http://www.efoodsdirect.com/ These are not your typical MRE style meals from efoodsdirect but even survival begins in the home sometimes. Consider Terrorism, Martial Law, Weather catastrophes, Stock Market crashes, Hyper Inflation total anarchy and the local grocery store shelves going empty. Food, Water, Shelter are basic needs but without these life can be a life and death struggle. Start your emergency plan NOW not when it happens. Budget wisely to add survival type meals that keep in cool dry places when the power is out and your fridge food can go bad. Most non military MRE style meals contain a box of 12 individual meals, these are high calorie energy meals so plan on eating one meal per person per day. Do the math on how many people in your survival group or family can sustain themselves on one meal per day for X amount of days, weeks, months. Most MRE Meals Ready to Eat are about $80 + or - plus shipping. This will seem like alot now but consider the shelf life of the box of meals to last 10+ years in a cool dry place out of sunlight. Weigh your options do a budget check and be prepared not caught off guard. We can add later to this discussion where to purchase military style meals. They do come most often with 2 menu choices, that is 24 different varieties of meals.
