I would disagree that meat had a short shelf life. It is almost trivial to dry meat out and make jerky that will last a very long time. Doesn't even require advanced tools.

That being said, still agree with the premise. When you're truly hungry, food is food.

That is a 'controlled decomposition' preservation technique like GP described though.
