  • This is the rarest MRE I've ever had the pleasure of reviewing. The Food Packet Cold Weather is a transitional ration by AmeriQual, designed to replace the Ration Cold Weather (RCW), which served as the US Military's Arctic Climate Meal Ready to Eat. The Food Packet Cold Weather was produced in the early part of 2004 but was quickly replaced, in that same year, by the Meal Cold Weather (MCW), which remains in current service. It turns out this elusive field ration and the MCW are different in name alone.

    Can't believe they took a half oz of peanut butter away from American troops. 1 oz of peanut butter is just not enough

    Serving in the Army I dined regularly on LRRP rations. They were the best. This was back in the 80s and we didn’t have cold weather rations then.

    Not kidding when you say elusive. I never saw one when I was active duty. I thought they were a myth for the longest time.

    I have 1 of these rare gems. Mine is the spaghetti menu. I'll never open it, I'm glad I got it when I saw it. Atleast I know what is possibly in mine now. Thanks!

    I carry 2 GI canteen cups and stand the packets up in them as they’re reconstituting with the hot water.

    We had these when i was in Afghanistan in 2004-2005, we also test fast attack ration (full day ration 3 meals).
    The best one of these was the spaghetti meal.

    I feel like Ameriqual just didn't get the message that it was supposed to be called "meal cold weather".

    • @Zeddicus_Zorander
      @Zeddicus_Zorander 3 месяца назад

      That’s a good point. Figuring out what to call it.

      Those red packs from the 2000s didn't age well.

    Since when are these rare? sure they aren't as common as the standard meals, but these are far from rare. This is also the newer slimmed down version. The older (90's) Ration, Cold Weather was a 2 pouch per "meal" affair with a LOT more in them. Truly one of the best rations fielded by the US military.

    It’s amazing how peanut butter can be good for decades but nuts in cake go bad quickly

  • @anochron1
    @anochron1 3 месяца назад

    I wonder why these didn't come with the chemical cooking wafers and bag. Those would have been ideal for a cold weather pack.

    I love watching mre reviews, haven't gotten to see many of yours because you always sound as if you're yelling into the mic. Is it your mic or are you actually a yeller when ypu speak? Anyway the review looks great but I can't listen because of this 😅 just thought I'd let you know. Please take it as constructive criticism.

      The US Military uses Freeze-dried items in their cold weather rations to avoid issues with wet pack items freezing.
