Know though that these are really, basic survival rations. They're calories and carbs and not a whole lot else. Think sweetened, lemon or cinnamon flavored saw dust. They're designed to keep you alive, not to thrive. If you can afford it (and are able to add a small camp stove (by way of example [amazon.com] ) to your emergency bag), consider freeze dried meals like Mountain House. They're more nutritionally complete and much more palatable.
This emergency preparedness pack likewise looks like some actual thought went into it, especially at this price. I'm particularly impressed by the inclusion of the weatherband radio and the name brand LifeStraw water purifier. The inclusion of feminine hygiene products is another unusually thoughtful touch. Most emergency kits, even those that include personal sanitation items, seem to forget that women may also be displaced by disasters.

Someone complained about weight for hiking vs 40lbs for a 7 day kit. Think less about lone wolf, head-to-the-hills bug out fantasies and more about real world emergency situations like wildfires, floods and hurricanes. When you might benefit from something that you can quickly grab and evacuate by car. That will help you immensely if you end up in a public shelter, at a friend/relative who lives in a sturdier structure but with no power. Or heaven forbid, in your vehicle at a rest stop along a traffic-congested evacuation route.
And why 72 hours? Emergency preparation agencies universally counsel that people need to be prepared to get by for at least three days before you can expect a coordinated government response in the event of a large scale disaster. FEMA recommends that every household have a emergency kit with many of these included items.

Building your own kit from scratch that's customized for your needs and your personal assessment of risks to prepare for is always the best route. But realistically, most folks are - at best - going for a pre-made kit. For $70 bucks, this is a really decent start.
