So, what do you think? Is it a good ration? I found some for about 17-20 Euros - still high - think it isn`t it worth - maybe - but if its high quality...
Can buy directly from BCB!!!

OK, thanks, will try them out soon - 6-7 years can change a lot!
let me know how you get on,your right about changes because the one i had used retort wet main meal and by the look of the photos the meal are dehydrated or freeze dried. good luck
Great pics and I'd love to get a couple British 24 hour ration packs. That being said, I'm curious about a couple things; first of all, are the kendall mint cakes any longer issued in these or any other UK rations, and second, have the manufacturers of the rations had the same or similar issues with chocolate bars designed for multi-climate as we have had here with the desert bars (mainly digestive problems with the troops)? Thanks!
