US MRE Review Menu 1 Chili with Beans (2014) [Illustrated]

Cornbread, damn good cornbread! I guess some food stuffs just take to long term storage better then others, this smells and taste like a homemade Jiffy cornbread and that's a positive point, that most fall short of!

White Wheat Snake Bread, not bad, but it did snap in two, unlike the Crackers i've been opening... I think this menu would of been better if it had crackers and not bread. For some reason, all the bread I get from US MRE's always have a smell of preservatives that the Crackers just don't.

Banana Nut Ranger Bar! THANK YOU SIR, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER!!!! It was a little dry, but it smelled like banana nut bread! The bananas were in candy form inside. Vary tasty, however it was so dry that I found myself thirsty after every bite.

Cheese Spread. It's like golden liquid crack to me, ain't no shame here!

Chili with Beans, or how I learned to stop worrying and love the tooting! By its self, it taste like a Hormel can I had a while back. I recommend adding some salt, and if you can take it, the red chili powder! All around all the items in this menu work together well and I will be buying this one more!

That is one of the truly golden menus that needs no tweaking at all. The cornbread is amazing. I just ate a 2016 chili yesterday and they now make TFF cornbread!! Great review btw.

Great review and pics! I agree with Shawker71, the cornbread is a great addition to this menu, and is pretty darn good for a shelf-stable item. Thanks for sharing! :)
