MRE Jalapeño Cheddar Cheese Spread – 24 Pack | These MRE Spreads Are NOT Military Surplus – Sourced Directly from USA Govt Contractor by Long Life Food Depot

First, the Cheese Jalapeno is just right - not too spicy, but enough to wake up taste buds. Really good flavor.The cheese is much better than the canned stuff that we used to squirt on crackers. Given the choice between this, the canned stuff or any of the Emergency Bars, I'll choose this every time.Put some on a Triscuit and family will not know this is a MRE-type food.It's obviously great for Preparedness, but also long trips, hiking/camping and related activities. A few tubes of this and some Pilot Bread and you are good to go!

Tastey, shelf stable. Liquid gold and a great priceOnly complaint it used to come in a 1.5oz packet but now it's just 1.0oz

I don't know what infernal (or divine) source crafted this concoction. I don't think mortal man was capable. Regardless... this stuff is much akin to a perfectly spiced Velveeta in texture, taste, and nutritional quality. It is a food-like substance that enhances (greatly) and cracker, bread, or macaroni (if you're feeling frisky). It is also very very salty.For me, being in the military, this brings back great memories of opening up the rare MRE and finding this gem inside. People would trade me three bags of M&M's/Skittles for this puppy, it's so good. Now, you can have the joy of this evil lil treat in the comfort of your own home, far from the echoes of gunfire and stink of dug latrines. If you're feeling frisky, take your family camping, dig your own latrine, and then bust out a bag of these cheez packets to relive the "good ol' days" all over again.

Just the same as cheese that we all loved and fought over in the issue MRE. AWESOME STUFF!

It appears to be old enough to require mixing in the pouch before using. Bright ted and green streaks in the base yellow from the ingredients. Very salty. Just like mama never made, because she loved me and wanted me to eat right. But I love the stuff. My wife calls it a plastic food product. But it is ready when I am, like Twinkies. Great in moderation and in a high sweat environment, like Texas. Salt in, salt out.

Handy for a quick snack

I got these finally, because a friend told me about it a couple years ago during the lockdowns.They said it was a great snack to have with crackers or just by itself. I had one package yesterday just as a standalone snack & the flavor was great. It wasn't too spicy, & it had a mild amount of heat so even if you are someone who doesn't like a lot of heat in your foods, this is a snack with just the right amount of heat which adds to the flavor.

One of the few things my husband missed from his time overseas. I found it and ordered it for him even though he thinks it was on the expensive side. Personally I don't like it because I can't handle spicy food at all. Its not very spicy though.Pro tip - Stick unopened package under armpit or in pants pocket to warm up the cheese and then mush it around in the package before opening and putting on desired serving vessel.
