NASA's Beef Pot Roast

Mmmmmm, looks very tasty! You can buy this on an online auction. A leftover of the Apollo Lunar project. Start bidding!

"Amazingly unappetizing but wholly unique freeze-dried "moon food." This particular example, labeled "Beef Pot Roast," measures 2 x 3.5 x 0.75 [inches] and rests within a 5 x 6.5 [inch] sealed pouch to which a nozzle is attached. The label also bears the simple heating instructions: "3 oz. hot water. 5—10 minutes." All of the food was prepared by adding hot or cold water through the nozzle. The food was then squeezed into the mouth through a flat tube stored in the package. Food created for the Apollo missions was preserved through freeze-drying and vacuum-sealing, resulting in a product that kept their nutritional and "taste" qualities."
