Dear PETA, Please see the following post by oneredflag... he's feeding outdated MRE food to unsuspecting poor little birdies which may lead to their demise and potentially stop them from crapping all over our cars, F'n birds! :shock: :mrgreen:

That was a direct quote from the eBay listing trying to pass a late 80's / 1990's MRE off as WWII ration. :lol: worth a good chuckle...

I'm going to assume that it was just an honest mistake. But I'm of the belief that if you're going to sell something, you should really do some research and make sure you're not falsely advertising something. Looks like they corrected it now so I give them a pass for that. I will say the pricing is rather exceptional for one MRE.

I just HAD to share this. Look at the price that this seller wants for just ONE First Strike Ration!!!!
They have every menu and each individual one is that price!

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/302374700262
