Never gotten sick after eating MRE's, even after "ranger pudding" But yeah, you don't shit for 3 days, and when it comes, you'll definitely smell it coming.

Some of the C-Rations weren't too bad. Great pound cake.

Mmmmm ok.Open a tin of jam and crackers,spread the jam on the pound cake and spread the crackers on the nearest bush.Because of the heavy syrup that actually quenched your thirst in the bush,the best was the canned fruit especially fruit cocktail.The worst meal by far though was ham and lima beans,aka-ham and mother efrs,efrs and beans,etc.Geen eggs and ham,the tin of cheese that looked and tasted like ultra-modern plastic,the "eat and die" fudgebrick and the other offerings were serious losers!I have to tell you Eric,you're the only person I've ever heard say that c-rations were not that bad let alone any good.When I was in they were universally loathed!- Lloyd

Call me crazy but I actually liked the MRE's we had. Used to eat 'em dry.

I liked them too.

After reading all of this, I have to wonder if they are supposed to constipate you by design. I've never been in the armed forces, but I imagine it would be highly inconvenient to have to snap a yam in the middle of a real field-combat situation.

"snap a yam"

I've never heard that before but I just laughed out loud at work.
