These small frankfurters were packaged for an unknown Apollo mission. As they were not consumed during the flight, they were returned to Earth.

Each Apollo crew member was provided with three meals per day which provided approximately 2,800 calories per day. These small frankfurters were protected with a 4-ply, laminated film coating, which protected the food from loss of flavor, moisture and oxygen invasion, spoiling and excess crumbling, and was used on both the rehydratable and the bite-sized foods.

Transferred from NASA - Johnson Space Center to the Museum in 1998.
