Hello MikT-
When I found the P3 menu on the ration list on the box, I had no idea what "balti" is. The main meal pouch actually says "chicken curry with rice".
Had to get the dictionary out, but now it is clear. I have the feeling that Indian food is much, much more popular in the UK than it is here in the US. I haven't eaten that part yet, but it doesn't sound too bad (I think).
I've only done side dishes and crackers so far, and they are all excellent. The apples and custard was very tasty, as are the Yorkies. I had the powdered white tea and brown biscuits for breakfast this morning. The tea already has some kind of creamer mixed into the powder, and it didn't need any of the 6 (!) huge sugar packets included with the accessories.
Does the MoD really pack 10 of the same meal to a case? I don't think I could eat 10 of the same menu even if it was something I really liked.
