Are you old enough to remember the ads on the back cover of comic books that showed a realistic toy submarine you could play in, but if you bought one, it was only a cardboard box with rivets painted on it?

That's MRE pizza.
Now I want a cardboard submarine...

Re: FPS-GP Help please

Far as I've read, and watched, you're correct about the date range. Going off memory here though, so I could be off

Re: Smitty Reviews - Recent Uploads

awesome! thanks Smitty. Subscribed Much appreciated! Thanks sir! Just got done sending a few arrows down the range. Full honesty, it took a few shots with these broadheads to hit where I needed to. I haven't checked to see if they are straight, and I suspect due to how all over the place they were,...

Re: Smitty Reviews - Recent Uploads

Hello all, I'm back again, and this time with a Modular Operational Ration Enhancement (MORE). What a neat little pack. Still packs a wallop in terms of calories and caffeine. I really enjoyed it, and look forward to taking a peek at the other two Packs I have. The chocolate pudding took a little bi...

Re: The Holy Grail of MREs/Rations?

I’m still actively hunting a Canadian Individual Ration Pack, which was the pre-IMP ration.

Anything WW2, coming from a reenacting background, hold a lot of interest for me.

Re: Smitty Reviews - Recent Uploads

Well I did a very quick video. Just had the camera on me, and figured I'd throw it up. The breakfast was definitely awesome. Really enjoyed the menu. Kind of like a ham chowder almost, and the sides were very complimentary. Using the bun to finish the main was a great idea. Sorry about the echo, and...

Re: 2016 Menu #15 Mexican Style Chicken Stew

True, though I have had some excellent drink mixes that have easily served that purpose. Including several very good raspberry ones, haha. Mind you, I never have used Iodine, just UV pens and filter units on multi-day hikes (where when you find water, you don't care what colour it is).

Haha yeah, that rasberry drink tastes exactly like the Jolly Rancher candy of, until now, nearly indeterminate flavour. I'm not a huge fan of it.

I hope you saved the Reese's Pieces for later, rather than skipping it all together. Like...my favourite candy of all time.
