1. I'm not a big MRE fan ..... but if you want them, here's a good source...

Emergency Essentials http://beprepared.com/#default

They also carry the freeze dried Mountain House and Provident Pantry.

I recommend staying away from anything you find at the gun shows. These creeps are probably selling their outdated "survival" stock. Armageddon and "the race" war are taking a very long time to happen....... so they need to rotate out their old stuff now and then.

Even when I had access to fresh MREs at the base exchange, I seldom bought them. They have a shelf life of only about 5 years, they're bulky, have a lot of unnecessary crap in them, and as Crocodile Dundee would say, "You can survive on them, but they taste like s**t!".

That said, I keep a few MRE entrees and heaters. The advantage of MREs, is that you can eat them right out of the pouch..... No water or heat source needed.

Whatever you decide works best for you, Emergency Essentials is a good reputable source.
