Heating and snack time
Good thing they are precooked, i didn't notice that until now. A look inside, you can clearly see the bacon Oat Meal Heating:
Notice the two o2 scavengers in the nut raisin mix, not sure if its on purpose Orange Base: Snacks:
The nut raisin mix was very fresh. same with the fig bar NNF

Time To Eat I drained a lot of water out of the eggs before i plated, again a large serving, easily large enough for two. Same with the oatmeal, this is about half of the pack The Eggs and Bacon were very good, i was surprised. A lot of bacon in there also.

The oatmeal was bland at best, so i spiced it up with the cocoa mix Much better with the cocoa in it

Accessory pack w/green gum A very good MRE, i think i like it better than the Menu 1 so far

Great review and pics NNF! Now why could'nt they have had this stuff back during the cold war? Back then if we wanted a breakfast ration in the field, it was either the ham and eggs, chopped MCI or the newer Omelette w/Ham MRE. Oh well, our troops deserve the best considering all they do for us.

Thank you for that great review of a scarce US ration . I have some MCWs in my collection, but I never opened one yet .

Much better with the cocoa in it...

Responding to your pic I guess you used too much water for preparing the oatmeal. Less water means more taste and better eating

So long mreheater72
