Emergency Survival Food Supply - 24 Tabs 2-Day Ration for SHTF, Travel, Camping & Outdoor Activities | Gluten-Free, Non-GMO, 25-Year Shelf Life | Vanilla Malt Flavor | Perfect for Disaster Preparedness, Hiking & Adventure Trips

I got these to supplement the food I have in our FEMA suggested emergency kit. As others have noted, they are a bit crumbly and chalky when you first start to chew them. That's where my opinion differs from my wife. I actually found the subtle, slightly sweet vanilla flavor pretty good. She, on the other hand, said the'd have to be in dire straits on the edge of starvation to eat these in any of the possible flavors! So as always, YMMV!!The pack I opened has a "best if used by date of 08/2046 on the back so it's a year less than the 25 year shelf life listed on the front but still pretty good.They are surprisingly tasty. Only drawback(in my humble opinion)is the amount you have to consume to equal a substitute meal is excessive. You’re better off (in my opinion again) scarfing down a power bar( or the like)... takes about the same space and usually more nutritious. Good product(I do like them) just space in my pack is limited and these are for me.I bought a small bag to test the product and I am happy to report that they taste good and do what they are supposed to do. They don't generate thirst, which is important in a crisis. I ate nothing but the tablets one day and didn't have any problems. For bug out bags and emergency food storage, you definitely want these tablets. They are much easier to deal with than a big block of compressed "cookies" (aka 5 year bars). If you have a Foodsaver, you could buy the big container and then vacuum seal the tablets in single serve portions. That's what I'm going to do.this taste good you have to eat a bunch to get any sort of "fill" or actual cal out of it on top of that they are super dry and will make you very thirsty so have water if its for emergency ro camping or w/e you will for sure need water they do taste very good tho .Hard to know how to rate these tabs. The quality and taste of are fine, I just can't quite figure out what they are for. They're basically really expensive multivitamins with a few calories but not anywhere close to your daily calorie requirements. The package gives you two days worth of multivitamin with only 240 calories a day including 4 grams of protein per day. What is the point on only having approximately 10% of your daily macronutrients? It's better than nothing but only slightly so. It seems like it would be much more efficient and cost effective to have a multivitamin and some other source of cheap calories.Great product for a great price.Of course, I can't actually write a review based on taste here unless I opened my survival food before I actually needed it. But I can say it was super quick shipping, great price and value. Plus, the peace of mind with having the supply available was wonderful!These were ok. They taste like milk. I think I would feel like I was starving if I tried to eat it as suggested but it is just enough calories to keep you from starving to death and no more.
