for one that was u said 86-89? thats over ten years ago. things have changed ..two.  ive found the new mre's atleast 4 times for sale.

Yeah I know, almost twenty :o. , times have changed, I liked the old ones, no matter what you always got cheese, peanut butter, and crackers included in the pack. The new ones I can find no problem, the newer mouse trap just ain't the same.
I have used the newer version on overnighters x2, long trips I think they're  too much bulk. The older version that I so fondly remember were really bulky.
