is this legal to buy / sell?

Definitely legal to buy... Can't speak on selling them but they are available to veterans (now civilians) at the stores on base. These are the same MREs we used as Marines since 2007.

How do we know what we are getting (what flavor)?

they choose randomly so you won't know.

It's just one for 12 dollars?

Price in 2020 pandemic increased by 8 dollars

What meals are there?

Wikipedia has a full list of MRE meals here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRE#MRE_menus_by_era I've gotten a few different ones, though mostly things like the chili and ravioli.
