Maybe you can make a screenshot and post the pic over here?
Until, we don´t have especialy Mountain Rations. The Bundeswehr provides three different kind of EPa´s.
The EPa (I-XIX)
The EPa leicht (I-V)
The EPa arctic (5000kcal)

->Here<- you can see the offical Bundeswehr-EPa-page with all different types and their contents, even the trek&eat freeze dried bags.
