| Customer Reviews: Emergency Preparedness - Long Term Food Supply January 23, 2010 Michael Zachary (Corona, CA United States) 33 out of 41 found this review helpful
This is simply a terrific product. In these days of disasters and emergencies, we prepare in many ways, and this product is a perfect way to provide yourself and your family with "food supply insurance". The food comes in a 5 gallon heavy plastic barrel, with a secure lid. It contains 275 packets of food. Various types of food are included, such as potato soup, corn chowder,cacciatore, western stew, country noodle, and lots more. The packets typically can provide 4 or 5 servings of high calorie food which is perfect for survival in emergencies. I tried a few, and they are pretty darn good, and I would have no difficulty eating them during a food shortage. Having a lot of food on hand like this provides a certain comfort level, and once you have it, you know that you've done the right thing for yourself and your family. Another great feature is the 20 year shelf life! Can you imagine that, 20 years! I'm glad I bought the barrel of food, and I think it's a great investment, and think of it as food supply insurance.

Good, but misleading packaging June 9, 2010 Matt (Atlanta, GA) 34 out of 35 found this review helpful
Fast delivery and I'm happy to have a stash of emergency food. But, the packaging is a little misleading. It's not 275 individual servings. It's 55 packets that contains 5 servings. So you either need to cook 5 servings at a time or have a way to measure, divide, and store the 5 servings between meals. Not a big deal but just be aware. Overall, I hope to never need to use this product!
Lots of food, but very small servings July 30, 2010 Brendan Anthony 20 out of 21 found this review helpful
Some info to make deciding whether or not to purchase: this bucket comes with 275 servings of food. However, as another reviewer noted, the food is packaged in servings of 5. What the other reviewer did not note is that the servings are relatively small: I computed that the average calorie count per serving is 128. Assuming a 2000 calorie diet, this means that you might be eating 15 servings of this food every day in an emergency situation, which works out to about 18 days of food.
That's less than I expected out of 275 servings, but this is still a huge, cheap, long lasting bucket of food. I haven't tasted any of the food, nor do I plan to for the next 19 years or so :) For now I'm definitely still glad I bought it!
