The only thing that could be criticized is the price. Tasty, the included spoon is sturdy, and so is the packaging. Plus for the large pieces of real meat, not scraps like in rations from some other producers.

The order arrived within two days, the delivery was express, and the product was carefully packed. I chose this ration to supplement my survival gear, and it turned out to be a great choice. It has a practical, compact shape, is easy to stash, and convenient to carry. It will work great during hikes or in emergency situations. The meal is uncomplicated, nutritious, and gives me a sense of security when I have it in my backpack. I will order more rations soon. I recommend the store military.eu – the service is professional, everything is handled reliably, and the shipping is very fast. I am very satisfied with the purchase.

Was it tasty? Yes, it was. Was it warm? It was. Are the crackers hard? Always. Can you prepare it quickly and not worry about anything around? Yes, you can. Did the dog want to eat my portion? He did. Overall it’s cool, but I’m still more of a fan of taking freeze-dried food and a stove after all.
-
Solidly packed from strong material, everything you need to heat and eat is included in the set. I recommend it as equipment for the second line (e.g., in a tactical belt).
-
The menu has been successfully reviewed, in my humble opinion I think it lacks a coffee or an isotonic drink and some kind of spread for the cookies, even so the products are good.
-
My rating is 5. The heater does its job although it is not great. The dish was lukewarm. The dish is fine after adding the spices included in the set (personally we season it more, but you have to take into account the portion should suit everyone). The portion, along with the included crackers, was enough to fill me up. Calories are fine, a good option for me.
-
A great option for a hot meal while camping or on a trip when you don't plan to light a fire or cook on a stove. The taste is okay, though nothing spectacular. I bought it out of curiosity and if there's no need, I won't buy it again. I was hoping for pumpernickel, but the description misled me – the ration came with special crackers.
-
Food rations from militaria.pl are a very practical solution for trips and emergency situations. Complete, well packed, with accessories like cutlery, napkins, heaters. Great quality at a reasonable price.
-
The fillet itself is very good, the sauce is a matter of taste, but it lacks some kind of filler like groats or rice. You can always add crackers from a larger ration, but that's still a bit too little. Other than that, everything is fine.
-
Lasagna, for me, is actually one of the worst tasting; it tastes a bit like paprikash with pasta. Nonetheless, the portion is sufficient, and with the crackers, you can get full—and that’s exactly the point.
-
Spaghetti is probably the most neutral in taste, at least for me. The heater gets very hot. The rusks can be used as an extra filler and tossed into the spaghetti. I recommend it.
-
The taste is actually okay, although it's no match for bigos, but it's edible. The heater does its job, maybe it even heats for a bit too long. I recommend putting the crackers into the stew to soften them up, so they serve as an extra filler.
-
Bigos with sausage, which really surprised me, turned out to be one of the best in taste. Very good sausage and the right balance of meat and vegetables, I recommend it.
-
The dish is tasty, nutritious, and filling. Tastes like beans prepared at home. A portion of beans plus pumpernickel bread is enough as a dinner meal. The chemical heater is a convenient option, but in low temperatures you have to keep it under your jacket while heating for effective operation. I recommend the product and the Militaria.pl store.
-
Good and quick to prepare. I mainly buy these rations out of sentiment and curiosity about other dishes, and they always work, to a greater or lesser extent. Heavier than freeze-dried meals, but you get what you pay for. I recommend them to those who are familiar and those who haven't tried them yet.
