Just looked through a 2015 FSR case and there was nothing with a bagel in it

Hard or soft water, perhaps?

I believe the 0088 is the date code. 2010...wow. I've had a few of the meals here and there over the years and they are exactly what they appear to be-- generally familiar MRE components in a different package.
