Would you buy MRE's?

I was in the National Guard for 6 years so I've had my share of MREs. Most of them really aren't that bad.
The Chili Mac and Ravioli ones are actually pretty damn good. Those are as good, if not better, than any of the similar canned stuff at the grocery store. Other ones like the Thai Chicken are shockingly awful.
The thing is, they listen to people. When everyone hates a specific one, they stop making it and replace it with something else that's hopefully better. I haven't seen a Thai Chicken one in quite a while.

I usually keep a few knocking around, (get given them from people in the army) and take 'em when I go kayaking etc, in case ze poop hits the fan, as they're fairly compact.
Have tried a couple, and I wouldn't eat them by choice, but then again, they aren't exactly inedible.
