, and I think that MREs look much better and are more fun overall. What I attempted was merely passing the opinion of two reviewers, who claimed that those entrees taste quite good - one even said that he preferred them over MREs. Is it true? I have no idea. That's why I said 'claimed to be'. Although now that I checked, it seems that the second one got his rations directly from manufacturer, so his motives may be questioned... Let's call it a day and forget about it. As far as longevity goes - you are right, those can only last 2-3 years (that's my educated guess, maybe you can find the numbers). Also, I found a nicer review, by the same guy: . There are quite a few of those reviews made recently, which also hints at 2-3 year date - if they were introduced in 2011, then the 1st batch is sold off to hobbyist like now. It may be of some importance to you, apparently eating them one year after the 'best before' date is perfectly fine, even canned goods are OK - someone on YT already tasted/tested this And full menus are listed on this air-soft forum: http://forum.asg.koszalin.pl/viewtopic. ... 26&p=44629 @rationtin440: flankertanker did a review of "Polish MRE' (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBvxwLcNsaM)- AFAIK it's 'SR' type that I mentioned earlier This leaves us with one ration - 'SRS' - without video review. And as far as desserts go, I heard that military-type sweetened condensed milk, in 150 g tubes, which is different from those sold to civilians (thicker), was extremely popular among survivalists for many years. It was, because production ceased, and those newer rations have none.
