As mentioned in the Protodimension thread, let's look at getting some survival gear and other stuff together for issue 22! :D I'm looking at a fictional company that buys rations around the world as exotic prole fare, the misc. stuff long range shooters use(shooting jackets, lo and hi tek wind speed indicators, ballistic charts), camping stuff for the masses.
For some inspiration,I once held a Chinese Ration made in Singapore, and have eaten the S. Korean dehydrated ration. I also believe this gear can be interesting filler for the Dark Earth. The corperation may be a front for minion hunters.

In my Dark Conspiracy London campaign I had a couple of corporations supplying their ballotmen with Russian Army rations. The factories producing the ration packs in Russia raised about 75% of their income by selling to the Corps.

A weapons salesman buys these rations at a reduced rate, offers them as cheap, exotic prole food. Corps use them as rewards, to celebrate events, etc. Mark up was 50%, shipped home on the ships that delivered weapons. Some wind up on the market, but I need to make a commercial name.
