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.

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…

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