My knowledge is a little newer

Gotta agree with Miles, I've tried them and returned to off the shelf canned goods. As an aging diabetic I find the carb count too high, as well as the salt; I prefer little green cans of "C" rations, but then I'm an old fart. Also have tried some freeze dried stuff, decent taste, easy to pack but you need a water source and water is heavy.
If you're really interested in commercial MREs' have a look at The EpiCenter down in Orygun.
