“Concerning amount of servings etc, etc. a package such as....oh, let's use Cheesy Chicken Rice.... My daughter and myself like this dish quite a bit, so I'm always getting more. Anyway....that four servings is rather small for a very hungry person, but appropriate in a crisis, as for maintaining stock and such.
I make it 1 cup shorter on the water and it comes out nice and thick, creamy, and extra tasty!
Two big bowls is the result of just shortening the water by a cup. This will fill two people up and leave you satisfied.
Same with the Travelers Stew and All the others really.
So try that.....enjoy.”
“I especially like this economical popular choice from Augason for emergency storage purposes, as It offers 300 servings of 8 long life food varieties in a handy “grab and go” 6 gallon pail. Just add 1 cup of water per serving and heat. Figure at least 1 servings size needed per meal for each adult (or child over age 10) per day. So store sufficient water and have portable heating ability as well.”
“I bought this at Sam's Club. There is a fair quantity of food, but little variety. The biggest problem is that, for a one-person food supply, items are packaged in 7.5 and 15 serving packets, so you will be eating the same things repeatedly until the packages are emptied. Shelf life is for sealed packages, not open ones. On second thought, perhaps given the limited variety, you would be eating the same things repeatedly even with more discrete packaging.
This would rate another star if the packaging was more appropriate (not over four servings per container--two would be better).”
“The only one I usually buy, as always Augason is the greatest prep site there is I will only purchase food and supplies from them !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Augason for having sales and making my life a little better knowing I have something put up for my family. You guys are the greatest ! P.S. I SHOULD HAVE WON THE CONTEST LOL”
“There a lot of food in this bucket. Shipping was fast, nothing damaged in shipping. I opened the bucket and discovered 2 pouches had holes in them and the cheese powder was everywhere in the bucket. I emailed the company and they are replacing the 2 bags.”
