Reading the recipe, it reminds me of something that the kitchen made when I was college. Imagine leftover jello (at the stage it tastes kinda odd), corn flakes and milk blended together in terms of taste. They weren't the worst thing I've ever eaten, but I've had better, although to be fair they made them at the end of the month when they had to refill the cereal bins to the flakes were like bits of stale 100 year old parchment.

Wasn't there an old USAF emergency ration like this?
