I know that MREs are known for being disgusting, but I actually like them.

Not who you asked but I'm pretty partial to the chili Mac, especially if you got some hot sauce to drizzle on it! It's the one I look for first whenever we're given some to choose from!

They used to come with little Tabasco bottles in them. I had little bottles of Tabasco all over the kitchen for a while after leaving the Army. Do they not come with that anymore?

I can picture that tiny Tabasco bottle clearly 😂. It was a godsend in basic training (for any MRE that came with them) I'm not sure if I had a new iteration of the chili mac or what, but when I was quarantined in 2020, mine came with crushed red pepper instead. I know for a fact I've had it with the Tabasco too though.

Those little bottles were awesome!

They aren't bad. They do fuck up my digestive tract something awful. I prefer the officer's mess.

Our drill sergeants taught us that you have to use the Kool-Aid mix, as that has something in it to counteract the digestive issues. Idk if that's true or not, but I never had digestive issues because of an MRE, and I always used the Kool-Aid packet.

We didn't really go over MREs in Navy boot. I doubt the RDCs would have bothered telling us that tidbit of information, since there's really no reason a sailor should be eating those things. I just got curious and bought a few from the Army/Navy surplus stores. I never drank more than a taste or two of the Kool aid packet. Those things aren't exactly tasty, kinda medicinal aftertaste in my opinion.

Maybe it's true then.
