Very nice! For only £79.99 + £12 shipping, you could probably resell 4 or 5 of them on eBay and make all your money back. Too bad they don't ship to the US.

Here's a copy of the auction for if/when it goes away:

Hell,

That's the first sighting of a full case! Yeah, too bad they don't ship to the US; I would've shelved out the bucks.

Hey all,

I looked on the ebay UK website and found out that the company selling the case has a link to their website where you can order FSR's individually. There are only 3 menu's to choose from but the packaging is in clear plastic bag with standard MRE parts in the parts in them and a label that appears to be genuine.

Also a curious note at the bottom of the order page for FSR's there is a small link for what's caled a ration builder. It takes you to a separate page where, I think, you can build your own Brit rat pack. Or so it claims in the wording. I will go abck and double check this and post my results here. I'll also contact that company and see if they ship to the US. This could be an answer to our FSR woes.

i have ordered some of the FSR on their webpage, they are a Uk based company...will post results as soon as I get them

I ordered 2 FSR's from them Menu 2... the Italian ones. They are back home, I'll get to see them either tomorrow or Saturday morning, I'll take some pics then.

Yeah its a builder to make your own... you can put basically anything on thier website in there, I've looked at it its got some Civilian items to add but plenty on Military ones too.... including the freeze dried patrol items which I've only seen a few of. The normal price it comes out as is near £11.... about double the price for a regular 24 hour pack. Postage to America is the killer otherwise I'd be selling them to you.

Ahem
Hello, yes they were our rations and yes you can order from the website.

To answer a previous comment, the FSR's only come in 3 menus at the moment, I know there are other menus planned but I don't know when Natick (SP?) are releasing these rations for general consumption.

And ration builder lets you build your own 'ration pack' (complete with box!), out of stock items, with a 5% discount at checkout. We are developing this (my day job is a web developer) when time allows, and any comments are welcome.

In fact if anyone has any questions, comments or complaints, please email us, message me, or contact us through the website. I'll do my best to answer any questions, and we have a German speaker on staff.

Hey,
I ordered 2 FSR from you and was very pleased with the service, I'll gladly order with you again. Shame I didn't order sooner as I've been looking at your site for a while and was undecided... I'm glad I did.

Thanks very much for the comments! Will pass it on to the long haired general (she helps run the website too).

We don't do it for a 'proper' living so we tend to spend more time on customers and answering questions etc. We have a passion for rations (I'm a poet and I didn't even realise ), and that means we try to get the best for everyone! But we are open to suggestions for more stuff to sell.

Hmmm don't want to hijack this thread so I'll sign off!

someone please refresh my memory, why is it we can't order a case of FSR being in the US?
