Today we went for Beef diced with gravy
The items inside.
The meal plated, everything was good except the creamer(smelles like old milk...) and cheese spread. the beef was not dry and the gravy was just perfect.
Even the brownie was okay, no rancid nuts.
These 1983 mres must have been stored cold since the day they was made.
cheers ken and son.
