I just got a shipment of Rod's Food delivered today. The Fedex guy woke me up, actually... and since I know he does such a nice job packing the food with dry ice, I put the box on the counter and went back to bed. An hour and a half later, I started brewing some coffee to start my day and fired up the Nikon.

Rod's special packaging is almost magical. When you open up the box, all you have is frozen food, with no trace of the dry ice.

I'm not sure who this Mark guy is, because this is surely meant for Spock.

Check out the thickness of the cooler. The lid was taped to the box to seal in the temperature during transit.

One ice pack brick is in the center of each bundle of food. And a coozy, which works for canned sodas and Shiner Bock.

Included in this bundle was Rod's Original Blend, Seaweed Blend, Pacific Plankton and Fish Eggs.

Here's the Nori that he offers. Since I have four tangs, I use a sheet of it, folded over and over akin to a fat cigarette, then I fold that in half and secure it in the magnetic feeding clip. It never comes out that way. Ever.

The fish knew what I was doing and were ready to dine.

The Yellow tangs are Frick and Frack. They used to be more shy about getting their bites, but now they just jump in until they are chased off.

Crown Royal is always ready to devour some.

This fish really enjoy their meals - I wish I could just do this all day long. They'll get some of Rod's frozen fare tonight.
