Camping Thursdays #388

Warning:

The cracker are dryer than the Sahara Desert. Tasty, but dry. Dry, dry, dry. Did I mention dry?

REALLY good with the cheese spread or the jelly. Do not attempt with the peanut butter without a full canteen of water handy.

The bread, however, is pure evil.

Looks kinda like bread.

Good luck spreading anything on it.

Tastes like you're shewing a salt lick.

The Oatmeal cookie bars? I wasn't kidding earlier when I told Puck I broke a tooth on one.

I liked guys like LH who dug the crackers. Good trade bait for the pound cake. Or Jalapeno Cheese.

Tried to keep the peanut butter to make pudding with creamers and cocoa powder.

LOL @ the coffee. What combat arms soldier has time to actually boil water to make it? In a pinch, just eat it dry with water. When you have been awake for 36 hours and it will be 12 more until the passage of lines... You do what ya gotta do.


MRE's now and MUCH better then when I was a baby soldier in the early 90's. LH, did you know ANYbody who actually ate the omelete with ham? <barf>

Omelet with ham?

Nope. That meal had one destination......the bottom of a cathole.

Coffee? Heat tab, a canteen cup and about 3 minutes.

HOWEVER.....

On guard duty at 0 dark thirty just a pinch between your cheek and gum. a tablespoon of coffee powder was good for another hour or two without falling asleep on the '60.
