If you pinch your nose and drink it with milk or water, then you can easily eat it and it won't be unpleasant; otherwise, the taste may not be for everyone. The cubes crumble easily in your hand, but that's because it's a dry powder whose moisture has been removed to give the product a longer shelf life.

The cubes break very easily, they are packed in foil, and the taste leaves a bit to be desired, but in emergency situations, it doesn't matter much. A big plus is the very long shelf life—up to 20 years.
-
It has a long shelf life and tastes like ground cardboard – not the best, but I didn’t buy it for enjoyment, just as emergency food. It does its job.
-
Great and very nutritious ration with high energy value. Very favorable ratio of nutritional content to price. An additional advantage is the exceptionally long shelf life. I recommend it to everyone.
-
Very good solution for crisis times. In uncertain times it’s good to have an emergency food reserve. The price matches the caloric value and durability of the product.
-
The ration is exceptionally dry, but that's a feature of this food, which is designed to last up to 20 years. You don't buy it for taste, but rather in case of a power outage or other emergencies.
-
This is an emergency ration I bought just in case. Of course, I had to try it to make sure it could be eaten if needed. It's decent in taste, though very dry, so it's better to drink water or something warm with it. Useful as a backup.
-
The taste doesn’t impress, but this isn’t everyday food—it’s meant for special, demanding situations. It quickly satisfies hunger, and the very long shelf life is a huge advantage.
-
Long shelf life, tastes like cardboard—not great, but I bought the ration as a backup for tough times, not for flavor. The product does its job.
-
A typical ration—it contains what you really need. The texture and taste are average, but the most important thing is the very long storage life.
-
The ration is fine, I took it on a trip—it was okay. Filling and easy to prepare. The taste is quite sweet and very dry, but interesting after cooking it in milk. It’s a great option in a crisis. I recommend it.
-
A great solution for emergencies. Very long shelf life, high energy value, and easy storage and transport. I'm rating without tasting so far, but supposedly better than the competition. The nutritional content is also a plus.
-
A very long shelf life is the biggest advantage. Taste is average, but that's not the most important thing. Ideal to keep in the pantry just in case—I have several packs in case of disaster or another crisis.
-
Long shelf life, tastes better than cardboard but doesn't bring much joy – and I only bought this for emergencies, not for culinary pleasure. The product works as it should.
-
I gave 5 stars because for the most important parameters like calories, durability (it really is 20 years!) and water resistance, there's nothing to complain about. As for taste and texture, no miracles. Very dry and crumbly without water.
