K rations (possibly named after their developer, Dr. Ancel Keys) were compact and easier to carry. They included a can of meat (e.g., ham, chicken, or turkey), a fruit bar, candy bar, or chocolate, a drink mix (coffee, bouillon, or an evil-tasting synthetic fruit drink powder), "defense biscuits", graham biscuits, cigarettes and matches, a wooden spoon, malt-dextrose tablets, a piece of chewing gum, and a packet of toilet paper.
