Me too, but I never saw that freeze dried entrees and that canned fruit cake before!

I still have no idea what this is... I recognise the packaging but cannot remember where from.

Housil would you like another tinned fruit cake? I think we stock them in work, if we don't I'll pick one up next time I go to a larger shop with my parents I'll even include a packet of custard so you can have a real British Desert

Today I got from an Ebay auction an unknown (to me) probably UK, freeze dried ration. Maybe some "arctic" or "RCW"?


Have you ever seen that UK (?) ration before?

You are in fact right, that appears to be an Arctic 24 hour ration. But only a piece of it as shown below.

Also some translated text.

It is military ration menu A for British troops 1st of the production for 1991. As for the box dimensions, 14cm in height 19cm in width 13cm in depth weight of a little less than 2kg end is jam-packed ARCTIC in a meaning called a thing of severe cold, and the size of the box is cold districts specifications military ration.

The contents were divided into four units greatly, and a menu list and a sponge entered with a rose towards a bottom.

Try expanding the contents of all and this is just one belonged. You’ll see things quite abundant quantity.

2 packs of instant coffee beverage unit and six-pack of tea, a bag of cocoa powder and orange juice 25g more 08 packs 06 packs of sugar and creamer, six beef stock material in passing water

And sweetness is abundant, too, and a cookie mixes two kinds and a raisin nut glucose tablet (candy) raisin chocolate one, chocolate cookie two, caramel chocolate two. In addition four chewing gum (according to the menu, there seems to be the mint cake, too)

Many of main kinds are soup of cooking of the scrap beef, mashed potato, chicken soup and the mushroom in freeze dry. The dessert Hiroshi pear or an apple. There are the canned ham spread and oatmeal, too.

Finally, as accessories, paper match and two kinds of waterproofing matches are in several each, and a certain person of the ice looks just like it the stick which thin multi-purpose paper, sponge with the detergent, tissue, it and what don’t understand besides it whether you use it. The back of the cabinet becomes the target and gets possible to list small data.
