looks like inflated prices on their own store vs amazon

for example rice and chicken is $28 on amazon, they list it as $39.50 so 50% off is $19.75

so yes, it's still $8.25 cheaper than amazon, but it isnt really 50% off

Why does it matter to you? Do you ever see questions about why someone wants so many TV's in his or her house?

That would be a "number" 10 can, not a 10 pound can.

Why are so many Slickdeals folks so interested in bull freeze dried food? Are there really that many preppers here?
Disasters can happen anywhere, look what happened in Hawaii

This pricing is just ok, Costco has had much cheaper pricing for their MH selections recently.

The target audience is outdoorsy folks. Mountain house meals is particularly popular for backpackers because 1) freeze dried means very lightweight 2) easy to prepare, just add boiling water 3) compact. These make it so backpackers can carry a lot more food, or carry a modest amount of food but shave off a ton of weight. When you're hiking in mountains, 5-10 lbs makes a noticeable difference in comfort. I sometimes also just make it when I'm lazy. It's cheaper than ordering out and the food is not terrible in a pinch.

do you guys really buy these for long-term use? Or like camping?
Both. Stock up for the longterm, buy more when a good sale hits, take the oldest purchased stuff camping to rotate stock.

This a good deal. This stuff is worth its weight in gold.
Stock up now before it is too late because you will never know when you will need it and by then it will be too late.
These meals will appreciate in value with time so you can't go wrong!!

Most all are pasta/rice , Much easier/cheaper to just buy pasta/rice and vacuum pack. Will last longer than you.
Just stock seasonings.

If you want to choose your meals this is a better deal. Often they have meals you may not prefer and things like granola with milk/blueberries included in their buckets at costco.
