Re: The USDA is after me for ordering French Rations

Heh, yeah I totally thought you got me good with a prank. Sorry, guess it’s the date of the post. ugh. This absolutely feels...wrong. I mean I know they are essentially taking things quite serious for legit reasons, and possibly legal ones, but it bugs me that they monitor individual sales of goods ...

Re: Smitty Reviews - Recent Uploads

My first US MRE. Aside from some very boring Civilian models (MRE Star, meh). Was fun to shoot, was fun to shoot a review, and was fun to try this out. This came in a 2017 case (including the 2017 Burrito Bowl menu), but did not have the pound cake. Several of the components were from 2016, and the ...

Had the pleasure of checking out a 2004 Lung in a Bag. Was surprisingly...not a disaster.

DonJuan_21 is a legend and great to deal with. Hit him up and buy with confidence. That and his LuRPs are excellent!

Re: Newest type of EPA

Ugh, I don't like unsubstantiated claims like "Never before seen on Youtube".

Oh well, good to start seeing these pop up and satisfy our curiosity. I'm not in a hurry to get one though, just based on how underwhelming they seem to be. Excited to get an actual EPA though, as those look stellar.

Re: College-grade MREs

Going off my experience in university, All you’d really need to do is pack some pepperoni, beef jerky, and coffee into the void space between the bottle necks.

Re: 2018 IMP Lunch cases starting to trickle out

The IMP with beef jerky would be the holy grail for me. :mrgreen: Aka: Rocks, Vacuum Packed. or "Tooth Destroying Jerky" Doesn't taste bad, though, just don't want to try to eat it in one go. A tanker I know likes it on turret watch because it takes so long to eat. He says it mostly gets thrown awa...
