Other than pay bills, I was thinking about buying some MRE's or something similar just to have some extra long term storage food on hand.
If you want long long term storage, get freeze-dry. That keeps for 30 years or more. MRE has a shelf life of of a few years, longer if stored cool, but it's still wet pack and is supposed to be inspected after a few years. Inspected = open one and see if the snack bread is moldy.
I've bought MRE from these guys before and they were all fresh pack with no issues, but there are many places to get them. https://minotaurtradingcompany.com/collections/minotaur-mres
Thanks for the heads up.
No problem. The Mountain House stuff is usually considered the gold standard for freeze-dried, that's normally who Uncle contracts to make Meal, Cold Weather packs for the military.
There are a lot of people on youtube that talk about different MRE and how they taste, if you want an idea of what to expect from the civilian ones.
