>>622746I Have tried these and I did not like it. If you don't care about taste or texture and all you want is calories it was edible just not very good. Slightly off topic, but a few days ago a gentle anon from k who worked for mountain house fielded questions. I offered an idea for a high nutrition survival ration his response was lukewarm at best. I suggested roughly hockey puck shaped rations that would fit in a 18 oz cup like very many of us use. Making sure to fortify it with textured vegetable protein or a mix of other high protein and mineral & vitamin sources as well as fiber. Then pack the Mylar wrapped individual rations in a cross between their No 10 can and a Pringles or Pillsbury dough roll. The total calorie count should be between 650 and 800 per puck. The Idea was a compact sustainable long storage food source that would keep you going for a month or more without significant performance loss. Or it could be used to supplement a diet during times of scarcity for a fairly long time. Double wrapping it would just increase its shelf life. If you guys have and idea to improve or a criticism feel please be brutal I wan't to try and DIY a prototype this winter. This is the closest thing I can find conceptually and It seems Kinda shit.
