Freeze-dried food is very expensive and extremely bulky. Most cooked foods, canned in liquid, are a poor choice; they're low in nutrition, very heavy and bulky, and have a short shelf life. Quality dehydrated foods are enjoyable to eat, take little storage space, and, by a wide margin, give you the most food per dollar. With the dehydrated emergency food storage packages we offer, you win all the way around.
Our foods are packaged in steel cans that are double enamel coated inside and are sealed airtight. Oversized oxygen absorber packets are sealed in every can; a nitrogen atmosphere assures that your food will not be degraded by oxidation. Some grains come in coated steel cans, but most are in 6 gallon Superpails which also have metalized Mylar liners, oxygen absorber packets and nitrogen atmosphere.
