  • Eating an entire classic 28 year old US MRE. Check out how well this one held up - it's a mini food miracle! Shows how well this awesome US Military Ration relic of a menu has held up.
    They certainly don't make 'em like they used to! It's all about storage conditions. An MRE is a terrible thing to waste.
    Warning: Don't try this at home. Yours might not have held up so well.

      I joined the Army in 1985. I always liked the MREs. We would be out in the field and a lot of the guys would bring their own food because they said they didn’t like “Marie’s cooking”. I usually came back with a duffel bag full of them. I would bring them home eat them occasionally. There were a few menus that even my wife liked. I’ll still pick some up every now and then. Love them! Thanks, Steve!

    I was a brand new infantry E-2 Private in '92 at JOTC Panama. I ate this meal almost every day for a month because everyone else in my squad hated it and I always got last dibs when rations were resupplied. So, when we were in the field, becoming a "hashivore" was a necessary survival adaptation to my jungle environment. We had the little bottles of Tabasco in the accessory pack that I'd always add to it, and the sweat would drip off of my nose into it as I ate, sitting flopped against my rucksack, usually in the mud. But my mouth still waters watching the video, and I would totally eat that right now.

    This is the only vintage MRE I ever had. It was exactly this menu. I had a friend who had been in the air force and he had saved a few that he had gotten at some point. They were on a shelf in his dads garage. Had been there for 10 years or so and I asked him if I could have one. He said sure and I took it home.. more out of curiosity than anything. But when I opened it it was perfectly fine and I ended up eating most of eveything in it. I definitely remember the oatmeal bar and the apple jelly which I put on the crackers. Now all this time later I'm watching Steve open another one. Nice!

Wow, I love that malted barley smell.” As the Grateful Dead said “What a long strange trip it’s been!” Love the reviews Steve. Rock on! USMC 1986-1990

    • @jeffyoung60

      I learned from experience that if you could warm up the corned beef hash then it tasted good. The warmer the better. Hot corned beef hash tasted better than warm corned beef hash which was superior to cold corned beef hash. Adding Tabasco sauce made the corned beef hash even tastier. The corned beef hash entrée predated the issuance of the new-fangled, disposable chemical heating pouches. Had those been available earlier, the corned beef hash might have had a better reputation and greater acceptance. Once on a field exercise I passed by a decrepit, broken-down wood shack. On the floor lay about six to eight discarded mres, all corned beef hash entrees. The mres were in unopened, very good condition, meaning it had been rejected and discarded not that long ago. I collected up all of those discarded corn beef hash mres.
