Hence and why the living history repro of the foot of the 24-hour pack uses the Quaker porridge to go blocks as a replacement

I didn't even know they were a thing, but yeah they actually pretty much just look like flapjack, do they recombine into porridge if you add water?

I've bought some cases of US MRE's annually since 2017 and i feel like the enjoyment factor has gone a bit backwards in some departments.
