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.

Dissapointment

Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2013

Verified Purchase

When I bought the soups in 2011, I cooked some of them to taste them, and they tasted great, but yesterday I cooked two kinds of them and they were awful bitter. There is no other taste but bitterness, no flavor whatsoever. I am afraid to eat them, even if I were hungry enough. After two years of storage in house temperature (72F in sumer, and even colder in winter, around 60F), they are impossible to eat. I think they went bad.

Perfectly fine, quality emergency food supply

Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2011

First, there is a place for having some emergency food on hand that has a very long shelf life and this is one of the better deals out there that you will find. After my first purchase of this emergency survival food supply bucket I was satisfied enough that I ordered a second one. It was very fast delivery and packaged right. The buckets are stackable and the contents individually sealed. I think it has enough variety to be workable. Yes, you can buy these at costco for the same price but you have to pay costco for membership.

Here's my thoughts. As other reviews state, this is not 275 servings sealed in 275 bags. It's actually 55 bags with 5 servings each. This probably isn't the only solution for food storage out there as people's specific food needs can vary. Again, if you are considering this you are probably thinking of only a few scenarios where you would ever use this, and you are probably buying it as an insurance policy thus hoping you don't have to use it. With a 20 year shelf life, if stored properly, it lasts far longer than canned groceries and would work for that.

So I think there is a place for a couple of these buckets on hand. Think of them as your long term food solution. Stack it in a dark, cool place in the basement and forget it. But I definitely wouldn't go overboard. You need to consider your short term food storage needs. While these are great and I recommend them, they aren't super cost effective or varied enough for a short term emergency food solution.

What I do for my family and what I recommend for you is that you augment these with a good dose of canned goods and other normal groceries and household items that your family already uses. Most canned goods last 2-3 years and can be rotated into your normal stock at any time. For example, you can buy canned corn, green beans, mixed veggies, mixed fruit, pinto beans, soups, diced tomatoes, canned chili, tamales in chili, tomato sauce, dry pasta, rice, peanut butter, power bars, canned chicken, tuna, honey, etc, etc...just look at the date's imprinted on the can or package to determine approximate shelf life. You can also find shelf life guidelines on the web. Then rotate them into your current stock if they gets closer to expiring. Also, don't forget that you need water. A case of 28 16.5 oz bottles of water can be purchased for under $4. Bottled water in proper storage conditions should last a year and a half or so.

If you buy a little bit of extra groceries here and there and a bucket or two of these, you will quickly build up a backup food pantry that you can use at any time.

The taste is terrible.

Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2021

We bought this product about 8 years ago. During the covid pandemic we thought we would sample some of our survival food. The Food for Health stuff was inedible, a strong chemical smell and bitter taste. Even the dog wouldn't eat them. I think the contents had spoiled over the years. We tried some of our other brands and found them to be from just OK to very good. If you have some Food for Health products in your pantry, better test them before you need them!

It's a good idea.

Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2012

Verified Purchase

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.

This is for an emergency

Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is a great item for long term storage and emergency supply. There are 275 servings, the shelf life is 20 years, and it comes in an easy-carry bucket. One drawback is the amount of cooking time it requires. I do think that's a major downside to this product. Another downside is it requires a lot of water, and in an emergency, water may not be available. I know there are reviewers who complain that this food isn't healthy and doesn't taste very good, but starvation isn't healthy either. I didn't buy this for its taste or nutritional value. I bought it for survival. I won't buy more of this product in the future because it does take too much time to cook and it requires too much water, but I'm glad I have this one. Peace of mind is well worth $100 dollars.

Not terrible if you don't mind MSG

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2013

They taste ok and I have sampled many of the different meals and I like them but I get sick due to the MSG in them. I am bummed out that I cant eat them and bought them for camping/survival food. If you don't mind MSG then purchase 2 of these buckets because they really are handy!
