I have never thought about storing MREs before I've only ever stored grains and canned goods. I like the idea of being able to throw a huge box of MREs in the trunk in case we have to evacuate, but I'm not sure about having these as meals for more than a few weeks. Do any of you use MRE's as your primary food storage? or is it simply a supplmentary item?

I mostly use it as supplementary item..
Wouldnt want to have it as primary source of food.
But then , in an emergency if there's no other alternative ,would have to be happy with it !

I have a 50 pound bag of rice and beans that I keep on hand at all times. It will be great to have if the need ever arises!

MRE's are advantageous when compared to grains and canned food, MRE do not require water to be added. They are meals ready to eat that can be eaten cold directly from the pouch or heated. Meals-Ready-to-Eat are long shelf life meals that can be eaten hot or cold. The MRE were designed by leading nutritionists and chefs to be tasty and nutritional.
