'''Military-Grade MRE''' is a packaged [[Food and drink|food]] item in ''[[The Long Dark]]''.<br />
<br />
The MRE is a rare and only found inside safes, prepper caches, locked lockers and outdoor sporting-type locations (such as Hunting Blinds). Usually only 1-3 may be found per region, based on [[Survival Mode]].<br />
<br />
A single MRE can restore a whopping 1750 calories, making it the most efficient calories per unit of any food item (although [[Energy Bar|Energy Bars]] and [[Salty Crackers]] have a higher calorie-to-weight ratio, at 30% and 41.6% more calorie-dense, respectively).<br />
<br />
"MRE" stands for "Meal Ready to Eat". As suggested by the name, MREs can be eaten as-is, without heating or special tools to prepare or consume them. In [[Episode 3]], individually wrapped [[Airline Food - Chicken|Airline Food]] meals feature similar stats to the MRE. These meals, like MREs, require no special tools to open and can be eaten uncooked (despite appearing like 'frozen dinners'). Whether these similarities cast a more favorable light on airline food or MREs is unclear.<br />
<br />
MRE have a very low chance of causing [[Food Poisoning]] and [[Decay]] much slower than many foods.<br />
<br />
== Trivia ==<br />
* In real life, MREs are used by militaries to feed troops during combat, and in real-world northern climates these packaged meals can last three to five years, depending on storage temperature.<br />
*The Canadian Military does supply its deployed members with MREs (Meal Ready to Eat), which are typically [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meal,_Ready-to-Eat American-made]. More often it uses IMP (Individual Meal Pack)--the exclusive field ration of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Individual_Meal_Pack Canadian Forces].<br />
