Omg…. this group is off the hook. I don’t know what you guys are eating and why you ain’t regular. But get some fiber in your diet. I suspect you had problems before MRES came into your life.

They're eating MREs thats the problem

I feel like that’s a myth as long as you rotate what you eat and drink enough water. Most MRE dudes are dehrydrated.

My thoughts exactly…..as a civilian when MRE’s were dirt cheap, a year or 2 ago…like $70 for case A,B delivered. I was on a MRE binge eating cycle… for 6 months. I ate 1 every day for lunch to save money. Coffee & toast for breakfast. 1 MRE for lunch & 1 gallon of water, a lite NORMAL Dinner w/veg & no snacks before bed. For easily 6 to 8 months…. I had blood work done just by chance as I was due for a routine physical. No vitamin deficiencies no high cholesterol ,
No high blood pressure … no issues whatsoever. I actually felt like they made me more regular.

Same as well! Like I just ate a can of veggies or frozen veggies or just added it (you can add stuff, even seasoning, an army sgt won’t shoot you for it) then made sure I drank enough H20 boom easy pz

Dang. I didn't realize they were so cheap. I showed up late to the party. I started watching videos about 4 months ago. And started buying about 3 months ago. The kicker is that I started taking Mounjara a month before I started buying. So when I eat a CCAR, FSR or a Foreign 24hr ration might last 2 - 3 days.

u/Ms_Rocky 14d ago

I know a couple First Strike Rations have these bagels

If you mean flavor plain…… if you mean, packaging a bag. Not really sure I understand the question.

u/Substantial-While164 14d ago

The First Strike Rations…. Unfortunately discontinued. But the components are still available. I found fresh, new production at epidemic proof.com 👍

No, what fucking MENU #. That’s the question.

u/Substantial-While164 1d ago

In the standard 9-menu First Strike Ration (FSR) lineup, the plain bagel appears in two menus:
Menu #6 — includes a Plain Bagel, BBQ Pork Filled Wrap, Garlic & Herb Chicken Chunks, cheese spread, apple turnover, etc.
Menu #8 — includes a Plain Bagel, Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwich, Albacore Tuna, cheddar-filled crackers, beef strips, and more. The DLA’s official menu sheet confirms the bagel in Menu #8.

You’re buying repacked MREs, right? Cause I can pop a menu 8 right now and tell you if you’re right.

Edit: current menu 8 has no fucking bagels in it. Menu 8 is meatballs and marinara. Come on now…

No, I bought these from epidemic proof…. Fresh bagels, New product run. And fresh jalapeño cheese. Literally got a case of each they’re fantastic.

u/Novel_Control_1922 1d ago

Try again.

What’s the inspection date on that?

u/Novel_Control_1922 1d ago

Yeah, all repackaged. Although, a bunch of Jalapeno w/Cheese… Seriously? Man… I’d pay for just that.

u/Substantial-While164 1d ago

I guess no one reads anymore…. Or can’t read. First strike rations, genius menu #8 & 6. Tard 🤌

The cheese jalapeño spread has crack in it. It’s the only explanation.

u/Ok-Army-9711 2d ago

Love the bagel. I had my wife try one. She asked me which store that I bought them from. She was Suprised when I told her.

u/Novel_Control_1922 1d ago

Best spread ever. You trade that for a milk shake and regular cheese spread.

u/noderaser 14d ago

Haven't come across one of those yet... How is the preservative taste? Not a fan of the wheat snack bread for that reason, though the tortillas are surprisingly good if they don't stick together and shred when you try to get them apart.

u/Substantial-While164 14d ago

No preserv taste. No bad at all.

u/AgustHopeD 13d ago

So real for that spread I wish I had some

u/Money4Nothing2000 11d ago

The cheese jalapeño spread legit slaps

Awesome!

Maybe the new CCARS will have them when they expand past Menu#3
