Mountain House Freeze Dried Foods

There can be a variety of situations when freeze dried foods from Mountain House will be perfect for your needs.  Anyone who has worries about the stability of the world in general or about the possibility of a disaster occurring where they live will want to provide emergency food for their family.  The interruption of normal services, and possibly deliveries of food to local stores, makes a supply of emergency food a necessity, not a luxury.

All of us have some food on our kitchen shelves or in the refrigerator or freezer, but how long will this supply last?  Take an inventory and be honest about what you find.  Is there enough food for your family to eat for a week?  It is true that generally electric outages last only for hours, but hurricanes and earthquakes can cause some households to be without power for weeks.  You will not be able to depend on what you have in the refrigerator or freezer for very long, either – once the food warms up, it will have to be discarded.

Mountain House Freeze Dried Foods will be there when you need them, however.  These include complete entrees; you will have a great choice of meals such as Beef Stroganoff, Seafood Chowder, Chicken and Noodles, Sweet & Sour Pork w Rice, and many, many more.  The fussiest eater will find meals that will appeal to them, and children love them.  These meals are available in #10 cans, and each can contains 14 meals of ¾ of a cup each.  There is absolutely no reason why survival food needs to be boring or bland, and Mountain House proves this with their delicious menus.

Besides main course meals, Mountain House also has a variety of breakfast meals to help get everyone going in the morning and desserts such as Raspberry Crumble, and Blueberry Cheesecake.  Fruits such as strawberries and banana slices are also available.

However, if you do want to prepare your own meals from ‘scratch’, Mountain House Freeze Dried Foods can also supply you with the basic materials to do so.  Diced chicken, beef, sweet corn, green beans, peas, and rice are all available in #10 cans, and like the meals mentioned above have a shelf life of 25 years until the can is opened.

Larger cans are not the only way to enjoy Mountain House Foods, you can also purchase meal pouches that will offer you a convenient way to take along food when backpacking or as an emergency food supply.  These pouches are designed to accommodate one to four servings, and provide a delicious, easy-to-prepare meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.  The selection of meals ranges from scrambled eggs and bacon through Lasagna with Meat Sauce and Chicken Teriyaki.  There is a meal to appeal to every taste.

Not only are the meal pouches light in weight, making them easy to carry along, but the meal is simple to prepare; all you  need do is add boiling water, close the pouch, wait 10 minutes, then enjoy.  Your meal will be just the right temperature, and the freeze dried food will be moist and tender.  The meal pouches have a shorter shelf life than the cans, 7 years, but will probably be used up before their useful life expires.

Another good way to provide for your emergency food is with the Mountain House 72-Hour Emergency Meal Kit. This emergency kit will provide you with three breakfast meals, six meals appropriate for lunch and dinner, and three side dish vegetables.  Preparation for the emergency meals is the same as for all Mountain House Freeze Dried meal pouches, and this kit also has a 7 year shelf life.  Several kits can be purchased to provide for more people or for an emergency supply that will last longer.

When you choose Mountain House Freeze Dried Meals for your emergency food supply, you will be guaranteeing your family delicious, nutritious food that will taste as good as freshly prepared meals.
