In the 70's, my friend and I went to a flea market where we bought a large lot of various WWII surplus C rations in olive drab cans. At the time that made them about 30 to 35 years old. We ate them several times when we went camping.

Insane, I know, but, no ill effects. The varieties I recall were; spaghetti and meat sauce, canned hamburger, chicken and noodles, peaches and for a snack, crackers, candy and jam. The crackers were like English style biscuits and tasted like an old warehouse. Those did make me gag as I recall.
