Better than Taco Bell!

We have a food pantry at church for anyone that comes and ask for food. The people of Central Community drop off food weekly to help people in need. This week we got a few boxes of MRE’S. If you have ever severed in the Military, been in Iraq or Afghanistan or now to Central Community food pantry you know that a MRE’S is Meals Ready to Eat. I don’t know what war they are from --World War 2, Korean War, Vietnam, Gulf War or one of the many that going on today.
The picture below is a Black Bean and rice Burrito. Looks great! I opened the package and here is what you would get in one meal.

1. Black bean and rice Burrito
2. Mexican rice
3. Soda Crackers
4. Beverage Base Powder—Lemon Lime
5. Salt and pepper
6. Gourmet Instant Coffee and creamer
7. Apply Jelly
8. 3-Chocolate Chip cookies
9. Spoon
10. Napkin

It looks good! Since I am the associate pastor here at Central Community I better find out if they will be good for the people we will hand them to this week. So today at some point--when I get the nerve I will eat one for lunch or dinner. Today might be a long day! I will tell you later what has happened to the 3 boxes of MRE’S and the one Black bean Burrito I will eat----today? Looking forward to those Chocolate chip cookies!
