CASE OF TEN(10) 24 HR Z-RATION MRE's 

The case of ten will be a random mix of menu's 1-12 (but only TEN MRE's total).  

We have sourced the components to custom package your very own 24 hr MRE which are comparable to the military First Strike Rations (FSR) in both calories and quantity of components. HOWEVER, we are providing you with a larger variety & selection of menus! These will be packaged in our own Red Mylar packaging and will include a new Flameless Ration Heater (which the original FSRs do not).

(All military grade MRE items are freshest possible with 1st inspection dates of 2023 - 2025!  All other general components are new & quality-sealed for freshness and flavor. )

'The First Strike Ration (FSR) is a compact, eat-on-the-move ration designed for use during initial periods of highly intense, highly mobile combat operations. The FSR is significantly reduced in weight & size and enhances consumer consumption, nutritional intake, and mobility.

The development of the FSR came from the fact that prior to deployment, soldiers would “field strip” their MREs. Field stripping involves removing all the excess MRE packaging and unwanted items – bags, boxes, heaters, extra spoons, accessory packs, etc. Creative field stripping could reduce 3 MREs – one day’s worth – down to the same size as a single MRE. While this practice reduced the soldier’s load by only packing the most critical MRE parts, it also led to increased waste and a reduced consumption of food. A single FSR, which is 24 hours worth of food, is approximately 50% the size and weight of three MREs. 

1 FSR = around 2,900 calories .....  3 MRE's = around 3,800 calories

As designed, all the components of an FSR can be eaten with little or no preparation. Pocket sandwiches, applesauce, energy bars, crackers, peanut butter, and beef jerky can be eaten as is while drinks can be mixed with water and consumed directly from their pouches.
