I have found the commercial versions of the american ones via army surplus down south and there are a few of the NZ ones on trademe.

The Canadian ones look pretty good.

Anyone have any ideas on where to get them on the net that ship to NZ ?
Or anyone got a few NZ ones laying around that they'd be keen to sell?

Cheers

I was looking at some French mil rations sold on ebay by chinese sellers. Not too bad prices. My only worry would be if every item in the packs would be kosher with NZ bio security - like, is there honey amongst it. But it was not that well listed re the contents, so I bailed out.

Quite impressive the USAAF WW2 ration opening episode. Amazing how it held. Only thing with MREs, they contain a lot of packaging garbage which you then have to carry out of the bush, but that's not the end of the world.
