A 5 gallon bucket of food at Sams Club has food for 120 days. How does that compare to an MRE?
Answer – The bucket is made up almost entirely of soups packed with vitamins to keep the body fed. Keep in mind, for 120 days you will only eat a vitamin soup instead of a hot, complete meal found in the MRE. The soups need water and also need to be cooked requiring a fuel source. Read the instructions for yourself – “simmer for 20 minutes” That is a lot of fuel to cook a meal that does not have real meat. We suggest tasting this product before committing a large portion of your food storage to this option. The bucket of soup mixes is a good supplement to any food storage.
