I ran across this article on the web

www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1635210/posts

It tells the changes coming up in the 2007 menu.

Granola with blueberries or strawberries
Toaster pastries (chocolate chip or french toast)
Chipolte snack bread
Chocoletto's (chocolate toffee candy)
Twizzler nibs (red licorice)
Chocolate covered coffee beans
Patriotic cookies with flag or soldier pictures imprinted on them
Cheez it's {hot and spicy)
Irish cream flavored coffee
Banana strawberry dairy shake
Salsa verde (condiment)
Butter buds
Splenda sweetener

Chicken pesto pasta will replace chicken with cavatelli
Lasagna with vegetables will replace vegetable manicotti

2007 menu to start production in 2008, will reach the field in 2009 or 2010.

Look's like tasty stuff to look forward to in the future :D :D

Thanks for the link. I've been waiting to see the next round of changes.

2007 menus to start production in 2008? Is that a typo?

I thought that each year's production revisions start showing up around the 3rd calendar month of each year.

That Chicken Pesto pasta dish sounds real good. As far as I am concerned they can make all of the MREs of the Italian variety...YUM!

Although they can leave the Chicken and Salsa, Fajitas and Beef Enchiladas meals.
