We had C-rats whan I was in and they weren't too bad. Whan Katrina hit the Army came by and dumped off a bunch of MRE's at a dump site I was working. There was no food around or electricity so we ate them 3 times a day. You could heat them up on the dozer with the little heater in them and not have too bad a meal. When I found out how many calories were in them I quit eating them. Obviously for young soldiers, not old equipment operators. I don't remember applesauce being in them.
