Astronaut Thanksgiving? Yup - MRE!

[RockyRaab]

The astronauts aboard the Space Station will have Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow, and it's an MRE. Turkey, mashed potatoes, cornbread stuffing, cherry/blueberry cobbler. All in MRE pouches.

(Actually, all their food is packed in MRE retort pouches, individualized and color-coded for each US astronaut.) See the video and read more here http://www.space.com/34809-how-space-th ... -made.html

Slightly off topic, but there are a series of youtube videos. Where a particular astronaut records his day to day activities aboard the station. That also include some specifically about food, and experiments and ideas involving the Myth Busters show. Can't call exactly the name of the video series. I'll make another post with a link once found.

Thanks for the link Rocky! Damn, now I want a SPACE MRE!
