You beat me to it, MCIera. I was going to comment that the nacho cheese pretzels looked and tasted exactly like Combos. It's almost as if they just buy them by the 500 lb. bag and re-package them themselves into an MRE packet.

Hi Twan! I ate the soup three days ago, I shared it with my wife:

10 noodles for her,
10 noodles for me,
1 piece chicken meat for her,
1 piece chicken meat for me!
Cup empty. :lol:

Right now i'm eating a pack of M&M Crispy that i found in an MRE from 2004 and it tastes/smells/looks like new.

I believe the official shelf life of M&M's is 13 months, not 53 months. :P
