After examining the Accessory Packet last evening (previous post), I decided to get to the bottom of the "Resealed Brown Bag MRE's" mystery...
While I was pretty sure that most of those resealed MRE's had had freeze dried Pork or Beef Patties inserted inside of them...
...there were these 3 oddballs. OK... odder-balls: Lasagna (F/D), Beef Stew (F/D) & Chicken/Rice (F/D).
The Lasagna (F/D) drew the short straw. It was time for an autopsy.
First item removed: Accessory Packet A
Next, Brownie, Chocolate Covered
Fruit Mix
Cocoa Beverage Powder, Type 1
Crackers
Spoon
...and last, the guest of honor, a Mountain House Lasagna Freeze Dried Meal. Does 8933321D equate to a date code? 333rd day of 1989 or...?
I imagine the remaining two MRE's in the above pictures also have a Mountain House Meal inside.
