READYWISE Emergency Food Survival Supply Prepper Pack Bucket, 52 Servings

The bucket was easy to open and easy to close. It was clean inside and everything was well packed. I tried the chicken pot pie flavored mashed potatoes just to see if I would like the taste. I only cooked half a package and I used a microwave hack to cook it, so keep that in mind. That being said, the taste was very good. It tasted like chicken and mashed potatoes. The vegetables were slightly crunchy in a good way. The texture of the mashed potatoes was acceptable. Especially since I did not use the prescribed cooking method of boiling it in water. I mixed one half of the package with three cups of water in a pampered chef microwave pot, stirred well, and put it in the microwave for 2 minutes on high, stirred and cooked for another 30 seconds. Seconds. I left it. Sit for 15 minutes in the pampered chef pot. The whole experience was good and satisfying. I'm going to try their leftovers reheated and see how that goes lol I will definitely purchase some of the other products and try them as well. Even if you just want to eat cheap for a month, I feel like this is a good idea and worth the money.

The breakfast teste surprising good and the fact that they will last as long as stated is even better so I do recommend it for camping or trips or whatever need them for i am going to tryout more from this seller

Haven’t had to use, thankfully! but looks great!!

I've been wanting to get some dehydrated/freeze dried emergency food for some time now, but just found it to be expensive. Been using MRE's for a few years but they are heavy and need to be used as optimal storage conditions (65 deg or less) aren't realistic in most homes. Found these Prepper Pack's at a very good price, $20-30 less than other sellers, and so I bought 4 units. Prime 2 day shipping also was a plus. They arrived on time, and was reading reviews, and although I will save these for "emergencies" and finish off my MRE store first, I won't be tasting them for a spell but wanted to post a review on the other issues people post about. The buckets I recieved are marked as mfg 07/01/2014. So I was very pleased as some reviewers stated theirs were a couple years old. I wondered about the pouches, as one review warned about these "cheap" buckets were old style and very poor Mylar bags. Even stated white buckets were bad style and grey bucket good pouches. Well I was a bit apprehensive then, so although I really wanted to keep buckets sealed I opened one just to know. Well although my buckets were white, as stated they couldn't be fresher than 24 days, but also came in "premium" pouches! Very relieved! I do agree that buckets waste a lot of space. Two buckets could easily fit in one and I will likely do that when the time comes to use them, to save space. Lastly, I want to address the very negative reviews concerning "servings" vs "caloric content". Come on folks, really? If you're using this food for hiking, or combat conditions, then I could understand. Caloric content when you're involved in moderate hiking or combat situations is crucial, as the calories expended in those situations can be quite high. But THESE ARE SOLD AS EMERGENCY SURVIVAL RATIONS!! What those decrying the low caloric content per serving aren't factoring is two fold. 1- Americans eat too much food! Over 50% of us are overweight! and 35% are medically considered obese. We are obsessed with eating, and have conditioned our bodies to expect high caloric intake thus falsely triggering feelings of hunger when we're nowhere near "starving". I have spent a lifetime eating only what my body needed and at 54 still retained my lean body, and well defined/toned musculature. And without any gym time or daily sit-ups to maintain the same physique and happily, six-pack I had in high school. 2- In "survival" situations, high caloric intake is not necessary. If you're expending so much energy to need 1500-2000 cal/daily, you are not acting in survival mode! When I went through jungle training in S. America, we were lucky to avg 500-700 cal/day with occasional supplements of wild fruit, tubers, yes, bugs, and 2 monkeys in a two week period. Sure, we all lost some weight (a few needed to), but all were in great physical condition when we found our way back to our FOB. WATER was the vital component in "survival". People in good health can go at least 2 weeks without food, but only 3 days without water. So, keep in mind what you're buying these for. If you want to start using immediately, and simply looking for camping or backpacking food, then stick with Mountain House or equivalent. That's what it's designed for, and it's great stuff. I've used it many times in the past. But it's not cheap, and if you buy buckets of it for survival stores, very expensive and unnecessary in my opinion. But $46 and free shipping for 52 serving buckets of dehydrated/freeze dried food in the quality Mylar bag is a bargain I won't pass on to add to my survival/emergency supplies. Lastly, my big complaint about the "old" food suppliers is this. They have been in the business for decades. They sell huge quantities of product using the same processes they've used nearly the entire time. So why, instead of whining about all the "me too" dehydrated/freeze dried companies popping up, maybe lower their high prices and increase sales, gaining more customers and increasing profit margins? They've been doing this a long time, and it's just as expensive to buy as it was 20 years ago. I'm confident their profit margins have skyrocketed. One of the reasons I quit shopping at REI years ago when the name became the only reason for the high prices. Thanks for your time. It is, after all, only my opinion. But I'm happy with my purchase and hope I'm as pleased when I finally taste the product. Then, I'll adjust review accordingly.

I haven't tried any just yet, but I am very impressed by the amount of packages inside, and each bag is 6 full servings. Very surprised and pleased with this purchase.

Good

All there product are always if great value. Great to have on hand when you need.

Its not made clear by the listing, but this stuff must be BOILED on a stove of campfire and cooked for as long as 13min to be eaten. Nowhere did it say this. I will keep it, but I wouldnt have bought this if I knew ahead of time.

Great stuff!!

So great to have variety to eat if food becomes hard to buy. And it will last as long as I need to store it.

Fantastico prodotto!!!!

Voor noodgevallen.

⭐️ Bewertung: 5.0 von 5.0 ⭐️ Verarbeitungsqualität: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ Langlebig: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ Praxistauglichkeit: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ Materialbeschaffenheit: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ Preis: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Kaufempfehlung? 👍 🖌 Aktueller Preis zum Zeitpunkt der Rezension: 409,99 Euro Wir testeten eine Zusammenstellung von haltbaren Lebensmitteln zu einer kompletten Notration. In dem Behälter befinden sich dreißig sicher verschweißte Beutel mit jeweils vier Portionen eines Gerichtes. Die Mahlzeiten sind in 13 unterschiedliche Gerichte unterteilt. Natürlich stolperte auch ich über den Preis. Aber vielleicht relativiert er sich, wenn man folgendes bedenkt; bei 120 Mahlzeiten verteilt sich der Preis auf ca. 3,42 je Mahlzeit. Und jeder Beutel garantiert ein Haltbarkeit von 25 Jahren. Damit ist man auf sehr knappem Raum für 25 Jahre mit 120 Mahlzeiten abgesichert. Dies wäre für eine vierköpfige Familie die Notabsicherung für einen ganzen Monat. Oder einem Singlehaushalt für drei Monate. Praktisch finde ich, dass man die Beutel auch gut auf Rucksäcke verteilen kann und so auch bei Expeditionen versorgt ist, ohne unnötigen Ballast zu tragen. Wir probierten einige Mahlzeiten und fanden alles essbar. Es ist keine Sterneküche, aber man kann die Mahlzeiten gut essen. Lediglich die englische Beschriftung könnte für jene eine Hürde bilden, die kein Englisch in der Schule hatten. Aber ich denke mir, lieber eine Überraschungsmahlzeit, als ein leerer Magen. Meine Frau und ich haben uns beraten, wieviel Sterne wir denn für die Notrationen geben sollten. Der Geschmack ist in Ordnung, die Speisenzusammenstellung auch und genau überlegt, ist auch der Preis gerechtfertigt. Daher fünf Sterne und ein Empfehlung an alle, die gerne auf der sicheren Seite sind. ➡️ Fazit: 30 Beutel mit 13 Gerichten und á 4 Portionen je Beutel. Schmackhaft und 25 Jahre haltbar. Ich hoffe, dass ich Ihnen mit meiner Rezension ein wenig behilflich sein konnte. Vielen Dank!
