Keebler makes a very close copy that they call "Grasshopper" I can pick
up a packet at my local Hy-Vee or Schnuks stupormarkep. The problem is
that they don't seem to last very long after I open the packet.  Bv)=

That sounds a lot like C-Ration Stew - which I learned when I was in
the California State Military Reserve. Basically each member of the
squad empties the meat item from his C-ration into a helmet liner and
it is cooked over the provided sterno or an actual campfire. And eaten
from a canteen cup. The troop who thought to bring garlic salt is the
"King" of the mess.  Bv)=

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Hobo Stew
Categories: Meat, Vegetables, Potatoes
     Yield: 1 serving

MMMMM------------------------ANY OR ALL------------------------------
          Ground beef
          Garlic; minced
          Cherry tomatoes
          Onion; chopped
          Bell pepper; chopped
          Potatoes; sliced or diced
          Carrots; sliced
          Jalapenos; sliced

MMMMM-------------------------SEASONING------------------------------

          Salt & pepper *
          Ketchup & mustard

 * if you thought to bring along garlic or onion salt or
 Lawry's/Mrs. Dash use those.

 BUILD CAMPFIRE: Build a campfire and wait for the
 charcoal or wood to ash over.

 MAKE FOIL PACKET: Lay two pieces on top of each other
 and shape it into a bowl.

 ADD INGREDIENTS: Add any ingredients you want, starting
 with ground beef and ending with cheese if you have
 any). Shape the foil into a ball.

 COOK: Place the foil pouches onto the hot coals. Cook
 for 30-60 minutes, rotating around the campfire, if
 needed. (If you added potatoes, it will probably take
 the full hour).

 Enjoy: Remove from the coals and let cool slightly.
 Carefully, peel open the pouch and eat with a fork.
