Re: MCW Review on the Shores of a Frozen Lake | Chicken, Spicy, Oriental with Rice | Menu No. 2

Rocky's Tip: Use 2/3 the recommended water, and slowly pour the food into the water, not the other way around. No dry pockets or excessive stirring that way. Add water towards the end of the soak period, and only if needed. That's a great tip! I'll have to try the adding the food to the water thing.

Re: Weird MRE Beverage base?

Interesting! I hadn't seen that flavor yet. The raspberry and lemonade ones aren't too bad. I've got a ton of unopened accessory packets, I'll have to dig through them to see if I can find one.

Dang, I had always wondered what one/s made Steve sick. I think there was a Ukrainian one in there somewhere as well.

Re: Had my first Canadian IMP. I WANT MORE!!!!!!!!

IMPs are great, for sure! Literally the only downside of them is the fact that they don't come with a heating method. The drink pouches are amazing. Why can't the US copy that design?

Re: Previously unknown PLA rations

I'd be curious to try those. I am actually a pretty big fan of PLA rations. The ones I've had (about a dozen or so) have been very tasty.

This is the kind I usually have.

Hey Norge! I really miss this entree. Many fond memories of it when camping as a kid.

Re: 2009 Tuna MRE Review

Good review. Yeah, that mayo is worthless. The tuna is probably my least favorite entree. I’m not a big seafood person though, so no surprise.

Thanks for sharing!
