Why are we coming up with new ways to feed soldiers when in fact our wars will be fought by drones?

We really should be trying to come up with a way to stop the T-1000 when it arrives from the future.  That's where I want my tax $ to go.

It's a great question, but I didn't post the link to start a discussion about wars or taxes...

just technology. ;)

I'd eat em in a heart beat. I lived on MRE's in Beirut for 8 months, 3 meals a day. The article says not till 2025, I'll be long gone by then anyway.

Drones fly themselves and follow a prescribed task-set.  Un-manned aircraft are Predator's and quad-copters, where there is a human behind the controls.  Sorry, I'm in the industry and hate the word drone, it doesn't accurately describe the aircraft in my eyes.  Maybe I should ban myself for this comment?

I have and would still rather eat MRE's than have "nutrient rich, liquid matrices".  yuk, sounds like it would really taste nasty!

Yeah, seems long to me.  That's over a decade.  Meanwhile, how long was it from Kennedy's speech to Armstrong's "small step", like 8 years?

Maybe it will be ready for your retirement party, Kopf.  Article does say they're currently used for cake decorations.

3 MRE's / day??

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

My neighbour's son is in the Army Reserve. He had a couple of extra MREs after a stint in the bush.

I brought one home and pulled it apart. So much in there. I understand though that Aussie MREs are the povo option compared to US fare.
