Tea/coffee/snack bar/chocolate/tinned fruit/chewing gum/crackers/spreads/powered energy drink/and a variety of meals such as braised beef and veggies/stew/pasta/or such and an assortment of other sundry items.

I was amazed how much there was in the pack. The instructions stated that where possible ALL the contents of each MRE should be consumed each day.
2001 Ducati  Monster 900S ie
JE high comp pistons, bit of porting, open airbox with DP filter, PC3 with custom map, CCW matched injectors, Termignoni cf slip ons, 14:39 gearing.

Gone but not forgotten!

"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.

Sounds like the stuff I get when mountain climbing---compact and high in calories/energy.  I was imagining a pack that was only slightly improved from the hardtack (basically flour + water + salt) that civil war soldiers lived on.

I survived a long time on the old C-rations and with the exception of the legendary Ham and Mother-F*****s, they were OK.  Years later on a wildland fire crew I was forced to eat MRE's.  Yecch is too kind of a term.  Of course I'm sure the K-ration generation had similar things to say about C-rats.

It all started with TV dinners……..only people living in Zero-G should have to eat stuff from tubes/wrappers, etc.

My dad, a WWII vet, used to tell me stories about chasing (not choking) chickens and rabbits on the farms around his AAF base(s) in England….no Rambos eating "…stuff that makes a billy goat puke" in those days  ;D
