I'm quite new to this comunity, but i wanted to do this post as soon as i was accepted into this forum...
I'm sorry to say this, but the ''cold weather reinforcement'' rations, or acesory packages or 24h rations etc... of the spanish army are fake. I've seen that some people in the forum bought them from ebay and i wanted to avoid that more people made the same mistake.
This ''rations'' are sold mainly by a seller called ''m4driles2011'' http://www.ebay.com/usr/m4driles2011
(What angers me even more is that the seller is, in fact, spanish)
This rations are actually just normal (low quality, to make it even better...
) food you could find in any Mercadona(a spanish brand of supermarket), they have a weack shelf life and dont cost more than a couple of bucks to get them from a supermarket. They look like this, the tricky part about this seller, is that on some of his fake rations, he took the time to add real spanish MRE, here you can see two real spanish MREs with the infamous fake bag...
The spanish army in situations of need will give the soldiers extra food, in form of reinforcement meals, that can be nutricional shakes, a reinforcement pack, containing 2 chocolate and nuts bars 30gr each, 2 bars of spanish traditional nougat 20gr each(its not at all nougat, but google translator translates the original spanish word to nougat... if anyone gets his hands on one of those, they are really worth trying
), one highly nutricional bar of 30gr, 2 ''defatigante'' pills(i dont know the translation, but two pills for muscular tiredness, most likely glucose, electrolytes and some more excipients like caffeine and vitamins, not sure, just expeculating here) and 3 doses of honey or jam 25gr or one tube of 75gr I will try to make soon a extended post on Spanish MRE and army food so that everybody can take a look at the real spanish mres without falling in scams
PS: if anyone has data on this seller and they dont mind, they could forward it to me i could put a notification to the police and ebay for scamming and at least the guy would get his profile shut...
thank you kindly
