Military MREs are subject to stricter requirements than civilian MREs. This is because these food rations are for operational and field use. For highly active individuals, MREs must meet their nutritional needs. Each military MRE is one self contained individual meal package which has about 1200 calories. Each MRE case has twelve different meals so that provides the service members some variety which in turn encourages that proper nutritional needs are met. Beyond nutritional requirements, military MREs meals are regulated for proper packaging. This is to make sure that the MRE meal contents won’t be spoiled with variable temperatures from high altitude drops or scorching desert temperatures. Therefore, the shelf life of MREs varies according to their storage conditions. In ideal conditions, MREs are said to be good for as long as eleven years. In high heat temperatures hitting 100 degrees Fahrenheit or 38 degrees the expected shelf life is nine months. For what is considered normal conditions, the shelf life is three and a half years at 81 degrees Fahrenheit or 27 degrees Celcius.
MREs have often been compared with freeze dried food as well since it is used by the government to provide for service members as well along with the disaster relief efforts. Freeze dried food pouches and cans do have the advantage of having longer shelf life than MRE meals. With the Mountain House freeze dried food, they purport to last up to 25 years in the right storage conditions. Freeze dried food is easy to consume as well. All you have to do is add water and it comes out tasting very much like the original menu. You can also find pretty extensive menus for Mountain House freeze dried food. As far as cost goes, freeze dried food costs less than an individual MRE meal.
