Re: Dating HDR individual meals

It seems like this is a 2010, as you stated the main meals are in their own cardboard box, the newer ones seem to have the main meal loose with a separate cardboard printout for the nutrition facts. It could be possible that 2020 HDR exists as is still procured to this day, and the latest batches I ...

Re: 2013 menu 4 Pork Sausage in Cream Gravy

Mmmmm looks unbelievably delicious, and I only got into MREs and rations the very year this dish was phased out (2015).

Re: 1992 Escalloped Potato and Ham.

Looks incredible from top to bottom, just wondering on how you store MREs to maintain that quality even decades after made?

Re: 1982 Beef Ground with Spiced Sauce

That looks really good, it is crazy how food can be edible and delicious almost 40 years after it was made. I might try the "successor" to this dish tonight, the Beef Taco Filling from 2015.

Entree - 2015 Mexican Style Chicken Stew

Had some MRE components for dinner last night, including 2015 Mexican Style Chicken Stew, 2017 Jalapeño Cheddar Cheese packet, and a 2010 Vegetable Crackers. I didn't have any extra FRH so I just opened up the entree pouch and microwaved the dish. I really enjoyed all of the components, especially t...

Snack - First Strike Bar - 2015

Felt like a small snack for the afternoon, and decided on a chocolate first strike bar (2015) and Kars Sweet N Salty Mix (b.b. 2019).

Snack - Cookies - 2010 and 2018

Glad to be a part of this forum, and wanted to start off with a picture review as they are my favorite types of reviews (prefer them over video currently). Felt like having something sweet, and so I decided to try out some different MRE cookies. The first cookie/s was shortbread from a 2010 HDR foll...

Re: Where did all the Cran-Raspberry First Strike bars go?

I feel exactly the same, Cran-Raspberry FSB are incredible! They are tough to find compared to the chocolate ones (not sure if because more popular or less made). The 2 ways I have gotten them in the past is through buying them directly through eBay (occasionally will see the flavor in stock) and ge...
