They're fairly easy to make, a quick google and a trip to Tescos (and an outdoor shop) you can make tastier versions of them very easily.

They put something in those Army ration packs to stop you pooping, after a few days on them you're all bunged up.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's other additives too for a range of things: an oul boy I know swore blind they put bromide in the tea in the army to stop them riding the locals. From the cut of the old timers stories it wasn't too successful lol!
