[pct-l] MREs?

[Ryan Christensen]

I have had the mis-fortune of eating MRE's They are ridiculously heavy! It like carrying bricks in your pack. They also have WAY to much packaging you have to pack out afterwards. Definatly not the smartest choice for long distance backpacking. 

Hope that helps,

Greetings,

There was a CPA I hiked with for a few days in 2004 who carried MREs. He said they were delicious. Nitro-Park (http://www.nitro-pak.com/index.php?cPath=147_183) sells them for about $6.50 per meal (not including tax and shipping).

What do you think? Any experienced MRE aficionados out there?
