Emergency Calorie Bricks (Crate)

Dense calorie bricks built to keep a person working when the galley is dark—not pleasant, just surviving. Snap along the scored line, chew with water, reseal the waxed wrapper against cabin humidity. Smell of malt, fat, and whichever flavoring lost the procurement argument. Lifeboats and poor crews carry them because they survive neglect better than people do. A brick sustains exertion for hours; eating them dry invites choking, constipation, and the discovery that morale has measurable limits. Pack date, lot, and blunt storage warning on every case.
