The first MRE meals were established during the Revolutionary War consisted of enough food to feed a man for one day, mostly beef, peas, and rice. During World War #1, canned meats were replaced with preserved meats (salted or dried). MRE’s saw their big improvement during the Vietnam War. The Military MRE added the MRE heater to warm the MRE food and this became popular with the general public.
In 1963, the Department of Defense began developing the MRE "Meal, Ready to Eat", - MREs - a military MRE meal that would rely on modern food preparation and packaging technology to create a lighter replacement for the canned Meal. In 1975, work began on a dehydrated meal stored in a plastic retort pouch (the current MRE). It went into special issue starting in 1981 and standard issue in 1986, using a limited menu of 12 MRE meals. The MRE has been in continual development since 1993. In an array of field tests and surveys, service members requested more entree options and larger serving sizes. The DOD looked at emergency essentials like storable foods as a key to winning. Fast forward to 2012 – The DOD now views Military MRE meals and freeze dried foods like the Mountain House freeze dried foods, Wise freeze dried foods, and Survival Cave canned foods.
The MRE is great for fast ready to eat survival meals. But, today options for survival food, backpacking food, emergency essentials, long term food storage items make the MRE a second option to freeze dried foods.
