@@RationNerd It's always enjoyable to watch you. It's kinda like when I bought a French commando ration and all it was a regular mre in a plastic bag.

But you don't seem like the kind of guy who pisses and moans about shit. Keep it up brother.

Bourbon St Joe reviewed one of these a few weeks ago. It's very interesting. For being a "First Strike" ration I can see where they're going with it. No heating, easy to shove in your face hole to get max calories. Even though most of it looked like baby food, I bet it was still better then the US First Strike ration. Excellent RN!
