Watch the Ebay stuff (and even some stores).
Alot of this was bought for Y2K, which means 98~99 production (hopefully) and unknown storage condition. They *might* be trashed already.
On the other hand, the charts show new production stored at 70 degrees (my home temp year round) are good for 100 months!

I just bought a couple of cases of MRE's from Ebay. One for the RV and the other for the SHTF cabinet.
Both have inspection dates of 9/03 and are the new production tan bags with heaters. I got one case each Menu A and Menu B.
Total with shipping to my doorstep was 53 bucks each.
DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT try to eat the black bean burrito vegetarian meal. This isn't suitable for consumption by any carbon based life life form.
