Sometimes when I'm at home eating my wife's cooking I miss the MREs. Don't tell her I said that.

I love the Brits but, honestly, how reliable are they for judging food quality and taste?

Christ, not to be an asshole, but aren't COs supposed to be in BETTER physical shape then the NCOs? You know...to lead by example? The captain really needs to work out otherwise she's just dead weight in my opinion. This is why Marines give Army shit all the time.

@soadfansoad Tootsie rolls are one form of chocolate snack that *isn't* sold in the UK, apart from the American Candy websites.

Still not nearly as good as the british rations

I love chilli mac.. and the funny thing is I'm not in military. My uncle is and he sends food like this sometimes.

I LOVE MRE's! I swear that's one of the best parts of being in the Army for me. No BS or sarcasm.

@1cme1 I think the ry-krisp stuff is good. Sometimes it helps to put jelly on it though.
