we made the ultimate taste test on an ´83 MRE case, expected them not to be good anymore,
but really a whole lot of the items were still in best condition. just like fresh MRE.....
This is what was still delicious::::
Freeze Dried Fruits - Strawberries, Peaches, Fruit Mix
Freeze Dried Meat - Beef + Pork Patties (best entree)
Chocolate Cookies, Caramels, Bubble Gum
Crackers and Jelly
peanut butter and cheese contens became fluid with some harder stuff in it, had to knead the packages for a while
to make it creamy again...... but did not taste different at all.....
nearly all of the pound cakes
just the pineapple cake was not that good anymore,
pineapple pieces became to a kind of dark slime that smelled bad....
Coffee, Creamer, Sugar,.....
just the cocoa beverage powder changed into something different, like some kind of chocolate,
but after mixing it up with water and shake well, it became the same cocoa drink like we all love....
Those things were bad and not good anymore::::
Appelsauce dark brown bitter taste....
Potato Pattie FD smelled and tasted like old fat...
Fudge Bar dry and sandy, bad taste, had to spit out....
...and with the meals, i just did a taste on the beans with tomato sauce and the meatballs,
it tasted just like any MRE and and so i eat it all up.....
...but later, for some reason i decided not to eat any other of the meals,
maybe a genetically message tellin me to stop.......
Here´s also a nice picture tour to see , of opening the case....
