Legend:
(B): Beverage
(FF): Fresh Food: These foods are neither processed nor artificially preserved. They are normally eaten fairly quickly so that they do not spoil during a space mission.
(I): Irradiated: Products that are cooked and packaged in flexible foil pouches and sterilized by ionizing radiation so they can be kept at room temperature.
(IM): Intermediate Moisture: Foods preserved by taking some water out of the product while leaving enough to maintain a soft texture. They can be eaten without any preparation.
(NF): Natural Form: These foods are ready to eat and are packaged in flexible pouches.
(R): Rehydratable: Water is removed from these foods by freeze-drying them. They are lightweight and easy to store. Water is then replaced in the foods before they are eaten.
(T): Thermostabilized: Foods that are heat processed so they can be stored at room temperature.
