Hi Ian,

The only references I've read mention bread, bisscuits and cheese. Neil Johnstone told me (if I remember right) that this is also mentioned in the Ogilvie orderly books. I don't think the food is at all mentioned in the Appins orderly books.

Cheers,
Henrik

Of course you can't forget the oatmeal. ;)
