That dinner was a couple of cups of chicken stuffing, a foil pack of chunk chicken and a instant chicken gravy pack. I like adding dried cranberries to the stuffing mix to kick it up a bit. Another shows the spam single slices thats added to a store bought mac and cheese mix. Another is gravel, a instant pack of beef gravy and some instant potato's from a larger box. You can do breakfast by dropping a couple of packs of instant oat meal, a couple of packs of coffee creamer and a handful of dried fruit. I carry a simple long handle Spork(Plastic from the dollar store) and spices are packed seperate You can write on the packs with a sharpie if you want to be sure about how to bring your stuff back to life.

HammerII	04/02/2013 11:59PM   I guess the question is are you looking for a "pure type" Mre where everything including a spoon and fork is included? I break down box's of store bought or dehydrated stuff for each meal. You can get a look at some in the picture. I was kidding the wife I was bringing the dog as mobil rations......
