Caloric content of IMPs

[Armymedic]

Does someone have a link on the internet of what actually goes into the each of the IMPs and average calories for each of the three meals?

I do not have DIN acess. No conjecture or opinions needed. Just facts.

Thanks.

Each one has about 1200 calories for a total of 3600 per day.

Google search "caloric content of military imps" and click the pages from Canada.
This one was the 5th one down the page titled Chapter 2 - Standards and Procedures.  I had to open it as an HTML.  Scroll down to Annex F, para 1. for calorie content then Annex G for sample menus.

Good link, geo.  I've never seen a LMC before but they look better than the IMPs.  Maybe with the exception of the freeze dried cheese  ???

They suck after having to eat them day after day......as does any type of food.

From my experience the LMC's are more of a 'snackpack' than an actual meal.  And the cheese is absolutely awful.  :'(

Anyone remember the LRP (aka LRPS) that we used to get in the great white north?
