I just got 6 trays. I'm planning on using my vacuum sealer to break them down into smaller packages. Then, I'm going to freeze them. That way when I want a quick meal all I have to do is dump the puch into boiling water. I got the pulled pork and the buffalo chicken. I, also, got the scalloped potatoes with ham. I don't recall the others. I'll have to look when I get home.

Yeah, I'll skip that, I'd rather just spend the $20.

Been there, done that. They were just coming out with T rations when I retired. Heck, when I got out mre's were new. This was 1984 FYI.

I know thats right. You got out just when I went in. The drills at Benning kept telling us, C-Rats are gone, and you cheese-dicks are going to eat these brown bags of sheisse, like it or not. Now get down, and Push Georgia Away! :wink:
