Hey
hope everyone is well.
Just wondering if anyone has any of these for sale or knows where/which ration to find them in.
Also looking for Hershey’s tropical bars, older mre and mci cakes
Thanks!

I want to say I've come across quite a few of the top left and bottom two from MCI's.

Got this one a year ago. It is a game of luck on ebay.com.au...

I know I've seen the "Chocolate Ration" in the Australian CR1M rations. I've seen the "Milk Caramels" in some late 1980s brown bag MREs and in a few 1998 LRPs. I'm curious about the Tootsie Roll, I never knew they issued them outside of the MREs. (Not that anyone asked or cares but my username here references an inside joke. But I do like Tootsie Rolls.)

I found an auction lot for ration stuff that had one it it and assumed it was part of a ration haha. I’ve googled it an I think they came in 5 in 1 small detachment rations. I doubt I’ll ever find one again

I feel bad, I threw away a coconut fudge bar because of the smell recently. Would have looked nice on display though.
