For the first time I had an opportunity to taste a Croatian ration. I got it from Crombat Rations team - thanks a lot !
The ration is "German style" - packed in a cardboard box, with no additional items like cutlery, heater etc.
The overall impression is very good - it is tasty. made of good quality ingredients and have some "homemade taste" the content: for breakfast I had:
crackers, chocolate, honey, turkey luncheon meat, dried pineapple, orange sports drink and coffee candies The crackers are the best I've ever had in rations - crunchy, not sweet not salted, baked on one side. The luncheon meat is very homogenous, tastes decent, but not my favourite one, the honey is fine. The kavabons should be more "coffee" for me.
the lunch:
beef soup, beans with bacon, sports drink, crackers, paprenjak, coffee candies The soup was very good, not artificial. The entree (the "hamburger" name cheated me
) was good, very fatty, because the bacon was chunks of pork lard/belly, but with the tomato sauce tasted good. No need for seasoning (BTW - there are no salt/pepper/spices in the ration)
Paprenjak is a kind of cake like gingerbread cake, but not with so many spices and sugar. You can really taste the black pepper (the name comes from it).
for the dinner I had:
pork pate, crackers, dried papaja, sardines in oil, honey, lemon tea
