you open it from the sides to be able to efficiently eat out of it while holding it in one hand and using your fork in the other. To basically make it easier to get the food out and the most possible . no waste, you have baby hands then yeah opening form the top would be smart my guy!~
The meals open lengthwise so they're easier to eat in the field. At least that's what I was told when I raised the same concern to every soldier I know. Idk why they would do that to the peanut butter or the jelly tho. That seems dumb.
They aren't that bad They aren't meant to be full of carbs so the soldiers have more energy and when you're in Afghanistan in the middle of the desert after several days of fighting this word be pretty fucking appetizing
If anyone's wondering, the reason it says to tear lengthwise is so you can use the package as a "bowl" in situations with no plates, such as being in the field.
Side opening mre packages are made so they can easily be eaten from the package... Would you like to dunk your whole arm into an mre package when behind enemy lines, no? I thought not. That's why it's a side opening package. It's for ease of access. It's a pouch you can sit down in your hand and eat it with convenience.
They have you open the larger packets on the side so you can easily eat out of them. You don’t have to dig super deep in a thin opening, instead you only have to dig shallow on a wide opening. Why they did it on the jam and peanut butter though, I have no clue
Sometimes we would eat at least 2 MRES a day and you will get sick of all 21 menus and the vegan ones can be nasty but you could trade or in my experience make a quick buck selling candy to your battle buddies.
Lol I forgot what channel I was watching and was enjoying a video about an MRE. Then suddenly everything starts getting grinded and I was like. Oh yeah
