I am always on the lookout for desserts, wheat snack bread, cheese spreads and beverage base powders of all varieties. Keep me in mind.

This is has got to be the best deal going for wheat snack bread:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 5155085418
$12.95 for 100
If they look different, it's because they're in HDR packaging - but the contents are the same as the MRE wheat snack bread. I picked up an order of 100 from this guy a while back.

Thanks for the clarification on that Kman, I was looking at it, but because the packaging looked odd I passed it over. I will look at picking that auction up possibly. I only wish that he had 100 cheese spreads to go with it!

I looked into this but the shipping for the 100 snack breads to me is $19.84. I guess I will have to pass.

That seems high for shipping. Box should only weigh 13 pounds max. No matter where you are in the US it shouldnt cost that much.

Even with the slightly inflated shipping (it's $14 for me), I still think it's a good deal - comes out to around $0.33 per item. Now if they'd just throw in some cheese spread for DirtyDave, I don't think he'd be able to pass up that deal.

Hmmm,looks like thats right, a 15 pound MRE sized box would be $19.48 from Moscow,ID to Miami.
A full MRE weight (23lbs.) would be 27.48.
Shipping is out to lunch.
