If the containers are not bulky, they are Ok to give them a try. Smell they odd? Do they give you a "numb" tongue? Use your senses.

Good point! Thanks!

So I've got a Dutch 24hr cold weather ration, everything's freeze dried I believe. I'm generally just wondering about how safe it is to eat the things inside.

The Pate's look normal for me, they dont appear to be bloated, its normal that they are filled to the brim and beyond. The Mains also look pretty normal to me, but to be sure you should smell them first before tasting, if they smell off (sour or rancid), you should be careful with it. The Mains are...

Dont think that it has gone bad yet, after only 2 years, unless it stood out in the desert sun for the last 2 years

Couple more of the pouches. Sorry for the spam.
