Here is a pictorial review of a Menu B 24 hour arctic ration 1994 from UK.
(ration in this picture is from my sons collection)
the drinks was not open since its seald.
but the menu list will tell about what you can find in there.
there have been only 4 menues for years in the MOD so soldiers was have been pretty tired of eating the the same for a long time,there was also just one type of menu in each box of 10 rations...
cheers ken

Cool, cant wait to see it! I'm suprised about the soups, all the old ones ive had have held up fine, only one that went bad was beef and tomato, of which both go bad usually.
I cant believe the size of the of mars bars! Thats only snack size, but its bigger then a normal mars bar today! Look at how massive these 1990s rolos are as well, (1992 Rolo, US matches for scale)
