I'm pretty sure the reference to ASDA goodness was made tongue in custard filled cheek.

I'm interested in hearing what others say about the Datrex bars as I just bought some too. Do they actually taste good?

One of these days I'll sit down and do a taste test of the Mayday, Datrex and our locally made F.A.S.T. rations.

Rations are not the be all and end all but for trying to get the basic kit down to minimun size they work just fine.

If you buy the standard size Datrex bars they are really 2 days worth of calories unless you are sitting in a life raft.
