Dutch ROEK, cold weather rations any good?

Are they worth buying?
Anything special about them? I know they can last longer, because the meals are freeze-dried. But besides that?

These are ok but I have found the freeze dried meals in these do not have alot of flavor unfortunately! Also the apple flakes dessert kind of sucks... One good thing is that they have tons of biscuits brown and fruit biscuits in them! If the price is decent you should buy 1 of each menu (I think there are 3 different menu's) to try each one, otherwise pass if the price is too much!

They have the German made "Reiter" freezedried rations that are everything but famous for their taste :cry:

As long as you did not pay an arm and leg you'll be fine! Just know you need to spice up those meals by adding your own spices. Try one of two and use the others for trading!

The early ones that were used in the EPa leicht also, were totally bland... :cry:
Maybe they use the same ones as they use now in the newest EPas. That one I had was pretty tasty!

The price was more than decent, which is why I jumped on these. And they are best before May 2017.
