Grand total spent, maybe $15. We would all give over our MRE's. He could work magic with those things. One deployment, we couldn't find him. Sent my people out to search for him. Found him in a mobile Army field kitchen instructing their cooks. I reminded him his place was with us. But the Army cooks expressed their gratitude and we ate with them for the duration. They got inventive trying to gain his approval. We ate really, really well.

They aren't stationed there, there are scheduled trips to keep morale up. Probably no real cooking facilities except what they build. And they are trying to give the men a "treat".

I served in the US Army in the 1980’s in Northern Germany and trained several times along with the Royal Green Jackets. Top notch guys and a bunch of crazies. We ate quite a few meals together our in the field and swapped food with them. Some of them actually liked some of our MRE’s and we liked some of their rations. While ours are designed for individual carry and consumption, back then theirs was designed to be carried in packs by the teams and consumed by the team together. I don’t know how they are now. But from those meals I ended up loving some of their food and eating pub food. Fun times. And I must say that today’s MRE’s are way better than those of the 1980’s. I’ve heard that some of them old ones are still kicking around and may even still be edible! I wouldn’t try them though.

So we can see here that the "newer" MREs are a damn sight better than the previous generation MREs. The snacks are definitely way better.

MRE actually do expire. Depending on the temp that they are placed against, they might lose all their nutritional value in 10 months to 10 years. Most of the dry packaged items are often more shelf-stable. There is a mark on the MRE package which is a code for when they made it.
