MREs !!! I hope you get the second generation meals.

The first gen MREs were pretty awful. Sure you can eat 'em, but you gotta be tough. I recall trying to feed an "omelette with ham" to a stray dog. The dog was wise enough not to touch it.

I personally haven't had an MRE since 10-94, and I don't miss 'em.


BTW if you really want a calorie load try getting the arctic version of MRE. They have something on the order of 5000 calories per meal (and we were issued 2 per day) Lots of good snack type stuff in those as well.
