I bought food rations for emergency situations – they have a very long shelf life, about 5 years, are solidly packaged and can be stored safely in various places, such as at home, in the car or in a storage unit. I recommend them both for tougher times and for trips to nature.

Opinions on the taste of these rations are divided – some people praise them, while others have a different opinion. Personally, I like the taste. I keep a few just in case, because that's exactly what they're for. A big advantage is also their long shelf life.

Great product. Tasty, well packed and durable. Perfect as a snack for your backpack, car or shooting range. The taste is reminiscent of a combination of biscuits and halva. I definitely recommend it.

This 1 kg food ration set is very practical – it works perfectly both as an emergency supply and during longer trips. The portions are nourishing, and the ingredients are well chosen to meet increased energy demands in difficult conditions, which makes it easier to maintain endurance in the field. For camping food, the meals are quite decent in taste and variety. The packaging is sturdy and airtight, which makes transport and storage easier. In summary, the product serves its purpose well and I can recommend it to anyone looking for long-lasting, ready-to-eat meals for extended periods.

I bought this as an emergency food reserve for unforeseen situations. It will be permanently kept in the car. The twin pack costs a bit less than two separate packages.
