Emergency Meal Assortment Kits
A bucket of freeze-dried meals with a 30-year shelf life, suitable for emergency kits or as grab-and-go food for RVs.
$117.99
This product includes 12 pouches of freeze-dried meals: beef stew, breakfast skillet, scrambled eggs with bacon, and rice with chicken. To prepare, simply add hot water to the pouch and wait approximately 10 minutes.
Mountain House states these meals have a 30-year shelf life and offers a taste guarantee. The bucket's compact size allows it to fit on a closet shelf, and the pouches are gluten-free.
Preparation requires 17 cups of water for the entire kit, so it is essential to have water stored for emergencies. Additionally, this item is non-returnable on Amazon except in cases of damage, which is important to consider if it is intended as a gift.
