These MREs are some of the best available. They are brand new in sealed boxes direct from the manufacturer. THEY DO INCLUDE THE HEATERS. Many other companies do not include the MRE heaters and will charge you extra for them. 12 MREs ( Full Case) include: 8oz. Main Dishes (at least 4 different entrees) Protein Bar Fruit Bar OR Cookie Bar Crackers & Cheese OR Jelly Accessory Pack (spoon, coffee, sugar, creamer, salt,pepper, napkin, moist towel Flameless Heater The MREs were originally designed by the U.S. Deptartment of Defense for the soldiers, so they would always have a hearty, portable meal that did not require special storage or preparation. You don't need to add water, just heat and eat. They can also be eaten cold, because they are fully cooked. These are GREAT to have on hand in case of an emergency. You will have peace of mind knowing you have food available for your family in the event of tornado, flood, earthquake or act of Terrorism. These MREs are light weight and easy to store. They will store very well for years, in a closet, under a bed, in the basement or garage. Due to the weight of these cases I will ship MRE cases seperately from other items purchased. *This informational tip is provided by S.W.A.T. Medics In cold weather 4 MREs per day are needed. You need to take in up to 8000 calories per day. Try to include 5-6 quarts of hot liquids or soup. Avoid cold meals or beverages.
What is an MRE?
MRE stands for meals ready to eat. The main entrees are sealed in a triple layer pouch and then cooked inside so the food is never exposed to the air until it's ready to be eaten. They can be eaten at room temperature or heated with the enclosed heaters. They can be stored for 5-10 years depending on temperature. The shelf life time was established purely for taste. The acceptable nutritional value and product safety will last far beyond the point of taste degradation.
These are great for camping or emergencies. Having these on hand will give you the peace of mind knowing you have nourishment for you and your family in case of a hurricane, flood, earthquake, blizzard, bird flu pandemic or act of terror.
