Those K rations were not that bad. We used them for mountain climbing in Korea 72. The MREs they use now taste awful. Had some of them after Katrina.
what ever you call it, $hit on a shingle-it still tastes bad.

Only thing we ever called MRE's were Meals Ready to Explode. The old ones were horrible, and believe it not, they have actually gotten better....but not by much!!

yes all of you folks near the area of concern take care and may God be with you. :)
iluvendo.. nice meat and tator dinner. ;)
I should have taken a pic of the meal my wife just fixed!! I know, I know, she doesn't normally cook but she found an easy recipe (hope she doesn't read this...lol) and it was great!
White rice - 5 minute (sorry endo but NO rice maker here!!!)
Chicken (boneless breast) in mushroom gravy sauce
corn - heated with butter and seasonings
asparagus - canned but the kiddies like it
peaches - canned in heavy syrup (we all like it...lol)
IT was good and I'm stuffed.. time for a nap... lol.

I wasn't feeling real frisky for cooking last night.
Hamburger helper (cheesy lasagna) and mashed potatoes with some Texas Toast. Meh...it filled the void. :)

One of my kids favorites (mine too its so easy...)is Hamburg helper stroganoff flavor, add a can of peas to the mix when it starts to boil and it looks like some actual thought and effort was put into the meal!

In my bachelor days there was a lot of hamburger helper and pizza rolls devoured. It's quick, easy, and as long as you get the hamburger helper brand, they are actually pretty tasty. The el-cheapo ones are not very good though, at least not that i've seen.
I'll take Hamburger Helper over Chef Boyardee (sp?) any day.

As you can see I still have power and the winds are going to pick up. 32,000 homes w/o power where I am. Hoping for the best but so far BR has dodged the bullet and NO also.

One of my cousins lives in Abbeville, south west of Lafyette. So far, we haven't heard from him. HIm and his wife sent their kids and grandkids out of town, but they decided to wait it out thru the storm.

On the contrary it's pretty good really. :)
I like the Four cheese, stroganoff, lasagna isn't to bad, BUT if you use the tuna ones try them with canned chicken meat and see what you think... :) Pretty danged good if you ask me. :D btw I normally double the chicken and use at least 1.5 lbs of ground hamburger. ;)
