This:
http://cgi.ebay.de/SURVIVOR-EPA-Typ-1-T ... dZViewItem
is called
EPA by the seller, but this is
NOT genuine German Army!!!!
All the items are regular supermarket stuff!!!!
Just another try to make money out of the word EPA. (btw, the correct abbrevation is EP
a, not EP
A)

The word
EPA isn´t a trademark, you can call everything "EPA". It´s like MRE, that means also just "meal ready to eat". You can call every convenienced food "ready-to-eat-meal" also (I guess)

Hey Oli,
Well, at least these "EPa's" are packaged better than the other copies that you've showed me.
By the way how is everything?!

i have to correct you: "MRE" is a trademark now....
only "meal-ready-to-eat" isnt one.

its nearly the same. the mainmeals are from the same producer - only best before date than the production date, the bread WILL NOT STAY THAT LONG as the bundeswehr (german army) ones in alu cans. all other are commercial items too.
