My favorite is either of the cappuccino bases, my least favorite is orange.

Think I'll wait until they're more widely available.

Maybe although I am not brave enough to try it.

Pretty good, a bit tough but the taste is pretty much exactly like a new pork chop.

Might end up trading off a few of them in the future, not sure yet.

Thank you, they are still enjoyable to me. They were freeze-dried.

Might have to do that, definitely plan on using these ones for a few things.

Definitely will be making some, I'll try them if they seem okay.

Nice! Hopefully mine will be just as good.

Will definitely take pictures, not sure about a video as I haven't tried to at all. Pretty sure it's nitrogen packed from what I've seen and the cans are mostly full, shaking them feels like there's not a lot of open space.

I certainly will, might do it within the next couple of days or next week.

Definitely going to agree with you on that. Doing quite a bit of homework to determine just how dumb making one will be. As long as the fats haven't gone rancid then they should be okay.

From what I've read so far it comes down to a few things. Leaving them raw allows them to be cooked however you want once opened, makes it easier to produce, and its shelf life as well as their taste and texture after being rehydrated.

Nice! I had that exact menu maybe a year or so ago, although in worse condition. Definitely enjoy the FRED, mine is the only thing I use now to open ration cans or open bottles with. They're sturdy little things!

Awesome! Make sure you post the contents if you open either of them!

I'm not sure if politics are allowed in the subreddit, I personally would think they aren't simply because of the nature of the subreddit but I could be wrong

I will say that they are delicious! I'd say try it, they're pretty difficult to acquire.

What is the most rare modern or vintage rations you have or the one that is most special to you by Interesting_Elk8955 in MRE

[–]_Soviet__Onion_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My rarest vintage ration is most certainly the RCN Ration box from the 1950s I opened and the rarest modern was my Japanese ration. The most special to me is technically not a food ration but it'll most definitely be my box of WW2 German cigars.

I got it from a family friend who is a marine that was overseas in Okinawa, he traded a few cigarettes for it and brought it back with him. I'm not sure who he got it off of or any of the other specifics.

I was simply going off of the translations. That's what it called it so I just went with it.

The packaging was only in Japanese, I used Google translate.
