A quick search of the 'net came up with a CBS news report from Oct 7: "...The yellow plastic packets are about the size and weight of a hardcover book. They have a picture of a smiling person eating from a pouch, a stencil of an American flag, a notation that they were made by Rightaway Foods of McAllen, Texas, and this greeting in English: "This food is a gift from the United States of America."

Inside are several smaller packets with food such as peanut butter, strawberry jam, crackers, a fruit pastry, and entrees such as beans with tomato sauce and bean and potato vinaigrette.

The packets provide at least 2,200 calories per day. The United States has a stockpile of about 2 million of them.

The packets are also designed to flutter to the ground rather than drop straight down to minimize the possibility that they could hit and injure someone. ..."

I wonder who decided on those ingredients?
