Great product. Real nutrition, tasty, excellent variety, and the flameless heaters work!
Exactly what I wanted. I'm not a particularly picky eater, and I admit that I actually like MREs. Never met an MRE I *didn't* like.I travel, cross country, and keep a five day supply of emergency rations on board my truck. When I considered MREs in the past for that task, all I found were the dehydrated, low nutrition, and ridiculously over-priced meals sold at camping gear outlets. So, I used prepackaged and canned foods from grocery stores, but the options were minimal.What triggered me to renew my search was my after work interests. I enjoy astronomy and camping, and the two go together out of necessity of being out in the field and away from city lights. However, any light source can destroy the night-vision necessary when using telescopes, and ruin hours of work by those doing astrophotography. A flashlight will get you run off. No car lights, no campfires, etc., are allowed.So, warm meals are *verboten* from dusk until dawn.But now I find authentic MREs, complete with WORKING flameless ration heaters?I do not need combat rations, and I understand these are geared for civilian use, and not the high calorie of the MREs I have had from military issue.I ordered the two-case set of twenty-four meals, and one case arrived yesterday. I'm waiting to hear back about the still missing B case, and fairly certain it was a delivery error, not shipper error.I pulled out Menu 3 "Chicken, Noodles and Vegetables, in Sauce." I chose it because chicken is my least favorite form of common meat, and it took discipline to pass on a couple of favorites.Everything I expected. Even though I am at home, I tried everything.Heater worked great.I got Skittles, which I always give away.Tropical Fruit Punch (better than orange).Peanut Butter and Apple Jelly-- another win.Bland crackers (but went better-- well, in fact-- with chicken and veggies, than with the PB&J).A packet of "powdered hot sauce" (essentially, crushed red pepper, which I like).Applesauce with Raspberry Puree (a large portion-- brown, but delicious).Chicken Noodles and Veggies in sauce. Not bad at all, and nicely punched up with the supplied crush pepper "powdered sauce" (Ha!).It was all filling and tasty. I left no crumbs.I have a sugar packet, non-dairy creamer, a bit of salt, a packet of Splenda, two Chiclets, and the Skittles to trade for a mini bottle of Tabasco Sauce if there are sny takers. I'll toss the towlette and toilet paper in my backpack pocket.Lastly, I said I am not a picky eater, but I am outright insufferable about my coffee. I understand that my Federal Government is not going to buy dark roasted arabica beans, grown in in either Ethiopian or Sumatran soil, and present each kit with a French Press. So, hot water, dyed black, and dosed with caffeine is what I expected, and what I got. Could be worse. Could be tea.At less than $4.00 a meal (I paid $95 for my two cases although only receiving one case as I type), that is less than a small breakfast sandwich with a coffee at a truck stop-- and a lot better, if you ignore the coffee.Honestly, I woukd opt for this easy meal over fast food. I own a thermos, so will brew my civilized coffee before dark. That only leaves me jonesing for my daily fix of Dr. Pepper. Going to need a cooler for that.This is like my new favorite thing.What the heck am I packing that tiny camp-stove and fuel for? Oh, boiling water for my French Press, of course.

You might get duplicate meals
I do like these MREs, they're good quality and taste great. However you may not receive meals 1-24, I was missing one of the meals I was looking forward to and got a duplicate instead (of a flavor I don't like of course). I contacted the seller & they said the manufacturer can substitute meals and that they don't open the sealed cases to check what's inside. So you may wind up with duplicate meals, and not 24 unique ones. The product description needs to reflect this.

MREs are Great!
These are actual military MREs - food packs that military personnel use when doing field exercises or in actual deployment. Since each packaged ‘meal’ is roughly 1200 calories, they can be used as a short-term prepackaged nutritionally balanced daily food ration!!! They also include drink powders (coffee, Gatorade, etc) and condiments (hot sauce, etc) as appropriate for the entree. There is a wide variety of meals (24 total) so that a person can do this ‘meal plan’ for a few weeks without getting ‘menu fatigue’. I have done this several times with good success!!!I highly recommend giving them a try!!!
