    Don't know if anybody said it already, but they cut sodium in the MCW's due to the fact that it is harder to stay hydrated in cold weather. So many calories and such are burned when you are trying to stay warm that you need extra water. Extra salt can mess the balance up. Glad you enjoyed the meal! Fun to watch, as always. Good idea on the drink mixes, Ace! Stay well guys!

    We were sent several of pallets of Cold Weather MREs right after the invasion of Iraq. I traded other guys for all of these I could. The main meals actually had a very good flavor more like civilian back packers meals. I'd usually add water then set it out in the sun. After about 20 or 30 mins they it was good to go.

    I also spent considerable time onboard the LPH2 Iwo Jima as well on a Med Float and then during Desert Shield/Storm I was onboard the LHA 2 Saipan that and the Good Ole LST 1193 Fairfax County on Med Floats. It amazes me how far MRE have come compared to the regurgitated meals they gave us back then... Chicken Ala King and the Freeze Dried Pork Patty or the nasty Omelet and Ham or the Potatoes Au Rotten. I think I spent 90% of my meals out in the bush/sand either eating cheese and crackers or peanut butter crackers or the combination of the two. Or making Cocoa Puffs with Cocoa Powder and the Crackers. I loved it when they started introducing the Tabasco bottles 1990 in the meals, Glad to see they started putting them back in meals again. I think 2011 was when they stopped Semper FI !!!

    You sure that’s not 2011? Those little bottles were phased out back in 2011. They made a comeback in 2019. But, it was short lived.

    • @MeAncient
      @MeAncient  2 года назад

      You know, I'm going by what a website for MRE history said. You may be right, but the website indicated the 2011 would have had the #1 and #2 meals switched as far as menu is concerned. TFW, Ross.

  • @ithoughtyouknew7036
    @ithoughtyouknew7036 2 года назад

    Cold weather MREs have a lot of liquids and low sodium to help prevent dehydration. If a soldier did get salt it probably could be a bartering item. I could see why they add the Tabasco to add flavor since there is a no salt option.
