Mountain House has been around a long, long time. They have put a lot of effort into improving their product over the years and the current food is really very tasty considering it is freeze-dried. All of the entrees we've tried have been very good. (Although of course we haven't tried them all and there may be some that barely resemble food. Like anything else, personal taste will be the deciding factor. Adding some spices, hot sauce, etc. to your stash will make a world of difference. ) And the seven year shelf life is nice. The only caveat is that as with any pre-packaged "kit" you cannot simply take their word for how long something is supposed to last, or for how many people. You have to look at the number of calories and do the math and decide for yourself how much you will want or need. Will this keep you from starving? Sure. But if you have the foresight to "be prepared" surely you can plan to do better than just not "starving." And consider that in many of the scenarios where you might really need this food, increased physical activity and the greatly increased calorie requirements that brings might be the order of the day. We have five day's worth of MH food for three people, but we did it by doing the calculations and deciding how much we needed/wanted. And it's a much bigger pile than what this package might lead you to believe is sufficient. Lastly, in addition to adequate drinking water, don't forget the water needed to prepare the food (and although not strictly required, a way to heat the water is a huge plus.)Get more detail about Mountain House 72-Hour Emergency Meal Kit.
