Hhhhhhhmmmmmmm
That could be awesome ,, I think. .

I dunno how i would go with that

You can buy them from New Zealand

Best bet is knowing someone in the reserves. The following is the ingredient list for combat ration one man [ packed 2008/2009.

Beef Teriyaki
Chicken BBQ
Chicken Italiano
Tuna in springwater
Fruit spread, plum,
Fruit grains, raspberry
biscuits , crispbread
fruit, two fruits, diced, canned.

Beverage powder type 1 mixed berry
Freeze dried onion & potato powder
beverage sport powder type 2 orange
muesli bar - forest fruits
curry powder
soup low salt chicken
chewing gum juicy fruit
pepper black

That is one days effort, the other 5 days are of a similar vein, with meals such as beef mince with spaghetti, beef braised with gravy, beef minced with tortellini, vegetable curry. lamb with rosemary, meatballs, beef with sweet & sour sauce, sausages & vegetables, beef BBQ. Various sauces, fruit spread etc. Used to be able to get them from disposal stores, but the bloke I go to says they are as scarce as hens teeth.Wouldn't hurt to ring around. Bob

Do they still have the field expedient landmine?? The small tin of cheddar cheese with a half tab of lit hexi in a shallow hole. About a 5 minute delay from memory.

Yes, cheese cheddar. [ Cheddar cheese, food acid [331], salt, preservative [234], mineral salts [ 339,450] colour [160b] water, rennet.] What on earth is rennet?, and they still have the tubes of condensed milk! Bob

Not the cheapest, and I've heard of people making up their own to lessen the cost and tailor them to their specific needs.

I sampled on for the first time this year, and must admit they were better than I'd come to expect. Mind you, feed them to me continuously over time and my thoughts might change
