Meal prep can be an issue …

Many experts will tell you to not use MREs (meals ready to eat) and simply make your own prep meals for cheap using ingredients and materials you can buy for pennys at the local Walmart (mostly beans and salt meats)

This is true for 99% of cases but their prep often requires storage and manufacturing methods not everyone can follow as not everyone has facility to store these items properly to avoid spoilage

In these cases a box of MREs is expensive but easier to conceal and store as it all they need to maintain for a few years (up to a decade depending on the type) is a cool dry space like an indoor closet or crawl space in a wall with minimum light exposure

For about 100-200 bucks you can buy a box or two of 30-50 MREs and have plenty of spare (if a bit bland and fiber filled) food that can be tossed into a pack or crate, loaded up and gone without the suspicion as it’s not industrial sized buckets or barrels of fuckin beans (I had to live off beans for a while so I may be a bit bias here)

They also can be eaten on the move so you don’t have to stop and prep a meal or heat anything and depending on the price some come with FRHs (flameless ration heaters) or can just be boiled in their pouch at a campfire in a few minutes while still maintaining mobility as you just need to boil one pouch and don’t need to unpack and pack up your resources

They also don’t require as much water as beans and salt meat tend to dry you out and dehydration can literally kill you in a bug out situation so you can save on having to sterilize water or carry your own (water is heavy so I dont recommend this)

What’s the best and worst MRE in your opinion? And is there anything you like to do to make them any more palatable?

I've gotten to talk about these a little.

Thoughts on the best.

Thoughts on the worst.

First: Find out what's good and what's bad and learn what's valuable for trading. If you learn to like unpopular options and avoid ever having to finesse a bad MRE, all the easier for you.

Won't pretend I have a magic bullet to make a bad meal better. Lot of people just make a habit of carrying hot sauce or something like that. It can help.

Weird trick that works sometimes is temperature. Some things with a strange flavor are easier cold, if you can take the texture. Sense of taste works worse cold.

Best medicine for a bad pull is just being hungry enough you don't care, though.

Chocolate Fuels Armies

“An army marches on its stomach.”* Military leaders have long recognized that it is difficult to arouse soldiers weakened by deprivation. Sadly, though, even a king of Israel could be foolish enough to ignore that and order his soldiers to fast before a battle. While logisticians rarely receive the accolades of their peers who serve directly in combat, they have always been vital members of…

New Paper Published - Will people notice differences in eyelid symmetry?

New paper out by Frank Preston et al., looking at when differences in eyelid symmetry can be detected.

Congratulations to Frank Preston for the publication of his Masters work on the perception of eyelid asymmetry in the journal “Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery”. Click the image below to read the paper (open access). Or read on for a high-level overview. This study was born out of a really simple question – “how big a difference between eyelids will people actually notice?”. And…

do you have a favorite MRE, or is that an oxymoron

You're not far off.

I've talked about them a couple times, might find what you're looking for starting over here.

Can't complain too much, given the logistics of feeding the UNSC are so big they're hard to hold in your head.

But I can complain a little, if invited.

Although many people believe that processed foods are unhealthy, they are actually quite healthy. There are ten processed foods listed that are healthy for you, including whole wheat bread, lentils, yogurt, dried fruit, frozen waffles, popcorn, hummus, soy milk, canned fish, and bean-based pasta. The next time you need a healthy snack or meal, reach for one of these processed foods. They're tasty and convenient.

shoutout to bad kissers btw. shoutout to inexperienced kisses where there's more teeth than lips and readjusting and shifting without end. shoutout to breathless little laughs because god you guys must look pretty silly right now, huh? shoutout to missing the lips by just a few centimeters and settling for an almost-kiss on the cheek.

shoutout to alternatives also. shoutout to gentle bites on the shoulder in place of kisses. shoutout to shapes traced on the skin in place of kisses. shoutout to a few extra 'i love you's in place of kisses. shoutout to tapping and caressing and every other little gesture that bleeds love in place of kisses.
