Do MREs cause constipation and other health problems?

No, and a lot of what's said about MREs is urban legend (such as the gum being formulated to plug up the old rectum). Health problems... if you eat them habitually, they'll fatten you up rather quickly. MREs are intended to be eaten in a heavy work environment, and they contain some 2000 or calories.

Do MREs make you poop?

Interesting question. Having experienced MREs when they were first introduced, I would have to say no. Quite the opposite actually. Those who eat MREs on a regular basis learn quickly to get bread and butter, a lot of butter from the field kitchen, and chase a few slices with a lot of butter with the MRE contents. I suggest keeping a couple bottles of magnesium citrate back at garrison for when you return from the field.

Do soldiers entering the armed forces in 2010 get chocolate?

I suppose they would if they bought it on their own. When they eat MREs, some of the meals have items in them which contain chocolate. If you're asking whether soldiers are receiving chocolate for enlisting, I'll first tell you the question is completely asinine, and then that the answer is no.


How long will meals ready to eat last?

Meals Ready to Eat (MREs) can have a shelf life of 12 to 24 months when stored in optimal conditions, such as a cool, dry place. However, if kept in ideal conditions, some MREs can last up to five years or more. It's important to check the packaging for a production date and consume them before the recommended expiration date for best quality. Always inspect MREs for any signs of damage or spoilage before consumption.
