La razione C (in inglese: C-Ration, ufficialmente Field Ration, Type C) è stato un tipo di razione da combattimento individuale, composta da cibo precotto inscatolato, introdotta negli Stati Uniti d'America nel 1940. Impiegata estensivamente nel corso del secondo conflitto mondiale e della guerra di Corea fu rimpiazzata nel 1958 dalla Meal, Combat, Individual o MCI ("pasto da combattimento individuale") che però la modificò in minima parte tanto che i militari americani continuarono a chiamarla razione C.
