I'm sure Snake would like it :)

Raiden seems to have more of a love of rations, it's better than Rose's cooking. lol.

MrPlusses Too much maple -_- . I'd hate receiving this MRE, as I don't like maple-flavored ANYTHING. 'Still beats the veggie omelet, though.

ImWutzPopular I was going through withdrawals ;) .

Jan Thomas Thank you for watching and commenting Jan! It's amazing how much they tinkered with the Maple Sausage menus for the first few years. It really is a good one!

Jan Thomas It is now Menu #17, and in 2014 the sides were the Maple Muffin Top, Cheese Spread, Crackers, and Nuts and Raisins Mix. All else the same. Oddly, they put both of the "breakfast" meals in the B case, and none in the A case of meals. I personally think there should be four breakfasts, two in each case.

Samidella idella that's what i'm wondering would you actually feel full and satisfied ?

Coming from my experiences with MREs and having to eat them as my only option, as long as you don't eat the whole thing and you pick wisely (no vegetarian.... God no vegetarian) then these do the job pretty well tbh. My favorite is the meatball and marinara and I end up destroying a toilet afterwords but what do you expect. These aren't that bad.

They're certainly not empty calories, as they are manufactured to have a surplus of caloric value, whereas to provide the necessary caloric energy required for the amount of work done in the field. And I can tell you doing what you do as a military servicemember, especially infantrymen, you bust your ass doing your job, and MREs definitely provide essential fuel for your day.

Andy Flores i believe you misunderstood. What I was referring to is this particular MRE derives its calories mostly from sugar. In my opinion, this particular MRE is a poor excuse for a meal. Hence the "empty calories" from sugar. Empty calorie taking on the usual meaning, ie sugary junk food. Sugar might give you an initial rush of energy, but the sugar high is also inevitably met with a lethargy later on. Not particularly advantageous to a soldier in the field that might not get another timely meal until much later on in the day. If your opinion is that this is a "good" breakfast for our troops, so be it. I will disagree, the US gov. can provide a better breakfast option that this particular meal that is hearty and not sugar laden and filled with empty calories.

Japan have

Jaybird196 You know, that's one thing that I'm not really familiar with. Will have to do a little research and read up on the types (they do that with the instant coffee too sometimes).

gschultz9 Well, if ya' do, I hope you'll make a vid about it. Others might curious, as well :) .

+gschultz9 is it still good

Captain Obvious I had the same experience. The old brown bags (including the dreaded four fingers of death and chicken a la s**t...) seem awful now, but when they were new and your only alternative to starving or eating bugs and bark, they were pretty darn good. And they've only improved over the years!

search online;)

+RookieHplays Ebay.

+RookieHplays There's a camping store near me, You can buy them individually or by the case.

+BroImMcLovin what is the name of the store?

Juan Fuerte Yes I did. I will do my best!

You know, a biscuit would go GREAT with this! They did make a biscuit for a few years, but only included it with the Pork Sausage in Cream Gravy (and only for one year) and the Beef Brisket. For some unknown reason they discontinued the biscuit quite a few years back. Maybe there was some good reason (they didn't age as well as other bread products? they were prone to crumbling?), but I would really like to see them back in MREs again.

They do change them slightly from year to year. Maybe yours was from a different year?

gschultz9 yeah most likely

All jokes aside, idk how I stumbled upon the weird world of mre review videos, but I do enjoy them for some reason. I appreciate the effort of displaying professionalism and passion in such a specific topic. What I'm trying to say is do what you love I guess haha

+yummaliciouswater The only reason that doesn't seem like an obvious thing is because the sausage patty is ALREADY quite sweet with the maple flavoring!

I think the overabundance of sweetness in this one turns a lot of people off. I actually have a bit of a sweet tooth myself, so I have no complaints about it!

wooduu Yeah, like I mentioned in the video there could be some use for the syrup, but I just found it unnecessary. It's like they just threw it in because it was a "breakfast-y" thing to do. And it really does seem like a bad thing to have when you're in the field. It's pretty thin, so it runs all over the place and makes anything in its way sticky.
