I like that it comes with six blocks of poison. 
In case of capture?

Check out the "Butter concentrate" in the green tube. Made by, The Butter Marketing Board! Interesting name they have there....

VERY well preserved. Looks as if could still be consumed now, but I wouldn't try it.

Fascinating time capsule
Interesting find
Remember that particular style of label on the fruit salad can from the American civilian grocery markets of the 1970's
The other civilian label products from Canada I did not recognize but again the style of labels and fount was similar the USA products of the same era. The main course cans looked like something an American Construction worker or farmer would put in his his black lunch pail circa 1975. At that time cans made by non national brands (some being made in Canada). Would be sold in smaller country stores at a slightly lower cost. I remember seeing small beef stew cans that said PRODUCT OF CANADA on the label and these were brands usually not seen in the larger grocery chains. That Made in Canada label let the American unfamiliar with that brand know it was high quality
.
The tube of Aussie butter/product was unexpected
Also Was surprised to see MCI cheese and jam from central California.
