Food items for the Apollo 11 flight included: thermostabilized cheddar cheese spread, thermostabilized frankfurthers, sandwich spreads in aluminum cans, forty-two man-meals, an oral hygiene kit, and spoons.

A six-day supply of food and accessory items were stowed in pantry fashion to permit some food selection based on real-time preference and appetite and to supplement the meal packages if more food was desired by an individual. The foods included beverages, salads, soups, meals, breakfast items, desserts, and bite-sized foods.

Germicide tablets were provided for stabilization of any food residue remaining in the primary food packages. Four lunar surface meal periods were scheduled. Foods for the four nominal meals, spoons, wetpack food, extra beverages, and tubed ham sandwich spread were stowed in the Lunar Module food box. The remaining items (bread, candy, and dried fruit) were stowed in the utility-light compartment of the flight data file.

The menu contained primarily precooked, frozen entrees with the addition of a wider variety of frozen vegetables, salads, and snacks, which were reconstituted in a microwave oven in the MQF.
