Honestly the first thing I thought when I saw that is:

"Why is our armed forces getting Cocaine in their MRE's?"

It's been some years, but I remember well the dry-tech rations from my time as a Private in the Norwegian Army. They were actually quite tasty! Better than the older rations, that still were around then.
I remember people from different Companies talking about trading rations with British soldiers during NATO exercises, apparently they liked ours better. Can't verify this with personal experience though, since my squad was in hiding through the whole exercise

Can anyone compare the Norwegian/Swedish(new to me) rations with other nations? Would be interesting to know

Is it just me, or is there more sugar in the American rations?

Nice thread!
