FEMA food!

FEMA distributed rescue meals  during that damn storm Sandy. With some distance from initial cleanup and repair, I prepared a FEMA meal and have this little review. . .I don't hope an emergency like this on anyone but I can say these little anonymous pouches really shake a decent stick at providing comfort food. 

Each meal pouch comes with a breakfast and lunch/dinner meal AND dessert (Tootsie roll). Two innovations impress me, the food and the preparation. First, I wouldn't even write this but there is a  substantial vegetable lasagna with red beans. Second, the kit comes with a heating pouch, just add water and in 12 minutes, eat your hot meal with the included utensils, napkin, salt and pepper.
