in Two Rivers.

I called the lumberyard...er Menards... they still carry it so I will go get some there and get the 11% rebate. I am hoping the 2 fishaholics that are coming will come through so I can take it back home and use some other time. Otherwise it will get mixed in one of the Knorrs side dishes for supper...
I refuse to bring in foil pack tuna...seems like a sinful thing to do


thanks for all the responces

I started dehydrating canned chicken which works so well I don't take bag chicken any more. I have a dehydrator, but you could do it in the oven if you don't have one.

Try Woodman's. The one in La Crosse carries it.

You could also get a can of the freeze dried chicken and open it and divide it up into smaller portions/servings and then vac seal them. That is what I do.
