Oy vey.  You guys are killing me.  Dredging up long-lost  memories.  I was 
fed vienna sausages as a child with frequency.  I  remember liking them.  Then 
I 
remember thinking of feeding them to my kids,  tasting one and thinking they 
were vile.  I picked up a can of smoked  vienna sausages on a lark for my now 
13-year old daughter.  She had no  recollection of them at all.  She ate the 
entire can in about 2 1/2  minutes.  Maybe she was just very hungry.

And you think  you might have lived a more hard scrabble life than me?!!  Ha! 
Yours  was posh.  Whenever I went fishing we never had a campfire,  we always 
 
ate in the fishing boat, opening a can of Vienna Sausage that we'd pass  
around (they were stuffed in the cans upside down and tight as sardines and  
coated with some kind of jellied goop) we'd have to pull them out of the can  
with our fingers that were coated with worm shit / cricket guts.  But  
believe it or not, I remember it as tasting good.  I've tried them  since, of 
course, but always found them terribly bland.  It must have  been the 
worm-shit and cricket guts that spiced them up.  Or maybe I  was just very 
hungry.
