Turns out these were packed 5 years ago, so the heater not working is not surprising.
We bought a Christmas in July deal that gave a case of meals for $29.95 for 12 meals when you bought 2 cases. each case has 6 different menus that give you an entree, a heater, a smoothie and crackers with spread.
The meals mostly contain meat and are familiar to American palates.
These are not MREs, but provide around 1000 kcal per meal.
At $3 a meal, these are a well priced backup food for times when power might be out or traveling to a store might not be possible.

I miss when the MREs came with a small bottle of Tabasco sauce.

@TwoRiders 18 дней назад

Thanks for watching I agree, the liquid Tabasco has a nice vinegar kick that the powdered spice mix doesn't

Thanks for watching. Post another reply when you have sampled one or two.

Remember C Rations? They were the best,

@TwoRiders 20 дней назад

Thanks for watching. As a kid camping out in the summer, we had some C rations from neighbors serving at the nearby army base. They were pretty old and I remember them having matches and cigarettes in the box. This was in the 60's.

@a.mathis9454 18 дней назад

As a Boy Scout, we were given C rations once and remembered that the scout master came around and took the 3 cigarette pack that was included in the ration. 😂

The heater won't work but it's a lot cheaper to buy a ton of food cheaper then the mre's

@TwoRiders 11 дней назад

Thanks for watching. It is cheap when you buy 2 cases. I eaten 2 different menus and they are filling. I'd like to see more variety for the cracker spread, maybe jelly. I get it that sunflower butter has some protein and avoids the peanut allergy thing, but it gets monotonous.

I bought these similar price from another site. Same issue, FRHs didn't work at all in any of the mres. I was going to take them backpacking and glad I tried a couple before I did as I would have been upset to find it didn't heat up like it should somewhere there wasn't a good way to heat them up. The meals were overly sweet but did taste good, which I guess they had to make up for the less sodium. Supposedly there are two different flavor smoothies, but I only got the apple banana and not the grape sweet potato in all the mres in my box. I was hoping to have tried the grape sweet potato. The smoothie was super sweet, so I think this was a pretty disappointing MRE in my opinion. Yes the price is cheaper, but a lot of negatives in my opinion. I guess for a less expensive MRE, what can one expect? Thanks for showing the reviews of these.

@TwoRiders 18 дней назад

Thanks for watching. The potato smoothie is really sweet with a raisin flavor. The mains are filling. I look at these as something to keep in the car or to have in a total power loss scenario. If I'm hunting or hiking, I'm going to pack a MRE. Toilet paper is always good to have along.

If the heater doesn't work, then pour the salt into the water and shake it up. This will allow the heater to work.

@kenberger1814 21 день назад

I got four a few months ago. You never know,

@TwoRiders 20 дней назад

Thanks for watching. The meals aren't as complete as MREs and I miss the coffee. They do fill a spot in an emergency pantry and I have felt full after eating them. Too bad the heaters haven't work.

@DailyDriverGarage 12 дней назад

I BOUGHT A CASE... BETTER THAN NOTHING, BUT THEY ARE ALREADY ALMOST 5 YEARS OLD...I WOULDN'T REALISTICALLY RUN AN MRE 7 YEARS PAST PRODUCTION DATE..AND NOT VERY MUCH FOOD... THE PROTEIN BAR IS THE BEST PART.. IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A QUICK MEAL WHILE HUNTING OR FISHING THIS YEAR... I WOULD GRAB A CASE, BUT NOT TO STOCKPILE... SURVIVOR DAILY RATION CASE IS A MUCH BETTER OPTION

@TwoRiders 11 дней назад

Thanks for commenting. I picked up 2 cases to get the deal price. $3 for 1000kcal of ready to eat food seems OK, but the manufacture date was older than expected. The smoothie is a little odd compared to MRE beverages, but it is emergency food. I'll probably work through about 2 meals a month and replace them with more current date MRE's.

@DailyDriverGarage 11 дней назад

@@TwoRiders I ATE ONE THIS MORNING ACTUALLY..LOL.. THE CHILI WASNT BAD... UNFORTUNATELY THESE ACTUALLY DONT CONTAIN THE PROTEIN BAR... PROTEIN BAR IS IN THE NEW SURVIVOR DAILY RATION.. IM NOT A FAN OUT THE SWEET POTATO GRAPE SMOOTHIE... WAAAYY TO MUCH SUGAR

Should get some packs of hot hands in case the heater doesn't work

@TwoRiders 22 дня назад

Thanks for watching. I've used handwarmers before and they didn't seem hot enough to esrm a ration. Have you had success doing that?

@adamgenard3188 Месяц назад

I've been seeing these 2019 packdate A-Packs from several sellers online (like you said, probably FEMA surplus or something). After watching your review I'm probably gonna pick up a case or 2. Even with their shortcomings it's hard to argue with $3/meal.

@TwoRiders Месяц назад

Thanks for watching. I wish it included coffee, but $3 is $3. The main was good. I like sunflower butter so that was fine. Wished the frh was alive.

@mrs2691 23 дня назад

I don’t know if those are truly surplus or just cycling old inventory. The ready meals are sold to the general public. I do know that FEMA now has its own emergency ration called the survivor daily ration.

@jonleone777 18 дней назад

Be careful using the heating pack indoors. They create hydrogen gas shich can displace oxygen and they stink as well.

@TwoRiders 18 дней назад

Thanks for watching. I've used the frh in pretty well ventilated areas on heat resistant surfaces. The smell doesn't really bother me

Where did you find theae meals? Ive never seen a deal like this.

@TwoRiders 28 дней назад

Thanks for the question. Army Navy Outdoors had the deal last month. 2 cases weigh 25 pounds and shipping was about $11, not bad. I'll be posting another review on the pork menu.

@mtarkowski1006 27 дней назад

@@TwoRiders Thank you. I look forward to it.

@tboat4015 27 дней назад

Amazon also has them.

@TwoRiders 27 дней назад

Thanks for checking in. They are here and there. The reason i bought some was because they were not strictly vegetarian. Between hurricane season and hunting season these are good to have on hand @tboat4015

@mtarkowski1006 27 дней назад

@TwoRiders The price was really good and what really caught my attention was the sweet and sour chicken and pork with gravy and rice. I reached out to Army Navy but theu said theu can't ship meat to Canada. Typical communist country.

Reduced sodium = reduced flavor

Thanks for watching. They flavor packet on the second video kicked up the heat.

Not true military mre’s

@TwoRiders 10 дней назад

Thanks. I said at the beginning that it is an emergency, 1000kcal. Basically a bargain case for folks who want something stable and readily available.
