Good enough for the soldiers, good enough for dinner (I guess?)

Last night for a change and since it had to be done sooner or later, Marni and I decided that we should try a few of the MRE's (Meals Ready to Eat)that she received in the mail as part of her 72 hour / preparedness kit. She needed to try them out anyway before she can demonstrate them and/or recommend them personally so we got to sample a few of them along with the kids and were pleasantly surprised that they tasted good. The self-heating pouch was especially neat to try out and did a good job of warming the meat tortellini that was one of our meals. All-in-all it was a neat experience and a very different "dinner time" at our house.
