      Was wondering the same. My guesses, clockwise from the top:

      • milk
      • tea?
      • meat
      • chocolate
      • salt?
      • bacon?
      • sugarcubes
      • cheese
      • butter

    Assuming you grew your own vegetables, maybe could fish if you had any skill.

    I feel it’s missing eggs. Fantastic protein source. No bread ? Are you supposed to make it yourself?

    I see it excludes bread. What kinda cans would you get ? Beans spam maybe

      Wouldn’t citizens be expected to raise their own chickens, which would provide eggs? That’s how it was in the US so I assume it’s the same overseas.

        My Mum had a pet pig when she was a kid during the war. They had to eat it.

        More than likely. Suppose it would be much harder in Tennants and maybe in the north. Not sure what temperature chickens can handle n

            I assumed they would be fine but I suppose you’d need to protect chicks and again have space for them. Unlikely to have them in built up areas. Maybe communal areas for cities

    This… seems kind of amazing. You get bread and vegetables and canned goods, too? I wish I could get this each week! Good cuts of meat has gotten so expensive.

    Bloody hell that’s a lot of milk! And, well, not much of anything else. I suppose you could make additional cheese??

      I feel more normal about my tea/milk consumption now. Evidently, it’s the way of my people.
