These cases contain in reality , twelve smaller individual cases of C-Rations, which roughly included three tins of food , a plastic spoon , 10 cigarettes , pack of sugar , and cookies or crackers ect , tins of fruit were specially prized . I Printed a few off , the card colour is a little off and a touch thin , but they look o.k , and I brought quite a lot of the card stock now . They are a two part assembly , so takes quite a while to cut out and assemble .

I've actually eaten American C-Rations, despite having served in the Canadian Army. Overall, not bad, but I don't know a single Canadian soldier who preferred them over ours, nor a single American who tried our IMP's as we call them (Individual Meal Packs) and preferred the American rations.
