Emergency Food Bar
An emergency food bar is excellent for keeping in your survival kit or even your home food supply. Each of these has a 5 year shelf life which meets the US Coast Guard and Department of Defense standards. This longer shelf life keeps you from having to rotate out your supply as often.
Emergency Food Bar
The Mainstay brand product tastes like a rich sugar cookie with a slight lemon flavor which really sets it apart from other similar bars of food. Quite unlike other unpleasant tasting emergency food bars, these "cookies" even pass the kid test. They think they are getting a treat when they are actually eating a vitamin and mineral enriched meal that also gives them needed calories.
The small size makes them easy to store and pack away in your survival kit or home emergency bag. Although the size is small, you are getting your day's supply of nutrients that your body needs to function properly. Each bar breaks up into 6 individual portions making it easier to dole out and to not waste any.
Having a readily available food supply in your survival kit eliminates the need for you to try to procure food when you really need to be concerned about your shelter, safety, and future. By having a few days of rations in your kit, you can set your priorities on more important tasks of survival.
These emergency food bars withstand extreme temperatures also. From -40 degrees up to 300 degrees, these will still be edible even when stored under non-optimal conditions. You can keep these in your closet, pantry, survival pack, or even your car and they will be ready to eat whenever you need them.
You should keep an emergency food bar or two in your preps so you will at least have something to put in your gut when something happens.
