Wheat Snack Bread-Twin Pack

Post by mreheater72 »

Hi guys,

I´m not quite sure when the "Wheat Snack Bread" (WSB) appears in MREs for the first time (due to the "MRE Menu List" it was 1999, due to the "MRE Improvement List" it was 2001 :? ). But it is sure that 2011 for the first time a "Twin Pack"-Variant was packed. The photo review shows both the usual "WSB" and the "WSB-Twin Pack":

Thanks for the review

Though i posted one also but cant find it, must still be in the camera.

These are very good, almost as good as sterling mickey style.

Even better boiled for a few min

I got them when I bought some Jalapeno Cheese packs from Treesuit. I couldn't tell a difference in flavor between them and the original WSB. Mm...just thinking about them *drool*.
The best possible MRE: 1lb bag of Jalapeño cheese spread.
