Where do US soldiers fighting in Iraq live?
With the exception of some encampments, barracks life; some with air conditioning. Mess halls (called dining halls today or dining facilities). MRE's had replaced the canned "C" rations in the 1980's (MRE=Meal Ready to Eat).
What's a basic MRE Meal?
There are many variations, but each meal is designed to supply the user with a basic number of calories for one meal based on a 3-meal day. They may be eaten unheated, hence the acronym MRE (Meal Ready to Eat), and they are a big improvement over the C-rations of World War II, or the hardtack (North) or cornbread (South) diet of the American Civil War. The variety is impressive, and I am told that American soldiers often trade meals with each other for ones they like better. In addition, there is a beef-free MRE for Hindu soldiers, and a pork-free MRE for Muslim soldiers which were air-dropped to Iraqi refugees in order to sway them toward the West instead of the Hussein Regime. There is also a meat-free MRE for vegetarian soldiers. I have eaten MREs and judged the quality as good, especially when the alternative is nothing to eat. The meal is sealed in a plastic envelope and takes less than ten minutes to prepare and eat unheated, longer if heated. The main course is a meat or pasta-and-meat product, with fruit and cereal products sealed in smaller envelopes, a packet of Taster's Choice instant coffee, and about enough toilet paper to blow your nose with. The MRE is not perfect, and no substitute for a field kitchen, but it is still better than what American soldiers ate in the past, and a lot better than nothing under combat conditions.

Yes. Most MRE's have a shelf-life of 5 years at room temperature. That said, I've eaten MRE's that were several years past expiration date, and everything was fine except the bread - though edible it tasted odd.
What are the contents of an MRE?
Every MRE meal bag comes with an average of 1250 calories(13% protein, 36% fat, and 51% carbohydrates). It provides one third of of the Military Recommended Daily Allowance of vitamins and minerals determined essential by the Surgeon General of the United States. The way MRE's are consumed could be eaten cold, heated in hot water, or warmed using the supplied flameless MRE heating device. MRE's can even be warmed on the engine of a HMMVW. Happy to help you.
