I looked into Mountain House it is CRAZYYY EXPENSIVE!! $1714.30 dollars for 3 months supply of food on sale from $2449.00. You could buy one years worth of food from the grocery store for that money with better nutritional value.

Bottom line if there is no food is to be had anywhere. You will be grateful for anything 😊

I saw a guy on some show about SHTF, he said, All I Have to do is go to a pet store and take ALL the Cat good luck with that... hope there's no desperate cat Ladies in there..

The calorie brick, thats a good description. They're great calorie per dollar per unit of time stored value though. Get a bunch, and supplement with flavour items like cocoa powder, chocolate milk mix, cinnamon, stock cubes and the like. If you make sure to always have plenty of spices and flavouring agents that you actually use, when the time comes you can turn a calorie brick porridge into a tasty cinnamon vanilla porridge, or a hearty chicken soup porridge. It will be rough still, but it will keep the spirit up for very little extra cost and weight.

Great informative video. I agree on staples like rice, beans, canned goods and Mountain House.

Nice video. Though a real bummer how you actually mentioned calorie counts yet did not give us any numbers. I have looked at some of these survival food companies selling for example "one month food supplies" only to discover that based on the minimum calories you would need to survive each day they would last literally 7, 8, 9 days at best. BEWARE!

I’ve found “civilian” MREs tend to be worse than military MREs. They tend to taste worse and just are not packaged as well. Military MREs can get boring as I find all the chicken and beef MREs taste very similar and after a couple of weeks you will get bored of eating them.

Super review about the overall concept of food storage, I loved the video!! I'd just like to mention an alternative to all the name brand freeze dried companies you've mentioned (and NOTHING wrong with their products by the way) would be to purchase from the Church of Latter Day Saints, ie The Mormon Church. Their belief is that everyone should have a large personal food storage for unknown times. They sell to the general public from their local canneries (# 10 cans) located throughout the USA and Canada. I'm not LDS, but I highly recommend checking them out. I've comparison priced their products to some on this video, and they're 1-3x less expensive. Just a thought fellow preppers!!! Again, nothing against the companies mentioned and reviewed here by Pilot Patriot, but the LDS folks have much cheaper alternatives. Thanks for the vids Pilot, and I can link a website for the Mormon stores if you'd like. Peace brother!!!

I agree with Mountain house #10 cans.. long shelf life with best taste. Peak Refuel are even better but cost much more and I think they only come in the pouches not in any cans.

[Quillons]

Great video. This is very similar to my own preparations so it's nice to see others kind of reinforcing the mindset. Especially a fellow pilot 😁. The one thing that I never see, though, and would love to see because I don't know the answer is about the #10 cans. I don't have any of them. I have a lot of mountain house products (which I'm a big fan of) but none of the cans. EVERYONE reinforces that they stay good for up to 30 years. But NO ONE tells us how long they're good for once you pop open the can. How long do you have to eat the contents before you have to worry about it? There are a decent amount of servings in those cans, unlike the individual pouches. You're certainly not consuming the whole can in one go. I'm curious how long the cans are good for once opened. Thanks again and keep the blue side up!

It should be noted that the powered eggs, powdered milk and pancake mix is not freeze dried. They still have very long 10 year shelf lives though. Means you may be able to find lower cost versions of these items. The scrambled egg mix is particularly expensive.

[Cheerfultoday]

Thanks for packing so much important information into your videos!

I guarantee Ready Hour is junk. I have three month supply just received.. poor package seals and 700 dollars bought me mostly 100 dollars of rice variety’s. It SUCKS. DO NOT BUY.

[jopiaspieder]

I do a combination of everything too but go heavy on 4Patriots, Emergency Essentials, Mountain House and Ready Hour products stacking them to the ceiling.

[billc]

FNG lol question. Once you open a #10 can, does the food start to go bad ? How long do you have to eat it ?

[michaeloswald]

Question what about the heat factor of leaving it in your car or truck during the spring and summer months how does that affect the food and other gear like medical gear in your packs. Just wondering because in my job I can't be lugging a get home bag around with also my tool bag and power tools
