What is an MRE?

MRE (Meal Ready to Eat) is a fully packaged meal originally developed for military use but now widely used by outdoor enthusiasts, campers, and preppers. Unlike freeze-dried food, MREs require no water or preparation—they can be eaten directly from the pack or heated for a better taste.

Why Choose MREs?

• Ready to eat: No cooking required—eat them cold or heat them in minutes.
• Long shelf life: Ideal for emergency preparedness—many remain edible for years beyond the expiration date.
• Nutritious and filling: Each MRE provides a balanced mix of energy and nutrients for demanding situations.
• Compact and lightweight: Takes up little space and weighs less than traditional canned food—perfect for outdoor trips and long-term storage.

How to Prepare an MRE

• Eat cold: Simply open the pouch and eat—great for emergencies or when you're on the go.
• Heat in hot water: Place the MRE pouch in warm water or heat the contents directly in a pot or on a stove.
• Use an MRE heater: A chemical heater activates with water and warms the meal in minutes without fire or a stove—ideal for field use and prepping.

Storage Tips for MREs

To prevent damage to the packaging, pack MREs securely when hiking and store them in a rodent-proof container for long-term storage. A military-grade ammo box is an excellent choice to protect against pests and moisture. Store in a cool, dark place for maximum shelf life.
