I don't know from Datrex but I had a pre-Korean War In-Flight Meal Box (sort of like K-rats) for lunch on a school trip back in 1982 -- roughly 30-35 years old. It was spaghetti with meat sauce, canned fruit cocktail, and I think had a candy bar. The kid next to me offered me his lunch if I'd just throw out the spaghetti after I opened the can. I think it would have been tastier if it had been warmed up; as it was, it was like bland Chef Boy-Ar-Dee. The fruit cocktail was excellent.Quote:

Even camped out a few nights in the cabin back in the day.[Flower]
Yeah I'll go check the expiration dates on mine. We should have a "nasty old ration taste testing party" one of these days. [Coffee]Quote:

I just keep a few MRE's in the car with the heaters and a canteen.

i have a few datrex and a bunch of cliff bars in the get home bag and two liters of water. The kids made me a winter survival kit for xmas several years ago. Basically a coffee can and waterproof matches to melt snow, plastic and tubing to make a solar still, and a space blanket.
