Sandwiches.......in a can

I can see a market for this, especially in this area with hurricane season upon us. Why not??? Probably better than an MRE. :lol:

 

DS1 says he'd eat the BBQ. :ack:

 

As I recall, MREs were two lies for the price of one: never a meal, never ready to eat. Also called "Meals Refused by Everyone" and a host of others.
Of course, I had the first iterations of them, following my beloved B-3 unit of C-rations: Ham & Eggs, Beans and baby cranks, Beef with Shrapnel...

Yet, if you're hungry enough..you'll eat.

 

Interesting for sure! :lol:

 

:ack: DH of course had some when he was active duty and we ordered some for disaster prep, but I've never actually eaten one.

 

I ate a couple of varieties about 20-25 years ago. I hope they've gotten better. :ack:

That being said, if you're hungry enough.....

 

While I haven't had an MRE since 1993 the ones I did have while in the field weren't too bad, and based on the menus they have now they are probably pretty tasty.

A menu list by year.

 

Dang. They did not go back to 1958. Pretty bad back then.

 

I was just reading about these this morning. Surprised it took them so long.

 

Laughed when I read this, gcoats. Daddy said he'd rather eat the plants and bugs he did. He said those were a delicacy compared to the MREs back then and into the early 1970s.

Sandwiches in a can....I'd rather eat beanie weenies. I took cans of beanie weenies and other items with me to Russia/Ukraine. After eating so many potatoes I pulled a can out and they were wonderful. Glad they make those pull tops in today's world.
