Somewhere, God help me, I learned that somebody out there is making and packaging combat rations of various World War II forces. Now I did US C-rations in the 1970's and found them passable, and have always heard that modern British Army canned rations are far better than ours, but is there truth to my rumor? My masochistic streak is kicking in.
I learned somewhere that somebody is printing World War I Frey Benitos labels for corned beef. I can still hear my Scottish step-granny going on about "bully beef."
There is also a Russian version of SPAM called "tushonka." I have found a source on the 'net but I'd have to buy it in case lots. I am not THAT brave -- yet . . . .
I can at least brew tea in the time-honoured British Eighth Army fashion, even if I do not use a sand-filled flimsy.
