Hi folk
new guy here :D

but in answer to your question why are they all 2004
seems they only start getting released after 3 years
after chomping these for years i noticed
2006 tended to be 2003 rations
2005 " " 2002 "
and so on
used to be supplied meals right from the source of some of them
tinned hamburger/beefburger/hotdog supplier westlers
that was the only way of getting newer than 3 years
but was still no difference in taste

take it easy

Welcome to the forums, clogger! Good idea on the British rations. Makes as much sense as anything else we've been guessing. :-)

Its just rotation. The 2004 packs are being released as they are about to run out of shelf-life. All the ones we get are mostly 2004 at the moment.
