We have a local "odd-lot" outlet (Ocean State Job Lot) and they have MREs.
They ran a special 2/$1 for large meals, 3/$1 for small meals and desserts.
I bought about $5 worth to just for the hell of it. They had pasta alfredo,
chilli, peaches in syrup, etc. I'll admit I haven't tried them yet....but
they seem to be good enough to have a shelf life comparable to the life of
headgaskets on wasserboxers!
