The Canadian IMP are considered one of the best-tasting meals available.
I didn't mind it while I was cadets... except for ham steak with mustard. Evil thing. The giant cherry pie was a good laxative.

mmm IMPs use to eat those all the time in Cadets
^lol we use to always throw around the giant cherry thingys, I liked the Scalloped potatoes and ham. I'm drawing a blank on some of the other meals, but there were some good ones. And the lunch IMP's had chocolate bars they were awesome.

Canadian IMPs are a commodity in the field. US soldiers will trade their expensive gear for it.

Damn, feel so sorry for the soldiers that have so minimal food...
The link provided, it looks as though Australia has more solid food, like more meat substance.
Return home safely!!

IMPs are not that bad.... pretty good stuff actually - when you have nothing else to eat
