As my temporary bachelorhood draws to a close I thought it only fitting that I dine effortlessly this evening.
Tonight’s
fare featured a Meal-Ready-To-Eat (MRE) from the bunker. A thirteen-year-old MRE too.
Cheese tortellini in marinara sauce beat-out BBQ sauce w/ chicken, black
beans and potatoes. Applesauce and oatmeal cookie for dessert. The nut
mix with raisins had gone all rancid. Nuts cannot survive thirteen years
- even in a bunker. The rest survived nicely in its retort packaging.
The tortellini was excellent. Subtle spiciness with large chunks of tomato in the sauce.
The
apple sauce (featuring small chunks of apple) was excellent too. And
the cookie was crunchy with a hint of cinnamon, nutmeg and a dusting of
sugar. Not the least bit stale.
The meal included reading material (the story of applesauce) and the wet wipe (still wet) with a refreshing lemony scent.
Not bad chow considering it’s considerably older than my grandson....
