It feels like opening the battle food 'Relation' of 1954 after more than 60 years

The

battle food (lation), which was developed for soldiers in military operations, is a diet that maximizes the 'preservability' and 'maximization of calories consumed' that can withstand extreme environments. In order to confirm the preservation of this relationship, a movie of opening the 1954 relationship after 60 years has been released.

1954 SA-4 Ration Survival Food Packet MRE-YouTube

That is what Taras Kul has in his hand.

The package contains the letters 'SA-4' and the words 'FOOD FOR ONE MAN (for one person)' and 'FOR ONE DAY (for one day)'.

The back of the box is pasted like a key ...

Hook this on the protrusion on the side of the box.

As it wraps around and wraps the protrusions, the middle part of the box is cut off.

The box opened when I wound metal around the whole circle.

Inside is like this. The food is packed in a package.

It contained gum and sugar.

And a bottle with a bottle of purified water sealed with wax.

Serial written 'CLASS 2'. Although the meaning of the notation 'CLASS 2' is unknown, Kul estimated that 'the kind of serial may mean different.'

The next thing I took out was a sticky brown object, the wrapping paper stuck to the cereal package.

When I remove the wrapping paper from the package ...

The word 'cheese bar'. 'Is this a cheese bar?' Kul is skeptical.

There was also a serial number marked 'CLASS 5'.

I also found chocolate.

Ingredient names include sugar, chocolate, vegetable oil, whole milk powder and so on.

Instant tea or ...

coffee

There was also a cream.

Let's look at each food. First from the cheese bar.

When I cracked it, I saw a section like a dry red earth.

The second cheese bar is the same, and with a little effort it will break down. 'It doesn't go to the worst, but it doesn't smell so good.'

Then, open the fruit bar.

This can be confirmed that something like dried fruit is contained between the dough like fruit cake. It looks like it still smells delicious even after 60 years.

The chocolate is discolored and has a whitish tint like powder.

There is also Gummi, but the original softness of Gummi was completely lost, and it was solidified like a stone or metal in a tick. Both look light brown, but there are two types, those that are slightly reddish and those that are yellowish.

The cereal looks relatively safe.

The color of the gum is also gone, but it seems that there is no deterioration.

The cereal is easy to break by hand. Put crushed cereal in a cup and pour water ...

I felt like a soup. As it was dissolved in water, the cereal did not dissolve completely, but the grains remained.

Take black tea powder out of the bag and ...

I will pour hot water.

When 2 bags of black tea powder were mixed and mixed, they were dissolved in hot water and became black tea. The smell is also a very good smell of black tea, seems to be a sign that seems to be drinkable.
