>>1979145i make my own because actual military MREs are designed to prevent you from pooping, to keep you awake and to keep you alive. they're not designed to keep you happy or healthy.
All an MRE is designed to do is to make it so you dont starve when on a 12 or 18 hour patrol until you get back to base camp, can have a hot shower and hit the mess for a hot meal prepared by army chefs.
