Mar 13, 2014 /prREACH/ -- If people are hungry enough – and following a disaster when store shelves are stripped bare in a matter of hours, plenty of them will be – they will eat almost anything and be grateful for it. But if the crisis lingers and people start digging more deeply into their emergency food supply, they’re going to start craving some variety.
And that’s one of the reasons why Food4Patriots (www.Food4Patriots.com) has sold more than 13 million meals since launching last summer. The wide variety of food available in the company’s 72-hour, four-week and three-month emergency food kits will keep families satisfied for as long as they are using them.
“When we started putting together our emergency food kits, the first two things that came to mind were taste and nutrition,” said Allen Baler, partner at Food4Patriots. “We knew that those two aspects would be extremely important for people who had become dependent upon their emergency food supplies following a disaster.
“But a close third is variety because no matter how hungry you are, you’d rather not have to keep eating the exact same thing day after day. A variety of foods will not only provide different and essential vitamins and nutrients, but also a big psychological lift. And when you’re in survival mode, mental health is just as important as physical health.”
The food in Food4Patriots emergency kits can be prepared in less than 20 minutes and requires nothing more than boiling water. It is kept in easy-to-store Mylar pouches, which keep out air, moisture and light. Shelf lives are up to 25 years.
