Emergency ration bars and energy bars

People often stuff their emergency kits with freeze dried and dehydrated food pouches, but neglect to add some sort of ration or energy bar. If you have to evacuate your area, it’s probable that you will have to be on the move for prolonged periods of time and might not have the time to boil water and prepare your pouch meals. We recommend that you include ration or energy bars with your disaster kit, because they provide a quick and easy way to fuel up when you are on the ago.

Emergency Food Ration Bars

These bars are enriched with vitamins and minerals and taste like a lemon butter cookie. They can withstand temperatures of -40 deg F to 300 deg F and will last for 5 years. Can be easily broken into 400 calorie segments.

Energy Bars

These energy bars taste great and will give you an instant boost. However, keep in mind that generally, the energy bar expiration dates are shorter compared to ration bars, so plan to rotate these out as often as needed.
