Not sure how troops will respond to a meal of fruit and nut bars and a spinach quiche... Maybe instead of having someone like Wolfgang Puck designing these things, actually take an infantry man, send them to cooking school, and have them come up with some thing that troops actually want to eat!

Microwaved "Dried Rations"... So what? The meal is lighter, but you have to carry more water to hydrate it, or keep yourself hydrated while eating dried meals.
Has any of the Board of Experts" ever dealt with the constipation from eating dehydrated meals with insufficient water? 3-4 days your so stopped up it interferes with your agility and mobility. 5-7 days and your no longer effective. 10-12 days you'll give up the nuclear launch codes for some milk of magnesia and a healthy dump.

Yep, we already tried the LRRP freeze dried rations. Still have to have water to make the edible and a pints a pound the world around. The new MRE's aren't terrible, which was absolutely the case with first couple of runs. The Freeze Dried Beef and Pork patties were about as edible as a brick and the Chicken A La King looked like vomit and didn't taste much better.

I long figured that everyone dies of something. Mightest well be a big juicy triple cheeseburger and crispy fries, or a couple family-sized pizzas, or a gallon of homemade ice cream, well, you get the idea. It'll taste great checking out!!!
