Here's an article from Popular Mechanics about a review they did of three different types of Emergency Food Ration bars: The ER Bar, Datrex, and Mainstay:

Popular Mechanics wrote:While the Mainstay bar received the highest ratings on average, its strong lemon flavor was polarizing-some staffers loved it, some hated it. The Datrex bar consistently received neutral ratings, even reminding one editor of dried biscotti. The ER Bar, while the favorite of one staffer, received low marks and was described as "soapy." For everything else you need to know to prepare for a disaster, see PM's August cover story, "Facing Down Disaster."
