Having eaten more than my fair share of these things I would recommend
staying away from the omelette and chunk o'ham meals. The chicken and
beef
stew are the most popular here in Korea. And watch out for the oatmeal
cookie cube, it tastes pretty good but you wont need to go to the
bathroom
for the next three days(unless you than eat the brownie). Most of the
items
are edible and really depends on personal taste. After 3 days of
nothing
but MREs your body starts doing weird things and nobody likes to be
around
each other much.
Oh yeah. IF you eat everything in the pack it is 3000 calories.
NOTE:
save the heater elements. you can make nifty little bomb devices out of
them. we plan on throwing a couple hundred into the local swimming
pool.
Wonder if magnesium and chlorine react?
