Had to have a old style mre for the evening snack
So i grabbed the Escalloped Potato and Ham and when opening the mre it was a 1992 model.
The items layed out
The meal on a plate
Everything was wounderful,only the cocoa was rock hard..
And as usual the brownie was just like back in the days
Gave the apple jelly a try to since i used fresh cheese spread on the crackers, and it was just fine.
cheers ken

Looking good all the way around
Did you try a little bite of the cocoa just to see if it was bad? Glad the brownie was good, last one I had was bad. Thanks for sharing.

I heard a story about that stuff.
A couple guys were in Italy staying at a hotel. One of them opened a can of that. The cleaning staff came in the room, got a weird look on their face, and left immediately. The Hotel manager then appeared and apologized profusely, and Comped them another hotel room. LOL!!

Looks incredible from top to bottom, just wondering on how you store MREs to maintain that quality even decades after made?
