    Survival rations not a replacement for your everyday routine doing the the same things you do in a normal life. The body can survive on even less then 1000 per day if a person is not active.

    I never said you would die, but you wont be healthy.

    The lack of vitamins and micronutrients will see to that.

    You can put away, in proper long term storage, a year (730,000 calories) of real healthy food for about half the price if you do a little research.

    tough crowd. Documented cases of people going 1-3 years on absolutely minimal calories (macro's, not fruits and leafy greens) during wartime i.e. survivors at Auschwitz. Total emaciation, jaundice, hepatic encephalopathy. Then they live in to their 80's. Give Frontier a break they are selling a product that is to be used in emergency situations. It ain't Ritz Carlton.
    Parcels are sent via Canada Post and include $100 insurance and signature required. Extra insurance is available at extra cost to you per Canada Post $2.20 per $100 optional.

    You can grow a garden and never have to buy any food for next to nothing, you can wear a half inch of wool clothing and lower your heating bill by 40%, you can reload and save 40% on ammo, better yet you can save 100% on ammo by never going shooting!!!

    Freeze dried food in convenient packages is going to cost you more then alternatives.

    Can your alternatives last 25 years?

    Just eat twice as much and the calories are there. This is good to add to other canned or stocked supplies.

    People will share their view even when they have no interest in a product.

    In every store that caters to a hobby or sport, there is always the one person who is leans against the counter all day long critiquing everything imaginable, tell everyone what they should do and contributes nothing. CGN Dealer threads are no different.

    I think everyone needs a supplement for food and this is a great option added on with other food supplies. I wouldn't rely solely on freeze dried food, but would add it in with other preserves. Adding in some canned tuna or chicken would make a big difference in calorie intake. If you rotate your food, canned stuff should last many years after a SHTF situation and if you don't have a alternate plan after that, well you're F'ed anyways.

    For all CGN preppers who hasn't read the story of Selco from Bosnia, I suggest you google it and read it. Now, according to Selco's story, living in a one year SHTF situation, were he and his family lived on squirrels, rats, pigeons and canned food at 40$ a piece, these MREs would have been totally precious. I have sealed about 3 months of dry food in mylars, but I will purchase these MREs to complete my stocks. My kids will probably have the privilege to eat that stuff before me.Hopefully I will never have to use it.
