Why would you want to buy military rations? They generally taste bad and not very appetizing. If you want to build some kind of emergency rations or go on a hike, it's better to mix and match your own custom rations from commercial food items. There's a lot of cheap canned or packed foods that are better tasting in Tesco or Giant and you can choose what kind and how much food you want to pack. Just put them in plastic bags and use a heat sealer to make them waterproof.

Personally I hate military rations. If in some emergency situation I guess it's ok, but I'd normally stay away from the stuff.  laugh.gif

I find hardtack more edible when they are put into hot drinks like Milo or coffee and they turn into a kind of porridge. If not you can literally pop a tooth eating them in biscuit form. laugh.gif

You could simply make them yourself. The ingredients are pretty basic and it's not that hard to prepare if you have an oven.

4-5 cups of flour

2 cups of water

2 tablespoon of margarine

3 tsp. of salt

Mix the ingredients together, and make sure the mixture is fairly dry. Then roll it out to about 1/2 inch thickness, and shape it into a rectangle. Cut it into 3×3 inch squares, and poke holes in both sides. Place on an un-greased cookie or baking sheet, and cook for 30 minutes per side at 375˚ (or 350˚ if you have a convection oven).

When they're done, just put them out in the sun & let them dry and harden for a few days. When it has the consistency of a brick, then they're ready. Then simply store in an airtight container or bucket. Should last about a year, plus no added preservatives!

The local distributer only bring in by order basis. I worried that my feet cant fit onto the size. Looks goods but for the time being i will stick to kulit kraft.
