Just used these  http://www.kettlesboiled.co.uk/  they supply all your tea, coffee, sugar all in sachets. Great for a weekends camping and saves the faff/space of taking it all in containers.
Ordered sunday evening and on my doorstep this morning, perfect :)

A.B. - Alternative to Bread. A softy version of hard tack which came in a big square tin with a round lid - go figure. Spread with marg, greengage jam and a slice of cheese processed - heavenly. :-x
Tubes of condensed milk, remove lid, pierce top, insert in mouth, suck and squeeze - delightful. :-x

Babies heads and cheese processed I've had.

Also, there was a chocolate cake too that was good. The fruit cake I tried was like vomit in a tin.

Just loved the way this thread turned into ration pack nostalgia!
