So I take it that these are one of the hardest rations to acquire?

I believe the cellophane-wrapped sausage-like thing is biltong, a South African staple somewhat resembling beef jerky. It's moister and has a different flavor, and South Africans of all races eat it like snack food.
"I think," said Christopher Robin, "that we ought to eat all our Provisions now, so that we shan't have so much to carry."

That's awesome, when you do be sure to take and post pictures as we have little material on it.
