>What are some things they should add to make these better.

Alcohol... Hell they put it in the Italian MRE why not ours. It would be nice to have a drink after a long day of killing wild jahooties

Copenhagen

>>33488224
Careful checking of them on eBay and gun shows, otherwise places like XMRE and Meal Kit Supply sell very fresh ones but they're more expensive.

>>33488324
I never knew that. Alcohol would make the field alot better, until you had to do a live fire range that is.

>>33487836
Jalap spread in every one of them so I dont have to ratfuck the whole box like veruca salt's daddy looking for the golden wonkabar ticket

Crackers that don't taste like processed cardboard

>Alcohol... Hell they put it in the Italian MRE

Is it a little squeeze pack of red wine? I'm imaging a compact version of the hamper in The Man from UNCLE remake, with Italian soldiers sitting down and eating pasta and drinking a small cup of wine.

>>33488224
These guys have current manufacture MREs.
Availability of different types of MRE goes up and down, just depends on what they can get their hands on at the time.
Sometimes have pretty decent sale prices too.

To tell the truth, I love the MRE's as they are, but water tablets, compressed towels, better gum, and the inclusion of a spork would go a long way

A few suggestions:

1. Pre-pasted toothbrush for later.
2. Flavor powder for canteen for later or now, hey now have a trade item! (dont mix with 1)
3. Moar mints.
4. Moar toilet paper.

Dehydrated beer.

Also, a stronger packet of coffee.

Nalgene bottles really aren't popular like they used to be

I read an interesting article and website where a guy had the suggestion of making the end of the mre spoon an adapter in a way so that that one could hook up a disposable razor that would come with the mre.

I thought that was a great idea since they always want soldiers to be fucking clean shaven and shit.

They should do the same though and include a clip on toothbrush head and maybe like some dehydrated mouthwash tablets that you can switch with water or some fancy shit.

Also i think caffeine pills and multivitamin.

Homemade alternatives are more endearing.

I've ended up with whey protein isolate and whey at hand. I'm thinking maybe I should be adding ricotta to figure out an optimal whey packed thing.

a friend of mine heard about the infamous MRe brickshits and asked why we didn't just have a little pouch of metamucil type shit to dissolve in water and give us more fiber.

and i had no response to that.

Why don't we?

>an apartif with your MRE
That's classy.

>>33488525
yea, I want to open an MRE and get a nose full of Sharpie smell. Great, it blew up and now I have to go hungry

>>33488920
Mre already have twizzlers, they are just very rare.

>>33495054
Because that's just a meme you fucking retard

what i think they should add:

small bottle of alcohol, whiskey, mead, wine, etc. only gets you slightly tipsy at most, so you can still fight reasonably well.

Small can of chopped up fruits. Strawberries would be best, but oranges and apples are fine too. This would be a can instead of dried fruits so it's fresher and tastes better.

cigarettes. obviously.


some sour patch kids.

more spices, more salt, more pepper, more hot sauce.

some dried meats.

>>33489742
I fucking love these. Anyone have more /k/ related educational comics?

The Germans did this with the tiger 1 tank so I'm pretty confident it was common practice.

>Tobacco products, which are known to decrease effective night vision dramatically should be included in field rations

No.

They could be improved by including caffeine gun in every one along with a bottle of tobacco.

Additionally, including some simple infographics or excerpts from FMs wouldn't go amiss. There's a lot of stuff most people in the army don't know (ESPECIALLY about their weapons) that they really have no excuse not to.

beer. never understood it's lack in american rations.

>>33487846
I have heard they paid serious thought for it, but in the end it was decided laxatives were a medical issue item, due to (very) possible dehydration.

>>33488379
Guys end up saving them and then getting shitfaced in a one go. There is no such thing in military as moderate drinking.

Metamucil. Mini cans of cope, that little packet mrs. dash in every MRE, Tabasco/Cholula/TPete/FRH in little bottles, multi vitamin, more sani-wipes to get your shitting hand clean enough to eat with.

Twizzlers are the most disgusting "candy" ever. They literally taste like flavored wax. Red vines are a million times better.

More of the main entree. MREs always leave me hungry.

Chili Mac and Texas Pete's was a god send when I could get it.
