I had one of the new style dutch ration and I really didn't like the crackers for some reason. I was disappointed because the crackers are usually the best part of the rations.

Kleenex & Duncans
Cardboard brew kit



2002:
Image

Duncans, no brew kit at all, just single items


2004:
Image
:shock: Toffly, Yorkie, brew kit in ordenary plastic bag :shock:


2005:
Image
Similar, some different pounches, cans




So,

Image

My boxes aren´t "new" because they still have Kleenex, Duncans...


Do you know what "NOS" means?!

New
Old
Stock
:wink:

New and old doesn´t refer to the age, it refers to the condition to collectors.

But you are right, my "current" was on the wrong box :!:

But we don´t need to see the chocolate, nor the tissues Sherlock, we just look at the date...
Image
to see they are 2001 made :D and in new condition.


btw:

See first post.

A "new 2001" is NOS allways.


If somebody else would post a "new 1995 MRE", nobody would "complain" it´s brown color... :wink:
