The New York Times has an interactive look at the contents of 14 nation’s MREs. Worth a look if you think you might get the chance for a trade. You can get in idea how Polish Bogracz stacks up against chicken cavatelli.

Looks like almost all the nations MREs would be an even trade except for the Lithuanians and the Canadians. Save the Jambalaya for them.
