Reply #21: MREs aren't all that bad (at least some aren't)

[BushOut06]

Some of them are pretty gross, but some of them are actually pretty decent. And this was from my experiences ten years ago, I'm sure there have been some culinary improvements (I think they've added burritos, pizza - not sure how those would be).

If you can get some MRE heaters - you add a little water, they get quite hot - you can use them to heat up your MREs, coffee, or just keeping yourself warm.

The MREs that I found tasty were Corned Beef Hash (my favorite), Spaghetti, and Ham Slice. The ones you couldn't pay me to eat were Omelet w/ ham and Potatoes Au Gratin (we called them Potatos Are Rotten).
