1980 MCI Pork Slices With Juices (US Meal Combat Individual)
Before the MRE became the standard US military ration, the MCI reigned supreme. Sometimes referred to as C-Rations, the Meal Combat Individual was actually a replacement for the original 'Field Ration, Type C' from World War 2 and Korea. The MCI consisted mostly of canned items. Introduced in 1956, ...

2015 Menu 14 Ratatouille - The name is a lie
MRE, Menu 14, Ratatouille was never well-liked by US Troops. Maybe that's why this field ration had such a short military service. The Meal Ready to Eat version of Ratatouille is bizarre to say the least. For some reason, they decided to make pasta out of this 'legendary' vegetarian dish. The additi...

British Cold Climate ORP (2019) Menu 5
The Operational Ration Pack is the British Military's version of an MRE. This specific 24-hour meal ready to eat is more like an ORP on steroids, designed for extreme cold climates. Arctic combat poses several challenges in feeding soldiers. Firstly, the food needs to avoid freezing, and this is ach...

2003 Menu 17 Beef Teriyaki
I can't believe this MRE was around for such a short time! Meal Ready to Eat Menu 17, Beef Teriyaki, is about as close as you can get to Japanese food with a US Military Field Ration. Surprisingly, the Teriyaki main was very tasty, featuring a rich umami flavor with a good balance of sour and sweet....

2013 Menu 5 Chicken with Tomatoes & Feta Cheese
I've never really heard anything good about this MRE menu. Chicken with Tomatoes and Feta Cheese had a short service life as a Meal Ready to Eat. Maybe it was too expensive to produce or maybe everyone just hated it. I'm just glad I got the chance to try out this odd, Mediterranean inspired, US Mili...

Mongolian Armed Forces UUZ 24-Hour Military Ration
The Mongolian Armed Forces UUZ Field Raton has had very few reviews. Coming in at 4.4 lbs, this 24-Hour Meal Ready to Eat is pretty gigantic. The meal kit consists of four modules: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and accessories. Mongolia's military ration pack is more like a Russian IRP then it is an Ame...

Gulf War Beef Stew MRE Review - 1987
Apparently this Beef Stew MRE was brought back state side when Operation Desert Storm came to an end. The former owner found it along with half a case of other Meals Ready to Eat after some US soldiers departed the plane he was working on. This ration must have been stored exceptionally well because...
