A typical complete meal provides approximately 1710 calories compared to most other civilian MREs at 500-1000 calories

If you are ordering MREs after a disaster, good luck. Supplies ALWAYS VAPORIZE just after a crisis strikes. After Hurricane Katrina (August 2005), two major companies (a major TV Station and a major overnight freight company) came in and PURCHASED EVERY MRE WE HAD within hours of the disaster. After the Japan earthquake (March 2011) we sold out within hours.

Remember, when the Hurricane, Tornado, Earthquake or Disaster warnings go out (or hit), the time to prepare is over -- like trying to buy fire insurance when the house is on fire.

As we have recommended for years, IT'S BETTER TO BE PREPARED WAY TOO EARLY, than just one minute too late. Now is the time to GET PREPARED! Order sufficient for your current and future needs NOW!


How long will an MRE store for? MRE military entrees and side dishes will remain nutritionally good for approximately 5 years when stored at room temperature according to rigid military testing. We suggest storing them in a cool dry place, the same as with all food reserves to maximized their shelf-lives. Storage temperature DOES affect the shelf-life of MREs as well as ALL foods.

Other components in each MRE meal will vary for shelf-life like crackers, candy and cookies. We have typically found these items still very good tasting after years of storage though sometimes harder or dryer but still very tasty to eat. Cracker spread will have a shorter shelf-life, around 2 years. The outer heavy-mil waterproof bag adds an additional layer of protection to all inner components.

Each meal comes packed in a rugged clear bag to protect each meal from the elements and provides convenient meal organization. Everything you need for a complete meal is included.

MRE Advantages:

1. Each Entree Meal is Pre-Cooked, Ready-to-Eat
2. Can be Eaten Hot or Cold Straight from the Pouch
3. Long 5+ Year Shelf-Life
4. Complete Meal in One Package
5. Great for Emergency Evacuations
6. No Cooking, Preparation or Water Needed (except beverage)


Military MRE Legal Update

The government is cracking down on illegal sales of military issued MRE meals. The Military now requires all new cases of MREs to have plainly printed on the box: "U.S. GOVERNMENT, COMMERCIAL RESALE IS UNLAWFUL". Does this affect the commercial sale of military issued MREs? You bet. It is strictly again the law. For years, there has been a sort of 'black market' in MREs. Be careful when you buy MREs. Don't take chances on "Gun Show", or "off the street" MREs, besides being illegal to possess, they may not be edible to eat.

We highly recommend that you never gamble with your food reserves. Play it safe. These are your 'insurance policy'. Know your source. Nitro-Pak offers only Full Meal MRE meals and components that are legal to own (made by the same manufacturers with both military MRE contract overruns {e.g. main course entree and side dishes} and commercial components). All are fresh from the factory. We never sell old surplus MREs.
