I guess it serves a purpose but it's still odd

Plus, you can use the giant bucket as a crapper when all those processed foods go through you like a freight train.

Precisely why I shared it. :D

20-year old corn chowder...yum. I don't even like it when it's fresh.




You still need a water and heat source with this stuff...could be a little difficult. Fire is easier to find than clean water in a doomsday crisis.


I'd rather stock up on astronaut food. Fries and ice cream!

It would be better to make a few close friendships / aquiantences with people who grow their own food, own firearms, and keep their mouths shut.

All those servings of food are nice to have around, but next to worthless if you don't have clean water.

Me, I just squirrel away things people will want if the lights go out and don't come back on: batteries, booze, bullets, soap, food, water, razor blades, heirloom seeds, petrol, oil, hand tools, penicillin, condoms, aspirin, and a host of other things I don't care to list. I use these things anway, so they'll not go to waste just sitting in my cupboard.

If things get that bad I could shot a dear or catch some fish.

So 275 meals for $75. 91 days of food for a person, at the cost of $0.27 per meal, or $0.82 a day. This could is WAY cheaper than Nutrisystem for people trying to lose weight, or poor college kid survival kit. Think of all the extra beer you could buy.
