Description
Food is an essential for any living thing to survive. However, at times, during either an expected or unexpected scenario, you may find yourself in a position where even having a bite of well-prepared food is a big deal.
If you anticipate that you’ll be in a place where food is scarce or a situation likely to create its scarcity, one thing that you will certainly do is to keep ample food reserve to last you up to the time you will be in a position to have meals normally. Unfortunately, without proper processing and packaging, the majority of foods go bad within a few days.
Organizations and individuals involved in emergency preparedness, hunters, mountain hikers, desert tourists and other people who find themselves in such situations need to prepare for both foreseeable and unpredictable food scarcity scenarios. The preparation includes arming themselves with plenty of ready-cooked food that is well-balanced and not easily perishable.
One of the best ready-to-eat meals (MRE) currently on the market is Mountain House Classic Meal Assortment Bucket.
Features
Requires just 21 water cups
The preparation of this meal is a piece of cake. With just 21 cups of water, you are good to go as they will be enough for the entire meal.
How to prepare your MRE: Take one pouch, put around three-quarter cup of hot water to the pouch, stir the food, close the pouch and wait for at most ten minutes for the food to be ready to eat.
If you aren’t in a position to get hot water, don’t worry you’ll still enjoy your food; follow the previous steps using cold water but the wait should be a bit longer-like 20 minutes.
With this food, you can survive in conditions where heat isn’t available such as flooded areas and places with water scarcity.
Includes 29 servings
With 29 servings, the food can easily supply nourishment for more than seven days. So, if you intend to visit somewhere that you don’t expect any other food for a week, these readily stored meals will come in handy for your survival during the period. Better yet, it comes in a lightweight reusable bucket, good for keeping your items safe and together, or storing drinking water if needed.
In case of an emergency, seven days is an ideal waiting period for further help like an evacuation. With food lasting for the duration, a victim who survives the ordeal and doesn’t have serious injuries that may prevent him or her to eat is likely to be rescued alive.
