I was either the S5 or S4 /admin at the time and I decided to host an Iron Chef MRE battle with our JROTC and two visiting schools at our annual JROTC ball. They had to select an MRE and create a presentable dish. I also put the music of the theme song from the Japanese Iron Chef show (which is also the song Show Me Your Fire Truck from the Backdraft Soundtrack). They had fun.
