    Hey guys, this may sound a bit weird, but I will be doing a video review (And a photo review if you guys would like one posted here) and comparison of a US MRE, UK 24hr Rat pack, OZ CR1M and a CF IMP, as well as any others I can get my hands on.

    Im trying to do this as cheaply as possible as I am a poor college student, and I am wondering if any of you guys that were in the military of your respective countries happen to have any rations lying around. If so, wanna send em my way?

    I would like any ration from any country, but I am looking for the 24hr pack and the CR1M the most because those are the hardest to find and the most expensive to ship over to the states


    thanks guys!

    Hmmmm....I wonder if there are any rules against importing these type foods to the US?

    For all our members, make sure it is legal in your country to export/import food items. That includes importing food items into the US.

    Thanks Arch!

    I dont think there are any rules for import into the US, I do know there are rules for Export in some countries.

    I dont want to get ANYBODY in trouble..that would be a real shame.

    Thanks guys!



    Andrew..I would be willing to try the Cold Weather MRE...but I wouldnt want to try the early MRE's in the dark brown bags. I wouldnt quite trust the self life, a little expired is one thing..but a ration that is almost as old as I am scares me a little Very Happy I would love to dissect one though!

    MG, I have heard the Russian rations are "interesting", to say the least. Laughing

    Here is a GREAT site I found a few years ago about military rations from several countries: http://www.mreinfo.com/

    Sadly, he doesn't offer any instructions on where to obtain them, but does provide full lists of included menus available in ech category of meal. The British rations have some very tasty-sounding options!
