One of the Best! Menu 24 - Southwest Beef and Black Beans

Post by NateP » Sat Feb 03, 2018 8:37 pm

By far one of the absolute best tasting, most complex, and well thought out MREs out there!

yeah I like this one man. It was one of the first US mres I had, with several more of this menu eaten since. It does have a nice bit of flavour to the main in it

I wonder why Chipotle tortillas aren't in more MREs. They are so tastey!

Really good review. That apple cake looks like it's the bomb.

Really good review.
Hey, thanks man, I really do appreciate it. You are one of my favorite reviewers so that means a lot.

The apple cake was amazing. Probably one of the best desserts I've had from an MRe.

This MRE is probably my 2nd favourite out of them all... but I'm one of those weirdos who really loves the Chicken Pesto Pasta. Hahaha
I haven't had that particular pound cake before, but I do have a Menu 24 from 2016 here, hopefully it's an item that they still included.
Seeing this review makes me realize that I haven't actually reviewed a regular US MRE yet on my channel!

You know, I don't hate the chicken pesto. I actually had one recently and should have the review up soon.

It definitely falls into the "better than most" category, but maybe not my favorite.
