[BigMark]

This is in a crappy format, but it's pretty interesting to see whats coming out and what the troops think about it.

dammit. you beat me to it.

i like the "Meals Ready to Excrete" title...


some comments from the article:

"Eight complete meals were tested, with mixed results. One soldier complained that a chicken and dumplings MRE triggered, "a flatulence symphony in my tent all night." A stuffed cabbage MRE led one evaluator to exclaim, "The meal sucked! Do you even try this crap before you give it to us?" That same MRE also led another reviewer to write, "Don't ever give the stuffed cabbage to a soldier again, even POWs deserve better." One evaluator questioned whether the new MREs should actually be tested by non-military diners: "Soldiers will eat all of this nastiness no matter what, because we have to eat." Not all reviews were negative, however, especially when it came to a chicken loaf MRE with a tasty dessert. "The vanilla pudding is so good that I ripped it open. Licked the inside and rolled around on top of it like a dog," one enthusiastic soldier noted."

I'm volunteer for testing the rats : I'm not a soldier anymore and I love the stuffed cabbage (or is it stuffed garbage?)
