People saying they had a hundred or two MREs after everything was over.
Oh and the story that the current gang turf war in Meridian, MS is from the gang members who bailed out of NO and decided Meridian was a good place to set up shop, so they stayed.

We had a dozen boxes with 12 meals per box I believe. They truck came down our street and asked if we wanted or needed any. I said sure and they tossed out 12 boxes. Guy said most people werent taking them. I didnt ask for 12. I think he was just trying to get rid of em.

We had a few dozen of them after Gustav. I ate a few of them before I realized they were like 4k calories

See, that's how I know you're lying. Nobody would voluntarily stay in Meridian.

I drove around collecting the boxes of "war fighter" mres that people were putting at the end of their driveway.
6 months later I was getting 100 bucks a box on ar15 forum.

We had so many MRE boxes that we made a latrine out of them on top of the parking garage. Floor and walls made completely out of MRE boxes.
If you are ever an emergency operations commander, finding port-o-lets should be very high on the list.
Oprah left a box of donuts on my chest while I was sleeping on a cot in the parking garage.
