1983 Diced Turkey with Gravy
todays review, Turkey diced with gravy
We used fresh cheese with the crackers but my son eate the apple jelly as a jello and it was nice. forgott to take a picture of it.
the items spread out for eating, and the mapple nut cake-sweeet cake no rancid nuts at al! we crumbeled 1/2 of the potato patty in the gravy and mixed, that was neat eating the turkey held up very good.
cheers from ken and son.

Just stop and think for a moment - you ate food that was already getting a bit long in the tooth when Ronald Reagan was President.

Honestly? I suspect cost. Freeze-drying is an inherently expensive process. I'm not sure what the actual unit gubbmint cost is for a case of MREs but it is somewhere around $120 or so. They have to keep all of the items in a menu around for at least a little while, they have to pencil every single item out down to the wet wipe and matches, spoon, etc., everything is contracted, forms filled out in multi-triplicate and formalized for fiscal 2027 etc. Oregon Freeze Dry (Parent company of Mountain House) has long been a supplier for the military, I'm sure they are competitive against anyone. Nutritional or operational requirements or whatever they call it are for about 1200 calories per meal. There's different ways to achieve that, some are a lot better than others as far as cost goes, and some would be a lot better in terms of protein versus empty carbs.
Some people might complain about the FD pork or beef patties, dessert fruits, potatoes - but they will be completely edible long after the "wet pack" foods have turned to sludge.

I'd have to agree on the freeze dried not saying that they will never go bad but deffanantly more shelf stable than wet pack
