Emergency rations, also known as ration cubes, combat rations, or field rations, are food supplements typically used when replicators and/or conventional food supplies are unavailable.


In the 2370s, standard Star Fleet rations were a time-released formula of all the nutrients the body needs for three days. Ration packs contained additional condiments such as salt, pepper and bottles of water.

  • Quantities of emergency rations were transferred to Deep Space 9 to keep it stocked until replicators and food supplies could be restored when the Federation took control of the station in 2369.
  • Chief Miles O'Brien's many years of field duty gave him a certain appreciation for rations; he commented on them as being "the miracle of science" when he was one of the crewpeople remaining during the Bajoran's siege of Deep Space 9 in 2370.
