What a coincidence!
I recently opened some 70s vintage C-Rats and 80s era MREs and offered to share them with my kids.
We tossed anything that had swelled or that seemed off.
The crackers in the B-2 units were stale, but edible. The gum was okay. The John Wayne bar was in pretty bad shape.
The chocolate cookie from the MREs was still edible and not too bad, as was the freeze dried fruit. The Beef Hash was deemed inedible, but it came that way when it was new.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
