Yes - I have a couple of cases of MCWs from 2004. In one case, they're labeled "Food Packet, Cold Weather" and in the other, they're "Meal, Cold Weather".

I attribute the (mis?)labeling to them being from Ameriqual - those guys never seem to care to follow the labeling standards.

Just ordered several cases of these from a recent group buy. They should be here today. I also have some of the old style ones also.

So are these still in production? I would expect them to be useless since were not at war with a nation that is known for cold climates.

Check here in the US current rations and check for MCW's....As I said they are also using the same menus for LRRP's.
