Meals Ready to Eat are both anticipated and dreaded – anticipated as you are hungry and dreaded as the composite items are either quite delicious or almost unpalatable crap.
Yum – ham diner with mustard sauce sounds good.
Bread in a bad does not sound so great – the admonishment to not eat it supports this theory, no?
The dreaded omelette with mushroom sauce. It’s quite dreadful.
Yum.
Just what we need in combat – a little treat from Baskin Robbins.
And of course a feed back form that one will be highly unlikely to have the time to fill out while in combat.

And quite agree about the dreadfulness of the omelets, which could of course be repurposed as maquettes for first-aid training. :/
