In my opinion your pics and your collection is great, never boring! Thanks for sharing!
It is again and again amazing, how much different packages they had! Your pics show some cardboard varations of the main meals, I have never seen before! Perhaps the old MREs they used in Norway differ from the ones they used in Germany

Meanwhile I recognized that my old stock MRE collection can not to keep up with yours

So long mreheater72

I wonder, is that MRE tissue used for toiletry purposes? or for wiping your hands after eating? I looked up some rations one day and found that the troops receive a HCR or HCP I believe which includes toiletry items including toilet paper.

The paper in the accessory pouch (back in the day) used to be labeled as toilet paper.

Comes in handy (get it).

That's exactly how it was used for.

But with today's variety of hygiene products you can easily find something better and more useful to use.
