MrT5 retired from the military and took a civilian job in the early 90’s-he was there for the first MREs-are they supposed to be better now?

My 1st husband kept some C-rats from his military time for awhile-we took them when we went camping-the cub liked them, but we parents would shoot and grill a rattlesnake for camp meat before we’d eat those things. I feel the same about MREs...

MREs improved greatly.

Just as I would take home C-rations to supplement my diet when I was in the Army, (my wife didn’t like them though), I buy MREs when I run into them at garage sales and they are cheap enough, they are plenty good enough to feed to the males in most households.
