Would not hesitate to buy again.
Received a beef roast with vegetables from seller Western Frontier. Very impressed with the beef roast as it was very tasty. Had noodles and small veggies inside. My meal also came with wheat snack bread (tasted fine, dry but very heavy and filling, chocolate peanut spread (hazelnut spread - really good), cherry-blueberry cobbler (amazing!!!) and a orange creamsicle cookie (also excellent). I wish I could buy the cherry-blueberry cobbler in the store, it was that good. There were pastry bits mixed in with the cobbler, it's not just fruit. Also included was a cocoa mix, a spoon and the usual coffee/creamer/wipes. The heater stayed hot for a good 15-20 min. Heated up the beef roast very well, actually burned my tongue. Had enough power left to heat the cobbler luke warm and did nothing to heat the cocoa mix which I had no problem drinking room temp. Cocoa wasn't great but average.
I have a very high metabolism and this entire meal did a decent job of filling me up. All in all I would, without a doubt, buy more of this brand of MRE.
My biggest problem with the single pack was that there was no date on the outside so I do not know how long ago it was made. I ate the meal an hour ago, and at the time of this review, I am still alive. So that's a good thing.
