They ate meal packs. Everyone received plastic knives, forks and spoons, a can opener, a toothpick, sugar, salt, coffee and matches with each meal. They would also get ham, crackers, peanut butter or jam, apple sauce, chocolate bars and cigarettes. Sometimes they would get cocoa, fruit punch or gum as a treat. They would get three meal boxes a day. They would burn the boxes to make a fire to cook their food. They were only allowed to start fires at lunch time. The rest of their meals were eaten cold. The food was often freeze dried, dehydrated or vacuum packed.And a lot of this food was canned because it didnt go off as easy as fresh food.
