just wanted to say: al cakes with fruit and nuts that have been
baked will turn dark,just look on the english plum pudding
or christmas cake.
The nuts can taste a bit rancid afther some years but its totaly
harmles.
i have opened and eaten many us cold weather mres old stock
and never found any bad nuts
cheers from steel belly norge burp

it was also dark but tasted nice just to fruity.

Hi norge,

I agree to you, eating rancid nuts or the dark fruits will certainly be harmless, but the taste is awful.

The MRE-Fruit Cake from 1985 (see photo) I opened a few months ago , you remember, was in comparison to the MCI-Fruit Cake in very good condtion!



So long mreheater72

POUND CAKE.....Now I will take one of those, where is the peaches? All those years and still good, amazing to me. As for the fruit cake, that was one of my favorites when I was in Nam. There was plenty of them because no one wanted them.
Great review of the cakes and rolls.
