1995 MRE Review - Ham Slice
I’m back again with another MRE review. I am a glutton for punishment, so were are returning to the old brown bag MREs. This one was given to me by a buddy who swears it wasn’t stored in bad conditions. In reality, the majority of the MRE was edible and seemed in good condition. The problem with the...

2018 MRE Menu #16 Review - Chicken Burrito Bowl
2018 MRE Menu #16 Review - Chicken Burrito Bowl https://youtu.be/qxCGWzKCr3w I’m back and decided to review an MRE that is younger than 30 years. I’ve got some 2018 MREs that are from some pretty favorable menus and wanted to give my stomach a breach from the science projects I’ve done the last few ...

1991 “Brown Bag” MRE Menu #5 - Spaghetti with Meat and Sauce
This was an interesting MRE to sample. Again, it came from the same era as some of the others I have review (early 1990’s). These were some of the first improved MREs compared to earlier K and C rations. This particular one was issued to my buddy who fought fires over the summer during that time for...

1992 Ration, Cold Weather - Menu #4B - Chicken A La King
My good buddy on the FAL Files sent me this MRE to sample and review. This Part B includes a main entree of Chicken A La King. Chicken chunks with veggies in noodles. Depending on how much water was added, it might be saucy or even could be prepared as a soup or stew. The sides in the packet include...

2018 Menu 23 - Pizza Slice, Pepperoni
https://youtu.be/GrO7whisDUY Time for another review. I decided to take a break from the old brown bag MREs and go for something a little bit more modern. This one is from 2018 and features one of the newer menus, Pepperoni Pizza Slice. The Bridgeford Company has been working on a number of shelf s...

Cool. I'm sure they were stored better than mine!

Re: 1991 Meatballs,beef and rice,in spicy tomato sauce
The meatballs were OK? I did this same menu a couple of weeks ago and the meatballs were dry and chewy! The sauce was good though. Great review.

1991 MRE - Menu #4 - Omelet with Ham
Took another stab at a 1991 MRE that I had, #4 Omelet with Ham. Unfortunately, a number of the components didn't withstand the tests of time. Here are the dates from the main components in the pouch: Omelet w/ Ham - 1052 Potatoes Au Gratin - 10677 Accessory Packet C - 11275 Oatmeal Cookie Bar - 1066...

Re: 2009 Chicken Pesto Pasta MRE Review
Did you try heating the cheese with the main in the FRH? Sometimes that helps it to mix better and not be so chunky. But if its bad, that's not going to help with the flavor. Thanks for the review!
