and it is not bad at all. I actually liked it. I had the chicken with noodles and veggies.

It is pretty cool ... comes with its own flameless heat source which get REAL freaking hot. The water actually boils in the bag.

Then you get a pack of Reese pieces, 2 pcs of gum, fig bar, cracker, processed cheese spread, cocoa powder, coffee, sugar, creamer, wet towel, tabasco, salt and napkins.

Fig bar -- tastes like a normal fig bar
Cheese spread -- HORRIBLE
Cracker -- tastes like cardboard
Reeses -- comes in its own orig packaging
Gum -- okay

have yet to try the coffee or the cocoa powder.

I heated the meal and then added a bunch of Tabasco and salt and it tasted pretty good. I ended up eating the whole thing. Each MRE is equal to 1200-1300 calories.

Pretty nest stuff -- Now, I will try some other flavors !!

How did I get the MRE -- next door neighbor is a Capt. in the US Army stationed at Ft. Bliss.

He has a few at home, so he gave me one to try.
