      It's not like the chocolate in there is "special mre chocolate" Germans are just good at making chocolate, and people like Steve1989 notice cause they focus on the flavor. Many people would eat that chocolate bar and not appreciate the complex flavor.

    Peak of the Cold war and at the front....... These guys had a serious concern,you can see by how well preserved this is how well fought out the packaging was for its time especially. This is probably one of the most fascinating rations I've seen technology wise.
    It was really meant to be very long term and bad environment freindly

    • @Lappmogel
      @Lappmogel 2 года назад +5

      Its meant to be carried around all day, unpacked and repacked all the time. Only to be used if you lose contact with the field kitchen. Thats why its so overbuilt compared to modern mres that are usually consumed shortly after being issued. I really like its design, very slick and hard packaging so that it can be jammed down in your pack without much care.
