Tabloid Food Ousts Tommy's Bully Beef (1932)
Scientific Ration to replace Soldiers' Tinned Food
The Pittsburgh Press, 21 March 1932
London, March 22.—The familiar bully beef tin is about to make way for a scientific food tablet in the British Tommy's pack.
The new emergency ration is a four-inch block of concentrated sugar, cocoa powder, tea powder, beef powder, oil of lemon and cocoa butter. It will sustain a man for 24 hours.
