Should be fine Norge, same as a 24 year old MRE meal :shock: You know the drill on eating old rations.. just take it slowly and make sure everthings ok. Knowing Germany it will probably be ok for a lot longer. :D

The biscuits are the same as now.... might explain why they are so hard, they are still using cold war stocks of them. :lol:
