Have had 2 Italian rations now and I just can't see why all the hype for Italian.
I think the big reason for the demand is the rarity of it. I was thrilled with getting one, the actual chow was okay, but with all the comments I got after my review aired now I know what to do in the future if I ever get the opportunity and have a ton of Italian friends to ask. Cheers

over 700?!?!?! Wowza!!! You could supply your own army with all those rations Bob! Now I REALLY wish I was going to be there (not that I didn't already REALLY wish I could make it). I'd love to have the chance to purchase one of those British rat packs (and tons of other cool stuff)!
