Here’s a handy one-week emergency food pack for one person. Ideal for all sorts of crises and the upcoming zombie apocalypse. Everything is conveniently packed in a plastic bucket. Store at home or car, or bury these in suitable strategic locations. You never know what kind of crap will hit the fan tomorrow. Or some later tomorrow, because freeze-dried food has a very long bunker-life. You can of course also repack these in your backpack and use them while camping if you like.

Fill your tummy quickly and easily

Each portion comes in its own bag. Open the bag and pour in hot water in accordance with the info on the bag. Stir well, close the bag, and let it rest for the time given on the bag. You can heat the food also on a small campfire or use the Tactical Foodpack Fire pot fire gel. In extreme circumstances, you can also “enjoy” these cold but cold water increases the resting time. The bag can be closed tightly and it won’t leak.

What the hell is freeze-drying?

Freeze-drying is a clever food-preservation method with a fairly long history. The Indigenous people living in South American Andes discovered two centuries ago that if they take frozen foods higher up in the mountains where the air pressure is lower, the ice crystals start to vaporize. The water content of freeze-dried food is very low, so it requires no preservatives but still has a very long shelf-life. This method was utilized more broadly 50 years ago for storing the food of the American special forces in the Vietnam War.

In modern freeze-drying, the food is first frozen quickly and then the temperature is slowly raised in a vacuum chamber. During this long process, water is removed from food, but the vitamins and nutrients remain. The process complies with the EU requirements and uses no unnecessary additives that would artificially increase the calorific value. Freeze-dried food gives you real energy and nutrition even in the most difficult conditions.
