Don't recall whether C-rats or K-rats. The large round crackers were inedible, as was the peanut butter....until you mixed in the grape-like jelly substance....then if you had enough fluid to wash down the stuff, it actually tasted "OK".

Whatever the meat-like road kill body-part stuff was, mostly went to the dogs after a few experimental tastes.
