  • The Meal Halal Individual is issued to US service members on strict religious diet, and is also used on joint operations with Muslim practicing soldiers from allied countries. This introduction is with one of the more exotic menus in the case of 12 - Saag Chole with Lamb. It's dessert is a decadent butterscotch pudding in a generous 4 ounce serving, via thermostabilized retort. The components are quite versatile and could be mixed up in a range of different ways. This can really help with overall menu fatigue and monotony.

    re "Not enough vanilla." FYI, while vanilla beans are halal, vanilla extract is processed with alcohol, which makes the extract not-halal. There are some forms of vanilla that are processed with alcohol substitutes that can be used in halal cooking.

    • @rorymaclean6848
      @rorymaclean6848 4 года назад +55

      at a guess: it is the spices. Plenty of continental or otherwise standard "good ol american food" can be prepared in a fairly bland manner. Many households shy away from stronger flavors, so when the MRE has less spice it isn't really a complaint... but as time goes on most americans are becoming more accustomed to food with more spice and start missing it. Various foods that are more 'ethnic' get somewhat special treatment because even if they aren't 100% accurate, they still need a certain level of spices to be recognizable as a given dish.
