Oatmeal and a couple versions of tried soup? Seems pricey??
I see you don't understand any of the core assumptions about when this food is meant to be used for
Can't I just buy a cylinder of quakers oatmeal and vacuum seal it? It would suck, but that would likely last me longer than 3 days.

According to camelcamelcamel, it's been this price (and sometimes lower) for much of the year.

No, my strategy is to hunt down the preppers and take their stuff.
I don't know about that one. I know of some pretty hardcore preppers who have the goods to put a serious dent in your plan. They know that they have targets on their backs and have even prepped for it. So best of luck with your plan.

i would eat anything else but not oatmeal! i wish they had more meat meals.
Peak refuel are the only brand of freeze dried meals I've found with a good protein selection. I have a 30 day supply I bought from them, pricey but worth it if it's ever needed.

Quote from joebob2000 :
They are packaging the food without oxygen (using nitrogen and/or absorber packets) so that nothing organic can possibly reproduce and no oxidation can occur. Yes a good vacuum seal will get most foods to last a long time but not the 20+ years you get when you properly remove ALL the oxygen. Normal dry goods properly stored will last 3-5 years, if you plan to use the food before that then yeah this kind of emergency kit is overpriced.
Agreed. If one knows how to store food properly with good rotation. This seems to look like an overpriced bucket. On a side note, I eat 15 year old rice that tastes like the day we bought it all the time. Storing food properly just takes a little time and really isn't that hard. Tons of decent YouTube videos out there for those that would like to learn. Best of luck.

Quote from tgtdw555 :
Brown rice is bad for prepping. It has an oily outer layer that spoils. White rice is the way to go for emergency stock.
White rice lasts longer than brown rice, but brown still lasts a decent amount of time. While white rice will last several years if not decades, I've eaten brown rice that was at least a year old (and kept in an unsealed bag) and it still tasted fine. If you keep it dry and sealed, it should last a decent amount of time (eg. Over a year). Another strategy is just to rotate your dry foods so you eat your older bags of rice and beans.

Fun fact, buying oxygen activated hand warmers and putting them in your large bags of food or buckets of food will remove any oxygen in the container.
If you do it to a bucket you may have to cut the lid off to get it open.
