Cool ration! Is that the dreaded sesame seed bar I see in the back?
I see it!!
Just got the temp cap on my tooth 2 days ago and the crown is ready to go on July 23rd. Ah geez. Never again will I eat one of those without at least dipping it in a hot drink to soften it up first.
I got this same ration and just need to complete 2 missing components. The vegetarian curry and the jelly beans. Might as well ask around here - anyone got an extra vegetarian curry? And what brand of jelly beans are in it so I know where to search?
After I review it, I could get all the same components again - refill it and maybe Simon could get a chance at reviewing it too.

Okay it was this brand I believe.
Just need to get the one curry main and mine is complete.
Then to re-pack it and then it can get reviewed again by another reviewer. Not many times do ya get a chance to do that.
Pretty sure that vegetarian curry main is in a Halal ORP or Sikh/Hindu. Shouldn't be too difficult to locate but if anyone happens to have one lemme know it could save some time. Thank you in advance to whoever can point me in the right direction there.

Will ask my ORP guy if he has any vegetarian ORPs left

You have that main in Menu#19 PD 06/2017. in regular ORP.
As for the sesame bar I remember reading the tough experiences with it here on the forum, but since (I believe) every ORP also comes with some kind of hot chocolate or a cocoa you just dip it in and wait. This would be field improvisation of halva

That would be super cool! I am leaving to Ireland shortly and I was trying to get it so I could do a review In an old castle or something

Simon no offence, but in your young age you should enjoy Ireland drunk and with naked girls, not eating from pouches in some old castle
