You obviously have not actually ate a real MRE. They taste like shit! The only thing they are good for is getting you through the day. Take it from someone who had to eat atleast one a day for a year. Man you really are confused.

They dont. They do have the right amount of calories to get you through the day and you can survive off of them but they taste like shit and I would not recommend them to anyone. I dont care how much you want to be in the army, you are out of your right mind to say you would rather eat MRE's than sandwiches. P38 Pilot ask anyone whos in the army and they will tell you that.

Or the USAF, USMC or USN. MREs are disgusting. You can live on them, but they are not something I would prefer to sustain me. Blech!
I remember one op, I snuck in a bunch of PB&J sandwiches. I was the hero of the op and I wouldn't doubt that I could have sold one for $20. It wasn't worth selling them to me though. Seeing the guys enjoy something other than a bag-nasty was enough for me.

I did the same thing the last time we went to the field. I flew out a small footlocker with a camp stove. I also brought bread and peanut butter and jelly as well as soups and spam. Everytime I opened up my box people came wandering over. I should have set up shop and made some money.

Yep, you probably could have too.

Same thing normally goes with cigarettes also.

The one thing, well two things, that I carried with me, were granola bars and pop tarts.... I didnt like the bulk of an MRE...

Neither did I. I also took a lot of pop tarts and granola bars. Oh and dont forget the trail mix. Great for snacking on and the beef jerkey!

Those beef and cheese sticks that didn't require refrigeration were one of the things I carried, along with assorted nuts and M&Ms. I don't care much for trail mix, but will eat it if there's nothing else.

Oh yes i freaking have!
I think they are freaking delicious!!! I especially like the Beef Stew or The Pork Rinds or the Spaghetti and meatballs! I always ate them whenever we went turkey hunting or when just traveling in the woods!

I guess there's one in every unit.

Huss may have something to say about this, but I've tried the Canadian equivalent of the MRE (I can't remember what we call them), and I didn't find them too bad. I don't know if I'd want to have to live on them everyday, but they weren't bad little meals really.

I would!
