The dehydrated meat is gone (thank goodness!). The meat meals are much tastier than they were, although I realize that may not really be saying much.
There really is a wide variety of entrees now, and candy like M&M's are still there, as well as Rollos, Skittles and Chicklets.
One sad note is that the little bottle of tobasco sauce is no longer a universal item, and is only included in the non-vegitarian meals.
