Title: Which/where MREs to get
Post by: MHWASH on March 17, 2017, 07:52:46 AM: I've read a few of the MRE vs Mountain House threads, so I realize MREs are not the best. But, I'm been invited on a fly in trip and was told to get a case of MREs, so that's what I'm going with. Are there different brands, or is everything just military surplus? I will order online.

They contain less and arent that good, not that military mres are any 5 star meal. I personally would look for military surplus. There should be 2 different cases available. Pick the batch of meals you like best. Some are pretty horrible, but they change them every now and then so not sure what is still around.
