## Description

Our 275 Serving Food Supply Kit provides healthy, quick-prep meals that store for up to 20 years, and only take 20 minutes to make from start to finish. Each serving costs about the same as the change in your pocket, but provides a healthy, low-cost substitute for fast food. And our food supply entrees are excellent for daily use, as well as the perfect solution for any outdoor or camping activity. The recipes for our 275-serving Food Supply Kit are made from high-quality ingredients that have our entrees bursting with flavor and nutrition. Savor the comforting essence of Creamy Potato Soup or the family-pleasing Tortilla Soup for lunch or dinner, or start the day off right with a heart-healthy bowl of oatmeal. Whatever you choose, you will be serving a tasty, 100 percent vegetarian meal with high nutritional values and no hydrogenated oils, trans fats or added MSG.In addition to flavor and health, each entree is easy to make. Just add boiling water and in 20 minutes, a mouth-watering meal is ready to serve. Priced at less than 58 cents per serving, our Food Supply Kit is a low-cost, nutritional alternative to other quick-prep, yet highly processed, meals. Buying fast food in 20 minutes is possible; paying 58 cents per serving is challenging; however, finding fast food with such high nutritional value is impossible.Packaged in a weather-proof bucket that is easily stacked to conserve space, our 275-serving kit can be stored up to 20 years in a cool, dry area. Although typically thought of as an emergency food, it is taste, nutrition and convenience that are now making our entrees legitimate alternatives for daily use, as well as the perfect solution for any outdoor or camping activity. Save your money and invest in your health. Serve our hearty meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Review: Emergency Preparedness - Long Term Food Supply - This is simply a terrific product. In these days of disasters and emergencies, we prepare in many ways, and this product is a perfect way to provide yourself and your family with "food supply insurance". The food comes in a 5 gallon heavy plastic barrel, with a secure lid. It contains 55 packets, and each packet is "5 meals" for a total of (55 X 5) 275 meals. I am a big guy, and each packed actually does provide me with 5 meals (except the blueberry pancakes, which I eat all at once, in ONE meal! They are delicious!). Various types of food are included, such as potato soup, corn chowder, cacciatore, western stew, country noodle, blueberry pancakes, and even more. The packets typically provide 5 servings (meals) of high calorie food which is perfect for survival in emergencies. I tried a few, and they are pretty darn good, and I would have no difficulty eating them during a food shortage. Having a lot of food on hand like this provides a certain comfort level, and once you have it, you know that you've done the right thing for yourself and your family. Another great feature is the 20 year shelf life! Can you imagine that, 20 years! I'm glad I bought the barrel of food, and I think it's a great investment, and think of it as food supply insurance. By the way, a few months after writing this review, I bought a second barrel of survival food (it lasts so long!) and I'm actually considering buying a third one too.
Review: It's a good idea. - It's a lot of food for the money. Considering it's made to last 20 years you can't expect it to be 5star food. That being said; I have not tasted it but it is sitting in my closet just in case I need it. I really like knowing that I have it to fall back on if something happens. After Hurricane Katrina I was living in Jackson Barracks while running rescue missions in Chalmette and surrounding areas. The food and water shortage was the biggest concern people had. I witnessed people stealing food, water, and other belongings from those that had it. Those that were well stocked on food and water did not want to be rescued along with the rest of the others because they didn't want to go through that ZOO. It was a horrible experience for many families, especially those with small children or the elderly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much food is in each pouch? One meal for one person, or 5 meals that will go to waste, unless you invite neighbors?**
A: I bought that Survival Food 3 years ago, and now that food is not edible. Recently I cooked some of the soups, and all tasted awful bitter, so I would not recommend it to buy or eat.

**Q: Can you open the bucket without effecting the pouches?  Still 20 years?**
A: Did not have a good experience with this product. Food did not taste very good.

**Q: Is the bucket resistant to rodents? Our storage area is in a place that can be vulnerable to rats.**
A: I would think it would be extremely difficult for rodents to get through the bucket. No guarantees but I'd be highly surprised if anything smaller than a dog could get into it :)

**Q: How does the food actually taste? Is anybody actually trying it before storing it, or just hoping for the best?**
A: Due to economic hardships a few years back, I and my family ended up living on this stuff. I was actually surprised that it tasted as good as it did. I figured that the company could get away with lousy food because either customers would never have an emergency that warranted eating it, or they would be so glad they had SOMETHING to eat no matter how awful. I can't speak to other food storage items, but because of my experience, Food for Health is the only line Patriot GSE carries

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As described, glad I bought it!
*by D***M on October 26, 2010*

Imddisastersurvivalkit sold me this item, and though it took a while to receive it, the seller communicated every step of the way, quickly and politely. I recommend this seller. The basic serving size is ONE cup. 1 idea to increase calories would be to add some vegetable oil to the product or some protein. In a true emergency I don't expect to maintain the weight that I'm at now anyway, LOL! I am putting this away and if need be I'll take it out and use it after 15 years or so. For the price it's an excellent investment and I highly recommend buying this now. please rate this review, thank you and God bless!
