MRE SHELF LIFE CHART

NOTE: Below 60° - not enough data yet collected, however, projections are the 130 month storage life will be extended.

NOTE: Time and Temperature have a cumulative effect. For example, storage at 100° for 11 months then removed to storage at 70° would lose one-half of the 70° storage life. Also avoid fluctuating temperatures, in and out of freezing levels. Due to the cumulative effect of time and temperature, a regular rotation of MRE's within 5 to 7 years is recommended.

As good as can be in the Civilian Market.
5.0 out of 5 stars

These M.R.E's Are not the genuine article and are inferior. However they are the best M.R.E's aside from the military grade ones. They do not come with a heater as stated in the description. They come with decaffeinated coffee which defeats the purpose of coffee. The clear thin packaging will reflect sunlight and serve as a beacon when you are trying to eat your lunch. The entree and side are the same as military but the accessory packet is far from acceptable. The do not include a hot beverage bag because they have no heater so you will be enjoying your decaf coffee cold. The only plus side is that they include pepper in the kit.

Not bad!
3.5 out of 5 stars

I bought a case of these MRE's and must say that the food was good. It taste good. It did me good while I was hunting, walking 10 miles over mountain's so I needed the energy the MRE's provided. They are stacked with energy. I did however have a problem out of the heater. The heater didn't work well at all. While on the mountains it was really cold and it took 30 minutes for it to begin to warm up. That was to long so we ate them cold, which wasn't bad, just wasn't what we wanted. Other from that everything was good. It would have been better if it came with a second entre like mashed potato's or something like that. If the MRE's had a good heater and a second entre it would be a 10.

Good Civilian MRE
3.5 out of 5 stars

These are not military issue MREs. However, they taste fine. There are 12 meals in each box and each MRE does not have as much food as the basic MREs that the military gives out. Also, the heater seems to be a little messy with the chemicals.

The MRE's being sold today are NASTY!Not much variety in menu and desserts are dispicable. You can't even make Ranger brownies out of the stuff. But the worst sharp stick in the eye part is that there is decaf coffee in them. What happened to the drink mix that you could use for rifle bore cleaner to. I want some MRE's that are better than you have for sale. Maybe you have to be politically correct with menu choices?
