Anyone heard of this/tried it? I'm extremely interested since the breakfast items in MREs are always the most limited.

I thought I had heard of this before...looks like it's one of the breakfast items in the First Strike Rations. Check out the FSR menu:

Ahh, no wonder I couldn't find it, I was looking on the wrong menu list.. Interesting, I'll have to pick one up and give it a review, if they're any good, I can tell you I'll be buying a case or two!
EDIT
Doh! Forgot about the minimum order, I guess I'll be waiting until the 15th to pick one up, and stock up on a few other things I'm out of.

What's the minimum order there? I was thinking of ordering a bunch of stuff I hadn't tried before.

Only $22, and of course shipping is included, which is what I love about shopping there.

Break - fast - items?!
There are (will be) breakfast with them? Like what?
We know "continetal breakfast" only, depends to the country you are.
Stef from France will have a diffrent breakfast than we in Germany have.
(See diffrent breakfast set in RCIR and EPa)
In USA breakfast is diffrent than European etc...
Can you explain (or link) how and what a (the) breakfast items will be
I know from my times in the States IHOP pan cakes (Miami), beagles and coffee, sunny side up eggs... (NYC) etc.

...right, an in Ukraine I once had some grilled pork leaver with boiled potatoes
My favourite breakfast is the full (I mean really FULL) English breakfast with scrambled egges, bacon (crisp please), sausages, toasts and baked beans...
It's hard to put all this stuff into a MRE pack

Well, it looks like stuffed french toast, toaster pastries (poptarts with no icing, boo) and they're putting pound cake in for breakfast apparently, the link k-man posted above for the FSRs the first item on each one is "breakfast". Oh, and continental breakfast here in the states is usually a cup of coffee and a packaged pastry or doughnuts and maybe some fruit, don't be fooled by the hotel saying they have breakfast, it's more like a snack before you go get breakfast in my experience.
French toast is just a piece of bread dipped in an egg/milk mixture with some vanilla and cinnamon or whatever you choose to put in there and fried in a pan, then usually at least in Texas we put syrup on them, which I assume is regular, probably if you get them at a restaurant they have powdered sugar (confectioners sugar) on them also.
Heh, I'm never going to NYC again! I've never really wanted to try beagle. j/k Housil, I couldn't come close with my German, but it's bagel. Beagles are little bloodhound looking dogs, as annoying and next to useless, but YMMV.
