The set did not include either a heating bag or the heater itself – at this price I feel disappointed. I had to heat the main dish in a pan after returning home. The sauce, if it can be called that, didn't taste anything like mustard; it was bland, and the turkey meat was dry and tasteless, even after adding salt and pepper. After eating half, I felt unwell and threw the rest away. I gave two stars only because the extras were good – though it's hard to fill up on them without a proper main dish. The energy bar tasted great, the rusks as usual – best to bring something to spread on them, like jam or peanut butter. I really liked the isotonic drink: it had an intense, good flavour and hydrated well. The instant tea was also a successful addition. The large rubbish bag is a plus, paper straw but it does its filtering job, chewing gum another plus. I didn't have the chance to use the water purification tablets. In summary: even at a discount, it's not worth spending nearly 50 PLN on this ration due to the very poor main dish and lack of a heater. Other elements were tasty and practical, but unfortunately I don't plan to buy this ration again, so I don't recommend it.

It's definitely edible, although top chefs would probably reject it. The use-by date is fine, the price is similar to others, and the extras are a great touch. I recommend this product.

The food ration is intended for one meal, but the amount is enough to satisfy hunger for half a day. The main dish is very tasty, nutritious and filling. The extras are of high quality and also taste good. The water filtering straw and the tablet make it safe to drink even two litres of water. I recommend this product, as well as the Militaria.pl store.

A set intended for one meal. The products are fresh, good quality, tasty and filling. The main dish can easily be heated using the included chemical heater or over a campfire. A big advantage of the set is the presence of a bag and water purification tablet, as well as a filter straw – in an emergency or survival situation, these extras can really make life easier. The product and the shop Militaria.pl are definitely worth recommending.

One hearty meal with extras effectively satisfies hunger and provides calories. Great portion for a single break – for example, during a hike or while taking a break. Simple and to the point. The products are fresh, tasty, and of good quality. The łazanki taste homemade. I recommend both the product and the shop.

Delicious Polish products! A bit high in calories. The use-by date could be a little longer, but functionally they are only inferior to the French equivalents. Otherwise, I recommend them because I've tried most options. I remember the American MREs the worst, but ours are really great.

I've already ordered the ration and can't wait to eat it – I bought it just in case, as a backup. I really appreciate that the ration includes additions such as a water purification tablet, which you can use if you're dealing with an unreliable water source and are worried about stomach problems.

An ideal solution for people who don't want to cook while camping, canoeing, or traveling to places without shops and restaurants.
