I've bought the odd ration pack now and again. Plenty of food for 24 hours all right, though a bit heavy to carry. Good enough food though. The Corned beef hash was fantastic.

I've been looking into the British MRPs. I came across these links:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4221838.stm
http://www.practicalairsoft.co.uk/gp-menu.asp
http://www.mreinfo.com/international/great-britain/british-24-hour-ration-packs.html

Looks like they're a great job and come highly recommended. Only thing to watch seems to be that they changed to a newer better version a few years back so some of the older ones mightn't be as good. Genuinearmysurplus.co.uk are out of stock at the mo though. Anyone interested in a group buy?
