Yes - I have a couple of cases of MCWs from 2004. In one case, they're labeled "Food Packet, Cold Weather" and in the other, they're "Meal, Cold Weather".
I attribute the (mis?)labeling to them being from Ameriqual - those guys never seem to care to follow the labeling standards.

Just ordered several cases of these from a recent group buy. They should be here today. I also have some of the old style ones also.

I llike those MCW's. I have a few of the new ones ..they are excellent!!!
Plenty of good wholesome satisfying food...But they are so elusive and difficult to get.
Hey kman....How much would you sell me just a few packets???
Peace!!

So are these still in production? I would expect them to be useless since were not at war with a nation that is known for cold climates.

yes and now they are called MCW's....
Check here in the US current rations and check for MCW's....As I said they are also using the same menus for LRRP's.
Peace!!
