What is your favorite and most hated MRE?

Best = beef stew, Worst = veggie-omelet

Agreed; the cheese and crackers/wheat bread are the only thing I really care about in the MREs. Pound cakes are a close runner-up, as is the potato-bacon soup and cornbread stuffing. :)

I prefer the vegetarian ones personally. True story - I would keep a box of just the omlets in my office. After a courts-martial, if the prisoner didn't have enough time to eat prior to court - he would leave in cuffs, shackles and an omlet MRE in his hands for the ride to jail.

Chicken Pesto Pasta hands down

The worst I have ever had was the Beef Frankfurters and the country cpt's chicken. Favorites are the BBQ Rib and the Veggie burger.

Out of the MRE's I have had, the only one I would really call my favorite is rather new and is the Ratatouille MRE. And that's an easy decision for me.

I normally loved Pork Chow Mein.  Until one dark night on the 82nd Signal BN parade field, I put a big spoonful into my mouth to discover some strange mystery meat so repulsive, I jumped up from my chair, out of the FES and spit it all over the grass.  I don't think I've ever eaten another PCM after that.

The Omelet was by FAR the worst!  However I still miss my favorite MRE:  Jamaican Pork Chop!  I only saw it when I was in Iraq and grabbed it whenever I could.  Never saw it since.  

I agree with the others the beef and pork patties were bad, only good in those was usually they had more candy in the MRE. Don't remember the omelet like that, back when I was in the ham slice spaghetti and OK that is the only two I remember being very good. I will say the ablity to heat them up helped a lot.
