    Whats your favorite MRE?

    For anyone in the military, you know what Im talkin about. I just had an FTX this weekend and ate 7 or 8 MRE's. (meals ready to eat) for those who dont know, the entree is on the package but the rest is a mystery. Its like Christmas morning when you open that tan plasic bag to find out what goodies you get with your chicken w/ thai sauce, or bean and rice burrito.

    My personal favorite is beef stew, vegetable crackers w/ jalapeno cheese spread, spiced apples, cookies w/ pan coated chocolate dics (M&M's), and chocolate dairy milkshake. Other good entrees are pork rib, turkey/mashed taters n gravy, and beefsteak n mushrooms.

    Each one has around 2000 calories and I had 4 on saturday. 8000 cals never tasted so good.

    I like the chicken and rice but the dehydrated pare made me gag!
    1. Once a cheat always a cheat!
    2. YES, SHE can get pregnant the first time!
    3. NO, PULLING out IS NOT a RELIABLE method of Birth Control. DAMMMMIT..... Wrap that shyte UP!!

    Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.

    For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage.

    What the mind can conceive....the body will achieve!

    mmmmmmmmmm, weve made sumthin like that in the field. Its all about trading and gettin your fav stuff. This time we took all the coffee, creamers, sugars, and cappaccino packs, with one hot coccoa pack, and made a mega brew sun morning. It was strong as hell.

    take the creamer and add it to the sugar packet, take a lighter to it and it turns into a sugar cookie. Other than that I would have to say chili mac is my fav.

    I love MRE's how many calories are in those things? Seems like I read somewhere that one MRE a day could sustain a soldier in the field.

    One MRE has about 2000 calories. Thats enough for one day but I would think most soldiers would eat at least 2 spread out thru the day.
