Y2K Food Ration Bars

These bricks of 9 Food Ration Bars, are a 3 Day supply of food for 1 person. The food bars are sealed with MIL-B-131 Barrier Material which is Waterproof, Vaporproof and Greaseproof. Shelf life is 5 years even at temperatures as high as +120 F. This makes them ideal for storage in a car trunk, garage or other location where extreme temperatures may occur. An MRE will go bad in about a month at that temperature. They are cheaper, more durable, and more compact than MRE's.

These were manufactured in February 1999 and have an expiration date of January 2004.

AVAILABILITY
These sold like the proverbial hotcakes the last time they were offered. Longer and longer lead times are becoming the norm with all Emergency Food products these days. However, these 30 bricks are IN STOCK now.
COST COMPARISON vs MREs

A case of 12 MREs goes for about $60 plus shipping in the neighborhood of $10. If you eat 3 meals a day, 12 MREs will last 4 days. IOW 70 bucks = 4 Days. 2 Packs of ration bars are a 6 Day supply of food and (at the starting bid) cost $18.40 INCLUDING shipping. AND you don't have to worry about storage temperatures. They take up a lot less space too.

Shipping Cost:

1 Brick.......$3.20

2 Bricks......$5.40
