The Salmon filet gets a 10/10. If you like salmon, try one of these if you can get your hands on it. The salmon was firm and tasted as it should, and was relatively thick and filling. The accompanying instant butter and garlic rice, not so much. I'm not really a big fan of the included powered drink...

I had that experience with the IMP I (tried) eating today. Yuck!

Chicken Casserole with Rice: 1/10

I could barely eat a mouthful. Smelled rancid and tasted about the same.

Aaah yes, the IMP bread! You can use it as a doorstop and it'll still taste good.

I haven't eaten any MREs, only IMPs so far. Peanut butter and cheese spread sounds great.

Thanks for the welcome! I'm amazed there's a board dedicated to MREs and other rations.

Is it possible to find more exotic rations, maybe humanitarian aid rations from other countries? I recall reading something about this a long time ago. I'd love to kno what they taste like, or where to get them (but not at the cost of depriving anyone in need of food!) Surplus if they have any.

I'm from Canada, and the IMP I had came with a packet of honey. t made me wonder why. No, Canadians don't eat honey like candy. It seems strange to have this stray packet of honey there.

I'm new to MREs and just bought 3 Canadian IMPs. They're Chicken Casserole with rice, Shepherd's Pie, and Salmon Filet, dated '04. I've had one IMP in the past. I don't have a camera or I'd take pictures of the contents.
If anyone has tried these ones, let me know what you thought of them!
