When I was in Wyoming, Steve, my daughter's significant other, or as he says my future son-in-law, gave me an MRE to take camping. This was his birthday present to me a BBQ Veggie Patty MRE. Very sweet. I have been toting this around since July, so decided to try it out. The package is huge. The instructions say to eat 2 - 3 of these a day!! Now this was an interesting experience. I am used to Backpacker Pantry open and pour. For a while I was baffled by the instructions. Heaters? Ummm ... The MRE is a complete meal, including heat, one which I could not begin to consume at once, not to mention there were some foods I would not consume unless I was truly in dire circumstances. Grape drink? Iced tea? Very interesting stuff I must say. Comes with this very nifty heater that is activated with water. After eating my veggie patty I used the heater to warm my hands. Quite amusing really.
