Hi BB -

Could be. Wouldn't be the first time, I'm sure!

I'm just wondering if they "intended" to release the pineapple as a future item so they listed it anyway. Possibly to test its acceptance before production began? Like the cookies. I ate a ton of those Dehydrated Pork Patties and never once encountered cookies let alone the pineapple.

I remember the cookies packed in the older MCI's and in the current MRE's. But throughout the 80's - not that it never happened - I never ate an MRE with cookies or pineapple included. The only "wet" fruit I remember is the Applesauce and the dehydrated fruit cocktail which I liked better dry as the flavor to me was more concentrated.

So, it could be a mis-print. Could have been listed but intended for future procurement, possibly due to production problems.

I remember the square ones and never could figure out why some "genius" decided to stop including them in the meals later on. I don't clearly remember the round cookies but that is not to say I never had them. But I definitely remember the square chocolate-covered cookies...
