Wow, this is very cool! And a great adventure seeing what everyone is getting as they ship. I didn't see this post until just now. Bob, do you know how many of the original 58 boxes are still available? Money's pretty tight right now (as usual), but I'm very tempted by this neat offer!

Thanks for responding before I got a chance to get back cavguy! That's pretty much what I was going to say. But I did have another thought too. Yes, the TOTMs are indeed designed for adults who are in classroom or other non-field type training where less calories and nutrients would be needed. But, ...

Wow, that's really cool! Thanks for sharing it here Dropbear! I can't say I'm an expert on Australian rations, but have certainly never seen or heard of those before. It kind of reminds me of the U.S. TOTMS in that it seems to be all genuine military ration components supplied by the government, but...

Whoa, I JUST saw this post (been a while since I've been able to check in). I can't believe you had 2016 IMPs Bob! You truly seem to be the King of IMPs!

Here's my take on the Trekking Burger:



I almost hate to say that it wasn't all that bad, but apart from the disgustingly soggy bottom bun, it really WASN'T all that bad!

I've done a review myself of the Trekking Burger (is was very generously sent to me by Steve)! Hopefully it will be up in the next week or so, once it's all edited and everything. Good news: I survived the experience!

Hey everyone, I've tried out the Russian "Space Food"! While it's definitely a commercial product, it's still pretty interesting, and kind of neat that it actually comes from Russia. Here's my review of the six tubes I got: https://youtu.be/lO3gyJ--MvE If anyone wants to try it out you can find it a...

I've been meaning to reply to this thread for a while, but finally got around to it. Wanted to mention that IKEA stores have a couple tube foods. They have (or at least used to have) a tube of salmon spread that was delicious! I haven't seen it lately, but they do currently have something called Kal...
