Canadian/Dutch dinner

[housil]

Mrs Housil went to night shift so I decided for a Canadian IMP for dinner

I grabbed a ration out of my 2006 case

Can you hear how I open the bag...

All items spread out in the kitchen...

A "letter"

Troops can do a rating as feedback

Apple sauce?! But where is the entree?!

The bag was open by German customs from the bottom and they have taken the entree out

So I switched for dinner to a Dutch one:

Chili Con Carne

The opened pouch, just 5 years old

No bad smell

After nuking

A nice and just very litte spicy taste. The beans had a little "solid" texture

I really liked this one, Housil! The only sad part is the German Customs removing your entree.
Very sorry to hear that happened - it is that ever frustrating question of why they feel the need to do that to us - it's only food - and it's such a luck of the draw on when they take it or leave it.

And I must say, that Dutch Chili Con Carne is fantastic! I had the one you sent to me - I felt like it was a more complex flavored and satisfying chili than any other I'd ever had from a Ration!

So nice to see it in good clear photos here and to know you got to enjoy one as well.

Nice improvising with the missing entree. My first international ration is set to arrive (Russian MVD IRP) when i'm on vacation and I hope it will arrive unmolested.
