Thanks for the pics Norge, the packaging kind of reminds me of the RCIR.

Cool pictures, norge! :D

I wonder how well those things hold up over time? They really look like a French RCIR, but the inner contents are like a cross between RCIR and German EPA entrees.

Found this photo, I hope you don't mind me sharing here norge. :)

Any idea what's in there? I couldn't make out the contents list well enough to translate.
