Springtail 48 hour survival packs

I have been knocking around the idea of putting out a 48 hour survival pack. it would consist of our large Utility pouch packed with Mountain house Freeze-dried foods.
Let me know what you think? I've got the price as low as I can (I have never seen mountain house products anywhere for less than retail).
The goal was to find a long term food product that will do well in a vehicle. Mountain House is good quality and tastes good. We considered MREs but given the heat of most autos, the life span of the MREs was probably less than 2 years.



Springtail 48 hour Survival Food Pack


Springtail is proud to announce that we have become a Mountain House Freeze Dried Foods dealer.
In order to help you prepare for an emergency, we have introduced a 48-hour food unit of Mountain House freeze dried foods consisting of three (3) full meals a day. This mobile food kit starts you and your family off on the road to disaster preparedness, and gives you the satisfaction of knowing you won't go hungry in an emergency. If you want to store the best...look no further than...Mountain House and Springtail.
The average person needs 2,000 calories per day to function at a minimum level. These are factory fresh pouches that have a seven year shelf life and since they are freeze dried, they will serve as an excellent food product to store in a vehicle for long periods of time.
Freeze-dried foods are easy to prepare-just add hot water...wait 10 minutes...and eat! If a heat source is not available, room temperature or cold water can be used, too. Because no cooking is needed, these foods require much less water and fuel than most fresh, frozen or dehydrated foods (further conserving these two precious commodities.)

Re: Springtail 48 hour survival packs

Joel likes everything! Plus, he's the one and only, FJoel.
I too thought this would fly. Maybe add as option to regular kit.
Looking forward to that side rack.
