never had it, but I'll be getting FSRs soon. Looks tasty.
most wanted: RCIR, MCI/B units, IMPs, anything old, and a packet or two of RAFCO soup. PM if you've got these, or anything else to sell that isn't too expensive.

I had the chili w/ beans menu from Meal Kit supply. I ordered a couple of cases about a year back and have been going through one of them to see how they stack up against a genuine MRE. I've been impressed so far. Everything in them looks to be the real deal, down to the Coffee Instant Type 2! This one had the main, Santa Fe style rice and beans, cheddar cheese spread, crackers, and a pound cake. Drinks were Grape and Cocoa beverage powder. That chili with the Rice and beans is tasty! Especially when you mix a little of the cheddar cheese spread in it!

Grape is the best, altho I'd like to try a Cherry someday

Well if we're doing this, after 15 years, I'll join in.

Ate a Stirling Foods Pizza Slice. It's seen some heat and was pretty brown, but the last one I had didn't treat me bad. Might as well.

All the best, Gents.

So for today 10/5 I cracked open the Mocha Dessert Bar. Excellent tasting. Reminds me of maybe what a single consistency Milky Way bar might taste like.

I've been working on a FSR ration since Friday. Menu 7 packed in 2017.

Started with the nut and raisin mix, turkey nuggets and spicy cheese snack crackers on Friday. All quite good, really. the Spicy cheese crackers are basically jalapeño flavor Cheese Its. Oh, the chocolate First Strike dessert bar was good.

Over the weekend I finished off the above and had the Beef nacho cheese "shelf stable sandwich". Not so good...it is really a 4 inch long chunk of beef stick in a bread pocket. Meh. The Fruit Punch drink was OK. Apple Cinnamon First Strike bar was tasty, too.

Tomorrow I plan to finish it up and eat the "Sweet and Spicy" tuna, snack bread, bacon and potato soup/spread and whatever else is in there.

Edit: had the Zapplesauce as part of breakfast today, too.
