I was in the Army in the early-mid 80's when they first introduced MRE's. I was in the last class of trainees to actually eat C-rations. (for some sick reason, I actually LIKED them..) I'd like to try some of the new MRE's to see what the difference is.

(The one thing I rememebr about the first batch of MRE's was the Chicken ala King. That crapola coulda been used as a bioweapon.)

we avoided MRE's like Anthrax. We usually bought about $100 worth of junk food, and snuck them in an extra duffle bag on our way out to a FX. Spam roasting on a yukon stove is a beautiful thing.
