This few years old now, but I think it marks and important change. It's good to see the U.S. Military is using all that science smarts for to invent something that's not used to kill/destroy/find people to kill/destroy.

Ladies and Gentlemen: The Indestructible Sandwich

"Capable of surviving airdrops, rough handling and extreme climates, and just about anything except a GI's jaws, the new "pocket" sandwich is designed to stay "fresh" for up to three years at 26 °C (about the temperature of a warm summer's day), or for six months at 38 °C (just over body temperature)."

Thanks, Science.

"The water activity of the different sandwich components needs to complement each other ... If the water activity of the meat is too high you might get soggy bread."

Words of wisdom.
