$22 isn't that bad considering that it's 72 entrees. The box probably weights around 26 pounds.

The seller doesn't disclose how old they are but you know they have to be from the mid-1990s.
Do you know when they print the four digit PD on it? I can´t see any on them.
It should be right at production, isn´t it?!

I'm trying to remember back to when I last opened a really old MRE. I can recall seeing the four digit datecodes on entree boxes going back to 1997 but I just don't recall any from earlier.
At the very least, the case the entrees come in should have a date.
