readyWise Food Cheesy Lasagna how to make readyWise Foods cheap prepping long term emergency survival food Walmart 25 year food Dehydrated Meals Prepping Cooking
hi it's AlaskaGranny Alaska Prepper I'm out at my Granny Camp which is my Alaska off-grid
cabin the weather's gotten a little cold so it's a great day to prepare a hot
meal some of the meals that I found recently when I went to walmart were the
readyWise company survival food packet these are designed for long-term food storage and you just
add water you add hot water and these make a complete meal this pouch is the
readyWise Company emergency food chili mac I found it for three dollars and forty eight cents you add four cups
of water and it makes four full filling servings so I'm going to cook the ReadyWise Company emergency food today
and see what it tastes like if it's any good I've never seen the ReadyWise Company emergency
foods in the market before I've read about them online and I know that they
usually come in a bucket with many days worth of food but those are they're
quite expensive to buy an entire bucket if you don't know that it's something
you're going to enjoy so I was glad to find a few varieties of the Readywise company emergeny food
pouches with a full entree in it so that I could try it and see what the food is
like this one is called ReadyWise Company emergency food chili Mac if you look on the back of the ReadyWise Company emergency food chili mac it tells you the
nutritional facts and the ingredients it gives you a manufacture date which tells
you when the pouch was manufactured the wise company emergency foods have a shelf life of 25 years
so you need to pay attention to the manufacture date so that you know the
time line is counting down as with all food you want to store it in a cool dry
place for it to last the longest if you're storing it something like I do at
my off-grid cabin you want to protect these pouches also store them in
something like a five gallon bucket with a sturdy lid you don't want any little
critters gnawing their way into the pouch each pouch of ReadyWise Company Emergency Food has four servings at
240 calories each and this happens to be a 100% vegetarian meal option the Wise Company emergency
foods are advertised as simple affordable long lasting and lightweight
this pouch weighs nine point seven ounces the directions say to bring four
cups of water to a boil you want to open your pouch
you can see it's a mylar bag so it's lined with silver you can see there are
lots of noodles lots of dried looking cheese powder and
you need to look for the oxygen absorber make sure you remove the oxygen absorber
when the water comes to a boil add the contents of your pouch stir it put the
lid back on remove it from the heat and allow it to stand for 12 to 15 minutes
the Wise company emergency food chili mac it's much soup soupier looking than I thought it says allow it to stand two to
three minutes to cool you can see that it's still hot there's a nice big pot of
food I'm going to serve my wise food chili mac with some Mexican blend shredded cheese
it was certainly simple enough but it's way runnier than I thought it would be
but the readywise company emergency food chili mac is a nice full pot of food I've added the cheese let's have a taste and
see how it is
it's not spicy the noodles are completely cooked it's
got just a very mild tomato sauce
it's a little bit bland it's not the most flavorful but it's filling and it's
simple I'm not sure this is the flavor that I would choose to stockpile but it
certainly is simple and in a real emergency I would be more than happy to
eat this there are other flavors though to try so maybe I'll find something I'd
really enjoy eating try looking for the ReadyWise company survival storage foods and the meal pouches for
three dollars and forty eight cents you can try the ReadyWise Company emergency survival food and see if it's
something that you would want for your off-grid living camping backpacking
stockpiling your prepper pantry or even adding to your long-term food storage
it's good to have a variety of things so that you have something to eat in all
kinds of circumstances
