“That why the US Military bothered to develop the MRE instead of just feeding troops a water bag and a stick of butter?”
You’re really sounding silly defending the SAME PEOPLE who have made us the MOST UNHEALTHY COUNTRY in the world.
Next thing you’ll be defending the FOOD PYRAMID. LOL!!!

LOL.
Well Matthew - what do you and your deplorably unfit cohorts have to say for yourselves!?
Gee Bob, maybe the reason ADM and Co. have turned the American McSheeple into cash-cows MIGHT have something to do with the sort of ignorance you’ve put on display here by asserting that:
“starvation happens when you run out of usable fat...then your body will start eating muscle.”

Oxaloacetate is required to metabolize fat.
In a water-fasting individual, oxaloacetate would come from two sources:
1. Glycogen (carbohydrate)
2. Protein
What would the source of protein be in an individual who has depleted their glycogen stores?
