I've had that and it's quite good, tried most of the ones they gave us including the Kosher, Halal and Vegan versions.

i remember once because of a massive muck up we had to eat the exact same rat pack for two weeks and when they ran out we were issued with a massive box of pot noodles for another two flippin weeks until the QM sorted out what was happening with the food and rat packs, i ended up emailing my friend to send out food parcels instead of bluies so we had some thing else to eat, I wish we had good looking nosh like these rat packs

You can buy directly from the manufactures if you buy in bulk (boxes of ten) then it keeps the postage bown. One box of ten by courier is the same in postage as two individuals

It's my understanding you can get them in a similar form from the manufacturer (don't remember who at this point...) and the box won't say "for MOD use only"

If you buy one that does say this, it is likely to have been stolen.

That's my understanding anyhow... (please correct me if I'm wrong)

Vestey foods is/was the supplier to the MOD. Being a little naive in my early days of selling surplus i listed 2 rat packs that had come in a job lot I had been sold. The guy from Vestey politely asked me to remove them (they usually just report the eBay seller but he cut me some slack as I always donated a percentage of ny ebay takings to Help For Heroes) He then offered, in a later email, to send me some unmarked civvy boxes so I could sell them on.
