Protein, for example, is in short supply in many areas of the wQrld, Hult says. The packages vary in food content according to the dietary needs of 5 areas. There are, in all, special packages for South Europe and South America, North Europe, Korea, the Middle East and the Far East. The profein content of certain packages runs as high as 19 days supply for an average 25 year old man (by American dietary standards), largely due to the presence of dry milk andor cheese. On the same basis, some of the packages offer enough calcium for 35 days, and enough riboflavin for as high as 30 days. Each package contains between 13 and 15 pounds of food.
