Meal, Ready-to-Eat
Meal, Ready-to-Eat ('MRE).

Meal, Ready-to-Eat (MRE) es una comida preparada, lista para comer y en un empaque pequeño y ligero, denominado pouch retortable, producida para las fuerzas armadas de los Estados Unidos de América, especialmente para los soldados en batalla, donde no existen cocinas disponibles. Reemplazaron a las Raciones C a principio de la década de 1980.

Las MRE fueron adoptadas como la nueva Ración de combate por el Departamento de Defensa de los Estados Unidos en 1975. Las pruebas de producción a gran escala comenzaron en 1978 y las primeras entregas (la MRE I) en 1981. También son usadas en varios ejércitos del mundo.
