My experience with MRE's is limited but the last time I ate one it 
seemed to leave a lot of packaging after the fact.  Don't they each 
include a spoon, napkin, etc.?  Kind of wasteful and that's just 
more stuff to pack out.  Plus, at $3-$6/meal, that's not that cheap 
considering the length of a thru.  FWIW,
