			You beat me to it, MCIera. I was going to comment that the nacho cheese pretzels looked and tasted exactly like Combos. It's almost as if they just buy them by the 500 lb. bag and re-package them themselves into an MRE packet.

Cup empty.

			Right now i'm eating a pack of M&M Crispy that i found in an MRE from 2004 and it tastes/smells/looks like new. 
I believe the official shelf life of M&M's is 13 months, not 53 months.
