Micro busts one out of what appears to be a MRE, opens it and starts mixing it when the Punisher is like "Just give it to me" and starts eating it, while Micro picks up a huge homemade hoagie...

The Punisher is sustained purely by hate and MREs. Never go into the bathroom after him.

There's actually a scene in Punisher: Warzone where he takes a family into his secret hideout, and the only food he has are egg&cheese MREs. God, all the farts in that enclosed space...and how does he stay perfectly quiet when he's on sniper duty?

Besides, he's learned to use those to kill too.

Grandpa meet up with the Soviets at the Elbe. He said that they had some blue alcohol that got him really really drunk and he didn't remember anything much after the booze came out. Nowadays I'd imagine windshield fluid but what would that have been back then? Coolant of some sort?

Could also be something like gletschereis? That's not the exact bottle I'm thinking of but it's 50% ABV, so it'd do the trick.

I made hardtack, salt pork beans, and cowboy coffee for my class a couple years back during the Civil War unit. They actually liked all of it so I feel like I failed at making authentic Civil War rations. I made too much hardtack and kept some of it for six months to feed the next class, that was a little better. I suppose I should bake more now for my class in a couple months.

Also, I have acquired the 190-proof Everclear necessary for torpedo juice. Beware.

The logical conclusion is that there should have been (more, edit: and younger) child soldiers in the War of Southern Treason.

The trick to replicating the Civil War dining experience is to eat strictly only that stuff but just once a day every day four three or four years and to occasionally eat it either rancid or with worms
