    I always heard it was "Meal Refused by Ethiopians"  :-)

    Actually though, I have found some of the MRE's to be pretty good, esp.
once you use the Tabasco sauce included.    Much better than the old canned
c-rats.

    You can make a decent cookie-like object by mixing the contents of the
hot chocolate and creamer packets together, and then setting the package on
fire.

    I'm getting this sudden image of Marzipan MRE packages......

I doubt they would get a clue even if Blue and Steve themselves came in and
pummeled them mercilessly with a sledgehammer with Blue's pawprint stamped
on the business end.
