Not bad at all Review by cla
If you're in a when the crap hits the fan situation, anything will taste fairly decent, and these bars are in my opinion pretty good. The lemon/vanilla favor pleasing, and the texture reminded me of a shortbread cookie on steriods. I agree with the other folks about the crumbly nature, it's a bit of a pain to eat. Also, the fact that they aren't individually wrapped for ease of rationing/consuming over a span of time doesn't make a lot of sense for a survival ration that's meant to sustain a person for days. For that reason alone, I decided to go with the Datrex food rations. (Posted on 10/25/10)

Pretty good food ration... Review by lcardenas27@msn.com
Sampled the Mainstay and Datrex food rations and thought the Mainstay had a nice lemon / butter flavor. The Mainstay also had a little more moisture but still crumbled quite a bit. The texture was a little gritty but tollerable. I would recommend that people sample both the Datrex and the Mainstay's to see which one they like. I personally liked the Datrex better but decided to buy a few of each to have a little variety. (Posted on 7/27/10)

Better than I expected Review by Babcombob
I have purchased these before. Like all the emergency equipment and products I purchase, I actually tried them out. I lived on one package for 3 days.
The taste was pretty good, like a lemon cookie. I wasn't too fond of the texture, crumbly and kind of gritty. Once the package is opened, the rest of the product is exposed to air, weather, insects, etc. The package is hard to reclose until you have eaten at least 3 portions.
Pro: Good taste, More vitamins and minerals than competitor
Con: Texture, Inability to reseal package (Posted on 7/10/10)
