Hi guys,

the last three days my nephew and I did a hike in the east of Hessen, Germany (near the town of Fulda and Bad Hersfeld). We walked about 95 km, enjoyed the great landscape, the weather and needless to say our MREs.

Here are some photos:

Ahh...but what was nephew's impression of our MRE's? I see he's wearing our ACU camouflage but how did your guys meal go over?

My nephew really likes MREs, not all entrees, but most of all.

During our hiking tour we ate three MREs:

Menu No. 23 Chicken with Cavatelli, 2001
Menu No. 11 Pasta w/Vegetables in Tomato Sauce 2004
Menu No. 5 Chicken Breast 2007

We used the FRHs, all tastes delicious!
