Paul R Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 When I was re-enacting, we had a source for these treats. Is it me, or are these loaded with caffiene? I remember eating a few and really being energized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 The list on the back of the tin, says "Coffeingeg?lt etwa 0,15%". I don't know if it containes the same percentage, in the current chocolate. Snoopy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul R Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 The cannisters were the modern ones. Although... I have seen reproduction WW2 era canisters with the product inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
